Sea Freight Shipping Alibaba, Recommendation on methodology?

[MakeMoreMoves]

I am increasing my game on alibaba and with that my orders are getting bigger. So it is no longer feasible for me to just pay the supplier and they ship it my air and I get my package. So for those that have been doing sea freight shipping. Did you bother to learn all the terminology and whats good/bad? Like incoterms, FCL, LCL, IPF, EXW etc. You get the point.. Or does a freight forwarder take care of all this?

Also first time I am going away from Paypal and going to try T/T on alibaba.

Just asking for recommendations on what is the most streamline path to get a package to my door from sea freight. I am debating on learning everything now or am I overcomplicating the process and wasting time learning this stuff?

Supplier is asking for what port right now, but there are different types of ports: service, port of entry. Do all ports accept china shipments? Also, have huge fear of hidden fees that are gonna destroy my margins, HMF, MPF..
