on YouTube ↗31m

" summary

Claim: Shopify is eroding WooCommerce’s lead and will lose market share unless WooCommerce fixes onboarding, pricing and ecosystem gaps. Cited numbers: WooCommerce ~3 million active installs vs Shopify reported ~200–500k (BuiltWith/Datanyze discrepancy), and a one‑second page delay costing roughly $1,000/month in lost revenue. Reasons: Shopify’s seamless onboarding and baked‑in features, hosted performance and curated app/theme marketplace. Recommended moves: turn on WooCommerce.com SaaS, simplify plugin pricing, prioritize e‑commerce themes, and invest in APAC logistics and merchant community.
