WHY WOOCOMMERCE?
I chose WooCommerce because this plugin is the free ecommerce plugin solution for the most popular or the most popular WordPress user. According to BuiltWith, as of December 2016, WooCommerce is used by more than 42% of all online stores around the world! So that WooCommerce developers will always keep plugins still getting updates and always create new features to further improve plugin capability in running online stores. If you are looking to open an online store with WordPress then choosing WooCommerce is one of the best decisions you make.

WooCommerce is also a free plugin that can be downloaded in the official WordPress.org library. WooCommerce also has features in payment processing to support payments via Bank Transfer, Paypal, COD (Cash on Delivery), free Delivery and also credit card. WordPress theme developers also put more emphasis on this plugin by creating WordPress themes that support or support with WooCommerce, so you'll easily find free and paid WordPress themes that support WooCommerce plugins rather than with other online store plugins.

Not only is the theme developer a lot of WordPress theme support with WooCommerce but also many plugin developers who create plugins to add features that are lacking in WooCommerce. In addition WooCommerce is built using WordPress best practices both on the front end and back end. Woocommerce is an efficient, powerful, mobile friendly and intuitive plugin. The Dashboard page is cool and presents the full report as you need it.
