    Thanks Yaros, that answers my question.

    We recommend you choosing original version of AliDropship if:
    • You are making your first steps in the whole ecommerce sphere and you don’t have a solid previous experience in the field;
    • You’re creating a brand new online store from scratch;
    • You are looking for a full-scale solution that contains all the necessary features in a single package and doesn’t require you to search, install and pay for any additional plugins and themes.

    Yaros, I literally signed up to this forum based on your thread. I am on page 5 of your journey and to be honest I am utterly blown away by your transparency, honesty and willingness to help others. If you have not turned this content into a course to sell for yourself I would be amazed. Well done and thank you, I look forward to reading the rest of these pages. I hope all is going well for you.

    Hi again Yaros,

    Checking out your worldofharrys website, I see that none of your products (as far as I know) shows any kind of branding in their images.
    Do you purposely only import products that don't have any kind of brand logo in it or do you edit them out from the pictures?

    I've just started a jewelry store with your alidropship plugin, but I've noticed that most of the products have their brand logos in the pictures, hence, I'm not quite sure if that would be a problem.
    What's your take on this matter?

    Thank you so much for your input and keep up your great job!

    Yes right, I am trying to take images without any watermarks or remove them where it is possible.

    How come when importing, it sometimes gets stuck during the uploading stage and nothing happens? (progress bar keeps repeating.... instead of "product has been successfully uploaded" message)

    clean the cache or re-install your browser. Something blocks the process on your side.

    Привет yaros, I've just read over your thread. It's really inspiring to see what can be done with AliExpress. I was always under the impression that it's nearly impossible to run a good dropshipping store with AliE. I've just started my own journey with dropshipping and currently I'm trying to hype up my store launch, but I'm really worried about wasting money on advertising, especially since I'm trying to replace my income with this after losing my job. I ran a store with a bad niche before this and wasted more than $200 :eek:

    Can you provide some tips on how to find good Instagram influencers to advertise your store? There are people with lots of followers but whether those followers will buy or just like your page is a worry.

    First of all look at content they are posting on their groups. If they post too many ads, such groups are useless for you.

    Hi Yaros,
    Excellent story about your Harry website.
    How does it work the best if you use multiple suppliers in one shop as the products come from various locations? The packages won't arrive at the same time or as one. Isn't that strange for a costumer who orders from one website. Thanks!

    Hello,
    I am facinated by the way you went through your journey of selling harry potter items. I opened a store with the same theme as you did http://www.simpleby.com it is 4 months old. I hardly had 4 orders till now. 2 from Jewellry, 1 from Toys and 1 from kitchen items. I am spending $200 every month for facebook ppc campaigns , i bought alidropwhip plugin and also set up social rabbit too. No luck till now. I have bought the site hosting for 3 years too. I am spending money but no luck in sales. Please help me how to get some sales. Please ...

    Thanks,
    Sree

    it is stated on my Thank you page and shipping policy that products can come in different packages because we use various storages. No complaints regarding it.

    May be you should try other marketing strategies? For example I was never successful with FB ads myself. And honestly saying I never recommend creating such sites that are devoted to many niches like in your case. There is no point to build another AliExpress. And you even did not edit product titles on your store... I think nobody will buy anything from your site when see such item names.
