We will be using Astra\u2019s Starter Templates, Elementor Page Builder and customizer to create and edit this webshop.<\/p>\n<p>Siteground will be used to register a domain name and web hosting. Via this provider we will install the SSL certificate and Email account. After the installation, I\u2019ll guide you through the basic settings in WordPress, and show you how to create products. <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, I\u2019ll go through the WooCommerce settings, and show you how to configure taxes, shipping, payment gateways and how to manage and process orders.
