Hi, everybody!
Welcome to our channel!
Today we will show you how to start your own
dropshipping business with Alidropship Plugin
which for certain will help you to get good
sales without making much effort.
Right now we are going to give you 15 easy
steps on how to launch your own online store
and get your first sales.
For the tutorial we have already installed
wordpress and plugin to our hosting.
Let’s start the process from theme selection.
Once you have installed AliDropship plugin,
you can proceed with theme setup.
AliDropship original plugin is only compatible
with the built-in themes, which you can check
and upload from our website.
Choose the one you like most of all.
You can easily switch between the built-in
themes without losing any of your settings.
We recommend you to install Davinci theme.
It has a flat Design Style and can be easily
customised.
According to our insights most of the successful
stores use this theme.
Our stores are not an exception.
Enter your WordPress panel and go to Appearance
=> Themes => Then click Add New.
We have already downloaded ONE from the AliDropship
site
Open, them click “Install now”.
Your theme installed successfully.
Now click “activate”.
Let’s take a look at our store now.
Go to your site.
Great.
We have already prepared and loaded all the
necessary design elements so we have them
in the WordPress media library.
So can do you - create pictures then add them
to WordPress so you can use them anytime  you need.
Now we can make some changes to our theme.
Let’s go to Customization.
Here you can change colors, pictures, texts
and add default pages and menus.
Click “Create”.
Let’s start with this option and get back
to our site.
Click Visit site.
Great, now we have new pages in the header
and footer
and several categories in the main menu.
Let’s check the tracking page.
On this page our customers will be able to
check their order status.
This page is activated automatically.
Go back to settings.
Scroll down.
You can make other changes any time you want.
We decide to upload our favicon.
Upload.
Choose your favicon.
Select.
Then you can upload your banner.
Don’t forget to save your settings.
Great.
In the Header section we’ll add our website
logo.
Click Upload and upload your logo.
Save your settings.
Now we will make some changes in the Home
page.
Let’s add images and short descriptions.
Main image.
Then top right image.
And them bottom right image.
Ok.
Let’s put some descriptions.
That’s not so difficult.
And here.
Save your settings.
Great.
Now you can go to About us Page and upload
your background image.
Save your settings.
And do the same on the Thank you Page.
Upload, Select and Save.
Go to Social Media.
In the Social Media section enter links in
the required fields.
Add your Facebook, Instagram and others to
the Social pages links fields.
These links will be connected to the social
media buttons placed in the footer of your
site.
Your clients will be able to keep updated
with your products and news from your social
media platforms.
Paste and save settings.
To be sure, visit your website again.
You can see your logo, your pictures, Your
favicon and your links.
You can easily find lots of tutorial how to
create a facebook page and how to start an
instagram account.
We have created them beforehand and now we
can just paste links we have.
On a scheduled basis we create our categories.
For that we go to Products-Product Categories.
Here we have an opportunity to add new categories,
edit them or use a quick edit function to
change our slug or category name.
Well, the most promising category is Best
Sellers.
Let’s edit.
To shuffle your categories in the order you
like continue with Appearance - Menus.
Select a menu to edit - Main Menu - Select
- Product Categories - View All
- select Best sellers and add to your menu.
It appears in the bottom.
You can move it to the top.
Check the website.
Look - bestsellers are on the top.
Now it’s high time to start your work with
Alidropship plugin.
Go to settings and click General.
Here you can change your site currency.
AliDropship Plugin uses US Dollars as a primary
currency set by default.
But you can choose any currency you want.
It depends on your target audience.
Here you can also activate additional currencies
that will be shown on your site for your customers.
Save your changes.
Next section is Pricing.
Select it.
AliDropship Plugin features a profound formula
for pricing markup – the amount added to
the cost price of goods to cover overhead
and profit.
In the beginning we advise you to Add Recommended.
On the left side choose either Rounding or
Tails.
Plugin will round the prices up or down to
the nearest integer if you tap on rounding.
You can set a specific cent value for your
retail price.
Let’s check.
49 and 99.
Then you need to save changes.
In this case the Plugin will apply these values
randomly to add it to the final price.
In this step we will set up PayPal gateway.
Anable your payment option then choose your
currency.
Then you need to put API username.
You can find it on your PayPall account.
Then put your password, copy your Signature,
put  your e-mail, brand name and your logo.
Paste it here.
Save your changes.
You can also add more payment gateways.
The ability to pay using credit cards will
lead to more website orders.
Don’t forget to save your changes.
We recommend to use SEO tools available with
AliDropship plugin.
To apply SEO settings, go to AliDropship => Settings
and shoose SEO.
Then you need to cctivate this option to generate
sitemap.xml and robots.txt files.
Sitemap is important because it tells search
engines about the content that you have on
your site and how often it’s updated.
It makes it easier for Google to index your
site and show it on search results.
A robots.txt is a file at the root of your
site that indicates those parts of the site
you don’t want accessed by search engine
crawlers.
Enable SEO meta data fields and SEO meta data
generator.
It will make your site more SEO friendly.
Meta Titles and Meta Descriptions are hidden
text elements on your page that are used to
describe your site on search engines.
These elements are meant to give a small taste
of what your site is about for people who
have come across your page by way of a search
engines.
Try to put SEO texts also on the main page
and to all of your main categories.
Let’s do this right now.
Our title, then we put our description 
and Keywords.
Save changes.
Now we need to go to Home page.
Customization - Home.
And we need to put article right here.
Save your settings.
Now go to Products and Product categories.
Edit your bestsellers category.
Put your article right here.
We skipped the process of creating texts and
have written some descriptions in advance.
They are optimised for search engines and
describe what customers can get in this store.
Offering discounts can be a powerful marketing
tool for your dropshipping online store.
If you want to create a discount, please go
to AliDropship ->Coupons, tap Activate Coupons
and click Add new button.
You can enable this coupon and name it.
For example, SALE15.
Discount type - choose your type.
Discount value - 15.
Usage limit is probably 100.
You can select some of these options.
You can set end date and start date.
Or also you can apply it to products or specific
categories or only shipping.
Now save your changes.
Let’s take a look at your website.
Now you have all these cute pictures, texts
and categories but you don’t actually have

Ok, we know how to solve your problem.
Let’s go to AliExpress in our AliDropship

select Send reviews to draft option.
All reviews in this case will be saved in
Comments.
If reviews on AliExpress have images attached
by the buyers, these images will be shown
on your site too if you select ‘Import reviews
with images only’ option.

plugin will import reviews with text only.
If you want to upload review images to your
server – just select this option in Import

It will take some time.

dropshipping. in the next section you choose
exclude people and then you put your keywords:
Drop shipping, Aliexpress, Amazon, and other
similar websites.

potential audience becomes smaller.

facebook feed and instagram feed.

Let’s put $7 per day.
It would be enough for our first test and
