Hopefully my overly generic title didn't give a bad initial opinion.

I wanted to get some information in regards to eCommerce and how much software actually matters.

For example, we all know WooCommerce and Shopify dominate the eCommerce market, but is it worth building a store from scratch if you already have the programming knowledge to do so?

I've been trying to weigh up the pros and cons of both and it seems to be evening out quite a lot.

So I guess the questions I have are;
  • Would developing a custom store software (if you already had the coding experience) be worth it and make a viable difference when compared against Shopify?
  • Is it worth giving a store a landing page or is it best to just take the customer straight to the store so they can instantly see what products are available?
If anything I asked wasn't clear feel free to let me know and I can elaborate a little if needed. :)
Any help or information is appreciated as always!
