Viptor Says: Lemon Squeezy Drops a New WordPress Plugin
READING TIME: MIN
Hello, WordPress developers, bloggers, users, and lovers! It’s Viptor, back here to take you on another plugin journey in our favorite content management system. As you know, I get very excited every time there is a new plugin in the WordPress directory.
Therefore, today I’ll be talking about some fresh and juicy (pun intended) news. You’re probably thinking “What’s so exciting, Viptor, calm down?”. Well, the news is that Lemon Squeezy launched a WordPress plugin!
Now tell me that isn’t exciting! In today’s post, I will take you through everything you need to know about the launch. Let’s begin!
What is Lemon Squeezy?
Lemon Squeezy is a hosted eCommerce platform for digital products (eBooks, PDFs, photos, video, audio), subscriptions, and software licenses. By using the platform anyone can build an eCommerce website and sell and market their products.
There are no coding or designing skills required to use the platform and create a store. That’s something our WordPress development agency believes allows anyone to achieve their business goals.
You’d be able to accept payments with an optimized checkout without the usual worries about payment gateways, taxes, and deliveries. Moreover, growing your audience and building long-lasting customer relationships can be easily achieved through email marketing.
In other words, Lemon Squeezy can replace many of the tools you’d use for creating and maintaining an eCommerce store. It’s a great solution if you prefer to manage your entire business through one platform only.
Easy Peasy WordPress Plugin
On the 10th of November, Lemon Squeezy announced the launch of the official Lemon Squeezy WordPress plugin. Through this plugin, users will get the ability to sell digital products easily on any WordPress website.
Gutenberg compatibility and the addition of configurable “buy buttons” to items, pages, and posts are just a few of its features. The fact that there are auto-updates for themes and plugins is one of the aspects of the plugin that my WordPress development agency found beneficial.
If you want to succeed at distributing WordPress products, you need to keep up with updates, new features, and bug patches, which the plugin takes care of. All of this means that web users and website owners will have fewer concerns. The plugin enables you to grow and manage your business with simplicity.
Because an OAuth connection is provided, you can quickly link your Lemon Squeezy store to the plugin. The plugin will then automatically load your products into your site. Sellers will need to pay a monthly fee to use the service based on features.
Does the Future Look Juicy?
The platform, Lemon Squeezy, was created to compete with WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads – the established eCommerce plugins. Those behind the project are veterans of the WordPress community. Since the plugin has been on the market for a short period, it will suit simple stores’ needs.
Not to mention that maintaining products on one platform and a store on another may be complicated for users, especially if they don’t want to put the time in learning how both of them work before they start selling. My WordPress development agency knows how busy website and online store owners can be, so overwhelming them with more tasks isn’t advisable.
However, although the platform does have many advantages, WooCommerce is still the number one choice when it comes to creating powerful eCommerce websites. If you want to learn more about eCommerce stores, I suggest you check the blog of my WordPress development agency about related articles.
I believe that choosing the proper e-commerce platform can play a key role in the success of your business so make sure you do that carefully. However, Our WordPress development agency reminds you that WooCommerce rules the market currently.
If you have also been considering starting an online business and you need help with building a fast and optimized site, you’re on the right page. The WordPress developers at my agency are professionals with many years of experience in the development world. Hence, they will create you the site of your dreams.
As for the Lemon Squeezy WordPress plugin, we’ll have to see what the future holds. Since the plugin hasn’t been on the market for a long period, we’ll have to see where it will take us. I will give you more information on the topic, as soon as I can! For now, I have to leave you. See you next week!
