Build a store website with WalnutZite in 5 steps

A good store website does not have to be complicated. This post walks through building a store website with WalnutZite, from the first step to going live.

Step 1: Sign up

Go to the Start free page, enter your shop name, choose your website address (for example somjai-cafe.walnutzite.com), then enter your email and password. An empty website is created right away with a 14-day free trial.

Step 2: Set up the home page

Open the admin at /admin and start the drag-and-drop page builder. Pick the blocks you want, such as a featured-product banner or a product grid, and place them on the home page.

Step 3: Add products

Open the store module and add products with photos, prices and details. The product listing page is laid out for you automatically.

Step 4: Connect your own domain (optional)

If you already own a domain, you can connect it to your WalnutZite website with automatic SSL. If not, use the free subdomain for now.

Step 5: Publish

Check the page once more, then press Publish. Your website goes online right away on a global edge network.

That is all it takes for your shop to have an online storefront ready to sell. When you need more features later, upgrade your plan when you are ready, without moving your website anywhere else.
