Shopify has a blog problem, this creates a really simple and straightforward opportunity for freelance designers/programmers

Earlier this year I settled the editorial decisions I needed for a lot of blogging going forward, and recently I've experimented (repeatedly) with the idea of having a blog on a separate platform, or using Shopify's system.

Having two sites would allow me to blog on a WordPress site, but creates... two sites, therefore complicates everything more. More maintenance, design, etc. etc.

I am actively seeking to make my life easier so I am foregoing two sites and learning to live with the limitations.

A personal struggle to the surprise of no one.

You can use WordPress and thread Shopify through it via the "buy" button, which is a shortcut for small stores and/or larger stores where you are very comfortable in WordPress.

You cannot use Shopify and thread WordPress through it.

Which is a shame.

Because Shopify's native blog platform is fucking horrible.

An independent graphic designer who can program, or a programmer who can design, cannot solve Shopify's problems.

They are inherent to the system and likely built on legacy code Shopify doesn't want to update because it'll cost a fortune.

I'll just be mad about this until the market forces them to address this opportunity and they revamp their blogging platform. That's fine.

Or maybe decades will pass and they won't. That's... fine too. I guess.

I am rambling this out because if I were in the business of freelance graphic design and/or programming I would jump on this immediately. I used to be and always shared opportunities with friends and it was fun and I kinda miss that aspect of the life.

I'm not in that business, and I have in-house programming, please don't pitch me, but do consider pitching... pretty much everyone with a Shopify site and a blog as Phase 01 of your plan, and everyone who has a Shopify site and does not have a blog as Phase 02 of your plan.

Here is what I would tackle:

Shopify blogs have two structures: "blog" and "blog post".

A blog in Shopify is essentially a category in WordPress, with more limitations, such as, a blog post can only be in a single "blog". That sucks but it means your life as a designer/developer gets more interesting.

Most Shopify themes come out of the box with 1 "blog" and 1 "blog post" template. They are exceptionally simple, usually. I would build a few test templates and offer them to clients "these will be modified to fit your direct style."

For some reason -- I'm guessing focus -- most blogs in Shopify have the image on top. If you structure "image on the left, image on the right" as options you can offer clients, you've just tripled their layout capabilities.

For another reason, I don't know why, but almost all shopify blog post templates I've seen do not have sidebars. Which is insane?! You can control that from the fucking "blog post" template so it would be an easy win.

You could work around the "a post can only be in one blog on Shopify" issue by having a sidebar that pulls the latest 3 (or 5 or whatever) posts as links for other blogs on the site: TEST SITE has 3 blogs. When you're looking at a post on BLOG 01, in the sidebar, you see a link to the latest post on BLOG 02 and BLOG 03. Similarly, when you're looking at a post on BLOG 02, the sidebar has the latest post from BLOG 01 and BLOG 03 (and so on)

The template I use, off the shelf, uses the Shopify's user name and details for the author of the blog. Once a blog post is created, in Shopify, you cannot alter the author. This is dumb as fucking rock salt on slug popcorn. But, again, systematic, I'm pitching ideas on ways around it -- exclude this and just use a CUSTOM DATA field to allow the Shopify owner to pick the relevant author. This cuts down on the need for extra Shopify users, tremendously, and builds in the opportunity for WordPress-style author footers on blog posts.

Emulate the very common filtering on products -- dropdowns, sorting mechanisms -- with tags on a sidebar on BLOG templates. This will be tricky because you cannot hook into the Search & Discovery function, but it's absolutely no where near impossible. And would be amazingly useful.

Overall Shopify is a decent platform with significant advantages.

There blogger apps but holy shit that is so unnecessary. If they were a one-time-fee, it would be fine, but they aren't, they're generally $20+/month.

I'm not interested in paying for a service that ties me into another tech system that I am fucked if they go out of business, jack up their prices, introduce a feature I don't like, or remove a feature I do like.

For something like a blog system.

Which relies HEAVILY on very structured, single-built, near-infinitely-reused templates.

