We help people choose the right platform to build their online store, explained plainly and with no hype.
Why we exist
Choosing an ecommerce platform is one of the most important decisions a new business makes, and one of the hardest to undo. Yet most information online is either written by the platforms themselves or buried in jargon. We started Best Online Shop Platforms to give sellers clear, practical, honest guidance.
Who we are
The BOSP Editorial Team, Ecommerce editor. We build and run test stores on each platform we cover, track pricing changes, and write up what we find in plain English. No platform pays for placement in our rankings.
What we cover
- Platform reviews, including our in-depth Shopify review
- Head-to-head comparisons
- Best-of guides for specific types of stores
- Step-by-step guides for starting and growing a store
Our promises to readers
- Independence: no platform can pay to be ranked higher.
- Transparency: we explain how we review and disclose how we make money.
- Accuracy: we regularly re-check prices and features and correct errors quickly.
