GoDaddy Inc.‘s new plugin bundle expansion for its Managed WordPress Ecommerce customers features free access to over 75 WooCommerce extensions. The new extensions come from GoDaddy’s recent acquisition of SkyVerge, a leading WooCommerce product developer.
The new extensions give greater flexibility to create fully featured and customised WooCommerce platforms. The extensions almost double the value of GoDaddy’s WooCommerce plugins available for free for GoDaddy’s Managed WordPress Ecommerce customers. New plugins include the ability to accept payments from multiple processors, improvements to product reviews, social login integrations, Google Analytics Pro and Memberships, new digital or printable gift card offerings, and more.
GoDaddy is also introducing a new seamless experience and site construction flow for Managed WordPress Ecommerce customers to quickly build powerful online stores for their clients. Website designers and developers can now get their clients’ online stores up and running in 70% fewer steps. The plan includes a new built-in support dashboard, daily backups with one-click restore and daily malware scans and repair, including security activity auditing, remote malware scanning, and security notifications with guaranteed crackdown on any malware found on a client’s site.
James Eadie, Senior Director Brand Marketing at GoDaddy said:“Through helping UK entrepreneurs get online and grow their business, we know it is important for website designers and developers to have the right tools in place to create impactful online stores for their clients. I’m delighted to be providing our customers even more functionality at no further cost with WooCommerce, the world’s most popular open-source ecommerce solution, along with the strength and versatility of WordPress which powers over one third of websites online today.”
GoDaddy is also launching a new support message centre directly into the WordPress platform to centralise support and care. Customers can now get in touch with expert WordPress and WooCommerce GoDaddy specialists to address any questions, any time.
