Shopify is currently $29 a month, which may sound expensive, is actually great value for money. For starters, you can a scalable server you never have to touch that is ready for whatever traffic you throw at it. The same could not be said for that of a Wordpress site - which may crash if too much traffic is thrown at it.

The subscription also includes heaps of tools that will help make your store a success. SEO assistance, ready to go ecommerce solutions, loads of great free themes to name but a few.Just think, if you're selling t-shirts online you only have to sell 2 and it's paid for itself. A great investment really.

The only other fees you will need to factor in is that of your payment processor. These are never very high, typically around 2% and a transaction fee of 50 pence or so.

For the internal pages, Shopify provides a sidebar style CMS where you can run through the pages section by section and change text, images, and dynamic content to name but a few. It's important to note that when using premium themes the editor may be somewhat overwhelming with lots of options or it may be simplified too much that things become difficult to change. If you are wanting a site where you can tweak every pixel - you'd be better using a platform like Wordpress or Webflow.

For editing things like product data or blog posts, Shopify provides an easy to use WYSIWYG editor.
