your domain and hosting,you can now go to final step of
launching your website,which is to install WordPress.Now, WordPress is the tool,
we're going to use, to build ourecommerce website.Wordpress lets you build websites easilywithout any coding or programming.So, let's see how to install WordPress.To install wordpress, all you
have to do is click 'Add site'.Then enter a username and
password for WordPressand click 'add'.And now wordpress will be
installed on your new domain,which is trishirts.com.Okay! So WordPress is now installedand this means, your website

go to our website.We'll open a new tab.Now if we type tryshirts.com,and press enter,you can see that,we have a brand new website,on the name which we selected.So, this is how you can launch,
your website on the internet.So once you have
launched your website,you can now go to part 2 of
this tutorial,which is to Start Building Your
Ecommerce siteNow, instead of Building your
ecommerce site from scratch,we're going to first import a
sample ecommerce site.And then we're going to edit it, to make our own site.So, this is going to really speed-up
the processand will let you build your site in
a much faster way.So, to import the sample site,we're going to do 2 steps.First we're going to
login to our website.So to login to your website,all you have to do is,type /login after your site's address.Now press enterand it will take you to the
login page of your website.Now enter the login details,
which you selected forwordpressand then click login.So, now we've successfully logged in to our wordpress site.So this is the place, where
you can control your website.So once you've logged in, we can
now go to step 2 of importingthe sample site, which is to
install a theme in wordpress.So we're going to install
a theme called 'astra',which is going to let us
import the sample site.So to install the theme,just go to 'appearance'and click 'themes'.Now click 'add new theme'and then search for a theme
called 'astra'Now this is the theme which is
going to let usimport the sample site.So to install the theme,
just click 'install'.And then 'activate' the theme.So, now we've installed
the astra theme.Next, to import the sample site,just click 'astra' optionsand here you can see thatwe have an option called “import starter site”.So to import a site, first
click 'install importer'and then click 'see library'.Now once you're on this page,
just select 'Elementor',which will make it
easier for youto edit your site in future.So, we'll select that.And now as we're going to build
an ecommerce site,just click 'ecommerce'and then choose this site,
called the 'brand store'.So, let's click here.And here you can see a preview ofhow your site is going to look,once you import this sample site.So to import this site into
your site,just click 'install plugins'and click 'import this site'.So now the sample site
has been imported.So let's see how our site looks.Now if we go to this tab,you can see that, this is
how our site was before.It was completely empty.Now if we click 'refresh',you can see that we have got the
entire ecommerce site,into our site.Now this is the fully working
ecommerce site,which means if we click on a product here,you can see the details
about the productand you can add it to cart.And then, we can view the cart,and then we can also
proceed to checkout.So we get all of these
options right afterwe import the sample site.So now we have
successfully importedour sample ecommerce site.Okay!So once you have imported the
sample site,we can now go to Part 3,where we see how you can start
using this e-commerce site.So to start using our
ecommerce site,we're going to first set up
our store.Our store is the place, where
your customers can see your productsand then purchase them.So once you set up your store,your site will have your own products.and your visitors will be
able to buy those products.So let's go to our storeand you can see that we
have these sample products.Now to set up our store,
we're going to do 4 steps.The 1st step is to delete
all of these sample products.So to delete them, let's
go to our dashboardand then click 'Products'.And here you can see
all the sample products,which we have here.Now to delete the sample
products,just click here,to select all the productsand then click here,select 'Move to trash'and click apply.So now we've deleted
all the sample products.So now if we go to our
store and click refresh,you can see that all the
products have been removed.Once you've removed all the sample
products,next let's see how you can add your own product.Now to add your own product,just go back to your
products page.and click 'add new'.Now to add a new product,all you have to do is,Enter the product nameit's priceand some details
about the product.So first, let's enter the product name.I want to sell a tshirt,

payment method.Now if we try to buy this
product by clicking 'Add to cart'and then click
proceed to checkoutyou can see that it says “no
payment methods are available”.So in order to allow your
