Jetpack Boosts Your WooCommerce Website

 

Online selling is more than just selling products. It involves selecting the right tools to make your customers experience better, save time and increase efficiency. WooCommerce seamlessly integrates with Jetpack, one of the most versatile WordPress tools.

Let's look at how WooCommerce & Jetpack can work together to enhance store functionality, protect customers and save time.

What is Jetpack?

Automattic developed Jetpack, the ultimate WordPress toolkit. It is part of the company that created WooCommerce and WordPress.com. You don't have to load your site with multiple plugins to access the features you need. If you don’t need the entire package, you can disable the features that you don’t like and enable the ones you do.

Jetpack's functionality can be used by WordPress.com. This means that there is no additional load on your server which could slow down your site's loading time. WooCommerce Shipping Extension and WooCommerce tax extension use Jetpack to authenticate external requests.

Jetpack can help you improve your store.

Send packages easily

The WooCommerce shipping extension saves time and simplifies shipping. Print USPS and DHL labels directly from WordPress. You can also charge your credit card for them. This will allow you to save up to 90% on shipping.

You can ship internationally and nationally with this feature. No need to wait in long lines at the post office. Simply drop your labeled package in any dropbox box, or arrange a pickup at your home. Jetpack allows you to connect to USPS or DHL and charges your credit card for labels.

Taxes can be calculated without any hassle

Tax calculations can be confusing and overwhelming depending on where your customers and business are located. The WooCommerce tax extension is free and automatically calculates all taxes by city, state, or country.

WooCommerce tax can also be powered by Jetpack. This allows the extension to calculate national and international taxes.

Real-time backup of your store

Your online store can suffer if your website is down for any reason, whether it's been hacked or a plugin conflict. Every minute that your website is down means you are unable to make sales.

Jetpack backup provides real-time backups. It saves a copy of your website every time you sell, update a page or add a product. Backups are kept separate from your host so that they can't be compromised in case of hacking and can be restored even when your site goes down. What's the best part? The best part? You don't need to be a programmer or have any programming knowledge. A backup can be restored in just a few mouse clicks. This Jetpack feature is expensive, but it will give you peace of mind.

You can manage your store from anywhere

You're a busy entrepreneur and you might not be able to sit at your computer all the time. It's possible to be on the road sourcing new materials, testing ingredients or meeting suppliers. However, this doesn't mean your online store should be static.

The WooCommerce App allows you to manage your website from anywhere with ease. You can create, edit, and publish products, manage the entire order process, from fulfillment to sale, and track your store analytics from your mobile device.

Jetpack allows you to connect your store to the mobile app. It makes it easy for you to use the tools without any complicated configurations.

Make sure your site is secure and safe

Online stores are responsible for more than their products and content. You also have to protect your customers' personal data. Security is therefore a top priority.

Jetpack offers a range of security features that can be purchased or freed by customers, including:

  • Free Monitoring : Receive an alert when your site goes down. This will allow you to troubleshoot the problem and get it up and running again as soon as possible.
  • Brute force attack protection (free). Block malicious bots from logging in.
  • Secure Sign on (free). Protect your login process by requesting a verification code from certain users.
  • Get a free activity log: A complete list of all that has happened on your site, including plugin updates, page additions and code changes. You can also see who did each action.
  • Jetpack Scanning (paid). Set up automatic malware scanning to protect your site even when it's not. You can get real-time alerts when anything suspicious is detected and you can fix most of the known problems with just one click.
  • Jetpack Antispam (paid). Automatically remove spam comments from your website and redirect customers to unsafe content.

These features combine to provide you with full-scale security you can trust. Find out more about security for your online store.

Make sure your store loads quickly

Slow websites can discourage customers and affect your search engine rankings. Jetpack offers a range of tools to speed up your website without the need for complex code or configurations.

  • A WordPress CDN: Use WordPress servers to serve images, photos and CSS files. This reduces the load on your server and speeds up your site. It is especially useful for international stores. Find out more about CDNs.
  • Video hosting: Upload videos to your website without paying for expensive, ad-packed third party services. They won't slow your site down because they are loaded directly from WordPress servers.
  • Image lazy loading: Delay the loading of images so that site visitors scroll to the place they are on the page. Customers won't need to wait for images to load in seconds or minutes.

Help customers find products quickly

Potential customers should be able to find what they are looking for quickly on your website. They might abandon your store in favor of a competitor.

Jetpack Search is a fast, dynamic search engine. To quickly narrow down your product catalogue, customers can filter results by date and tag. You don't have to scroll through menus and categories in order to find the perfect fit.

Jetpack Search is a premium tool that includes unlimited searches. However, it's usually much cheaper than other options. Find out more about site searches for WooCommerce.
