My Dropshipping Journey with AliExpress

All the best.

 

Hi I just started my shopify store and I would like to know if you can help out with info on how to generate sales? Please. I am stuck and feeling very frustrated. What is this plugin that you are talking about for dropshipping?

Thank you!

 

You can find this plugin here https://alidropship.com/plugin/

As for promotion, it's difficult to say anything without looking at your store.

 

Hi,
How do you deal with clothing sizes on your own website? The aliexpress size chart is a chinese standard, and is different from american size standard. If you buy a size XL from aliexpress, you actually get a size M (american standard).

 

I don't sell much clothing.

 

Without reading this whole thread (heh, sorry) I do have to say I like the design of your site. It really evokes the cleaner aspects of AliExpress without getting bogged down in pop-ups and banners like they do sometimes - are you using actual AliExpress designs or APIs or something?

Also, I'm kind of curious, how have your experiences as an AliExpress affiliate gone? Is the revenue/profit-sharing worthwhile? How has the support been for order questions or website issues?

 

Hi Yaros
I've read most of the posts in this interesting thread, I must congratulate you on your availability to help others start their journei in dropshipping...really amazing to see around talent people like you and willing to help...thanks for the excellent job!
Also I am running an amazon affiliate store with no much sucess due to time constraints but the dropshipping business model is appealing...
My best

 

Very interesting thread , i am bookmarking this .
I am total new in it and really need some guidance if possible , i am very much interested to do dropship from Aliexpress , I heard Shopify offer easy store creation .. what is your suggestion on this . Also your website looks nice really

 

So this is your site ? and this also offer full ready webstore for Aliexpress dropshipping with those packages without hassle or anything from my side ?

I am very much interested if this is so , please send me message

 

I do not use AliExpress API or something, it is just a design from scratch.

AliExpress affiliate program has not gone, it works fine. May be you mean Alibaba CPA program that was closed recently.

 

yes, that's right.

 

Oh no, I'm sorry, I think I phrased my question poorly. I was just asking if your experiences with dropshipping have been good? Have you run into any kind of inventory shortages or shipping issues?

 

This business model works fine for me. There are no problems with stock at all. As for shipping there are issues of course sometime, but it does give any big troubles.

 

Hey, that's always good to hear! I've never had a bad time ordering from Aliexpress but I didn't know if maybe using them for drop-shipping would be that different. I appreciate the feedback, maybe I'll have to look deeper into this...

 

Hi Yaros, Currently I am running a store using WooCommerce. Can i switch to your AliDropship plugin? What will be the solution for permalinks that are already indexed by Google?

 

As far as permalinks, it depends on how you got them. There MIGHT be some way to set up some redirects in WooCommerce but I'm not too familiar with either the platform or what you're selling via WooCommerce, if it doesn't match up with what you're selling through AliExpress the redirect option might not work.

 

Yes, you can use alidropship Woo plugin on your existent site.

 

Hi Yaros, such an interesting and inspiring journey you have here and I'm very appreciative of how open you are with it.

I am interested in started a drop shipping business just like yours but from the UK. Shipping from Aliexpress takes 20-40 days to the UK as opposed to 13-20 days to US. Do you think this would make it less viable to start up in the UK? Would it be possible to run a business shipping to the US from the UK?

Thanks in advance

 

Don't worry about it. Just offer free shipping. People are ready to wait in this case.

 

Hello, which countries buy the most?