A low effort, high yield opportunity exists for independent designer/programmers to come up with a suite of designs and say "hey with some very simple modifications, we can take 1 of the following, apply it to your store, and dramatically increase your in-site blogging opportunities."

You start with a base "blog post" template and a base "blog" template and then every time someone hires you to add a feature to theirs, using Shopify's core tech -- you're just applying paint -- you now have a second set of templates.

Recycle forward.

One time fee per client -- likely low, but again effort is low since 90% of the code is re-used -- and each time you secure a client, you have opened a networking door.

Just make sure you include instructions and/or a premium service for when the customer upgrades their theme version -- "occasionally your theme author will upgrade, and this may get lost... so do the following to bring it back and/or we'll handle it for you for $X and Y-days notice."

Business opportunities are everywhere.

Good luck!

I repeat don't add me to your pitch list, I have a programmer in-house, but use this idea to make a business or extend yours!

This isn't financial advice, it is annoyed rambling!

Very cool ita water bottle kickstarter :0

Just found this Kickstarter and I'm sharing it here bc it's super cool!! There's 11 days left and it's only 73% funded, so I wanted to share it in hopes that it gets more traction! If these interest you, please help out! There's a lot of cool features and I listed out a few that would help me out specifically below! (It's a bit long- my bad, I had a lot to say ahahha)

(link)

This is the absolutely perfect thing for me. A little fun fact about me: I bring a big water bottle (64 oz) to school every day. (My irl friends can vouch for this) My fav thing about it is the holder it came with- it holds my water bottle but I can also put my pencils and phone in the pocket. Another fun fact about me: I love enamel pins and my fanny pack is adorned with them.

However, l've run into issues with both of these aspects. For one, my water bottle holder only fits the big 64 oz one, and I don't use that water bottle for anything besides school bc it's too big. I'll then use another, smaller, bottle- but I never have a holder that fits it so I have to hold it by hand, which I dislike. Also, I prefer to hold my big water bottle by the handle bc straps don't really work when I have a backpack on- but if I don't hold the straps of the water bottle holder it will often slip off and fall. With my enamel pins, i've run into issues with my pins falling off of my fanny pack and now I'm scared about loosing my pins.

This ita water bottle bag fixes all of these problems. It fits up to a gallon water bottle, which means my 64oz one will fit- but since it's designed to be a bag rather than JUST a holder for a certain size of water bottle, any water bottle can be put in it. For one, when I don't want to carry around my giant water bottle, I have my Owala, which would fit in this ita bag as well. The larger bag size is also helpful be you can fit other things in there as well. (And don't worry about things falling out-there's a drawstring at the top to keep everything snug!) The ita bag also still has pockets to keep my phone, pencil, and everything else I want inside!

The multiple ways of holding the bag is also sooo useful as well. There are short handles on the bag, which means I don't have to worry about it falling off the bottle. It ALSO means I can remove the straps (they're detachable) and stop accidentally breaking my water bottle 😭 (long story LMAO. In short tho, the straps hang off the side of desks and I like to stretch my legs a lot... guess what happens when you unknowingly put your foot through the strap and then pull down 💀 my irl friends can also vouch for this one unfortunately) Lastly, the ita insert feature helps me keep my pins safe and will soothe my anxiousness over loosing my pins. I liked my fanny pack for my pins bc I used the bag often and I could show them off a lot- but I would probably use this ita bag 10× more than my fanny pack bc it's just so useful and convenient.

Another thing I find important to mention is that though they are helpful for everyone, these bags were designed especially for people with chronic illnesses or disabilities, like POTS. They are great fashionable accessibility tools. The creator themself has POTS and details why they decided to create water bottle bags and what features help with accessibility in their Kickstarter.

There are so many other features that I didn't mention that are really really cool, but I already ranted quite a bit (sorry) so you can check them out in the kickstarter!

Does anyone have any advice for migrating from Etsy to Shopify? I have been considering it for some time and I'm beginning to think it's time to take the plunge now. But I also still want a way for overseas customers to buy, too.
