In this video I am going to show you how to create and add blog posts to Shopify 2.0
You can use this same information to post to any Shopify Theme and version but the front end look and feel will be different based on the theme that you choose.
If you are interested in any Shopify Expert Services, please contact me.
There are some cases where I may look at the request and do it for free, otherwise, I will let you know if it is billable.
Although I try to answer as many questions as possible, looking at the THEME's documentation is the way to go. I am often asked questions that are right in the documentation for the theme they own.

Pros of using Shopify:
Quickly Start and Launch a Store
Thousands of FREE Apps to help you sell and run your store
Inexpensive if using free apps but can get expensive if you use a lot of paid apps.
Low Learning Curve
No Need for a Merchant Account
No Need for a Shipping Carrier Account
Easy to Add Apps, Change Themes and Update
Easily Add other Sales Channels (ie: Facebook, Instagram, etc.)
Easily Add a Buy Now Button onto an EXTERNAL website. (You can add a product button called BUY NOW to a website that is not hosted with Shopify but would process the checkout through Shopify
Cons of using Shopify:
There is a 3 option limit for products. Example: If you sell t-shirts and have Size, Color, Material (you can add all kinds of variants to these options like small, medium, large, etc.) but Shopify has a 100 variant limit for these so you would need an app to extend the OPTIONS to get you past the 3 options threshold and the 100 variant threshold.
You use Shopify Payments, otherwise, if you use your own merchant account, then they add additional fee to your monthly plan plus you will pay a percentage to Shopify in addition to your existing Merchant Account and Gateway Fees.
If you add another Shipping Carrier (Shopify's built-in carrier is USPS) if you add: FEDEX, UPS or other carrier there is an additional monthly fee but this is cheaper than upgrading to the next plan on Shopify.
No direct access to the Shopify database without an app via Api
No direct backup mechanism without an app. You can export the products, customers and orders within Shopify but that is it. You would need an app to extend this functionality.
