As eCommerce experts, the team at Skynet Solutions is always working with small businesses to determine what needs they have they can’t be addressed by the current plugins available for WordPress. One of the most common issues we experienced is that eCommerce stores will often become frustrated with the inability to customize their cart and checkout pages with WooCommerce to make them reflect the rest of the website theme. Checkout Styling for WooCommerce and Elementor adds two new widgets to Elementor PRO to allow you to style your WooCommerce Cart and Checkout with the Elementor page builder.
Following the installation of the plugin, the standard WooCommerce Cart and Checkout pages are extremely limited by design. This creates a cohesive look for businesses that use the plugin but doesn’t allow for the individuality needed to shine against other eCommerce competitors. Historically, the only way to change this was through the use of custom coding or leveraging a plugin that may not be compatible with your existing template or page builder of choice. To combine the best of both worlds, Checkout Styling for WooCommerce and Elementor unites the power and popularity of Elementor PRO with WooCommerce to provide expanded functionality and extra styling options for WooCommerce Cart and Checkout pages.
Unlike other plugins that may completely override your existing theme or template options to provide customization, Checkout Styling for WooCommerce and Elementor adds two new widget options to further improve your store design options. After installing the WordPress plugin, just remove the WooCommerce short code that is currently in use and add the designated CSWE widget through Elementor Pro to match the page you are editing. Once done, you will have new and extensive options to easily customize your WooCommerce Cart and Checkout page.

There’s a good chance that you have invested a lot of time and money into your website. And, if something were to happen to it and you lost that data, you would likely be devastated. This is, unfortunately, a reality for many small business owners that haven’t invested in a proper way to create backups of their website and associated data. But why exactly are website backups and important and how can you ensure they are being done?
While many people are aware of how important the content on their website is or that ranking well requires your website to be user-friendly, they generally aren’t aware of the more technical aspects that come with effective SEO. As one of the more effective backend ways to improve your website SEO, schema markup provides relevant information to search engine robots to further explain the importance of your webpage. In this article, we will look at why schema markup is important and some of the ways you can use it to improve your SEO.
The rise of importance or schema markup become more apparent in 2011 when major search engines like Bing, Yandex, Google and Yahoo began collaborating to develop schema.org. This microdata can be used to apply context to search queries to help improve the quality of the search results that can be obtained through the search engine by a user. This is especially important for ambiguous webpages that may need a little more context to be understood. Schema markup is a clear break from HTML markup that is used to adjust display information since it is completely contextual to what the page content is.
Search engine ranking metrics are constantly changing, and, for that reason, it is hard to provide that schema markup provides a direct boost in organic search rankings. One proven benefit of schema data, however, is that it gives a boost to rich snippets and placement in search engines for voice search and provides a more attractive link for users. For instance, one added benefit is that your overall rating will show up for reviews that are on product pages or any page that has a review system built-in or it could show actual product pricing through the search engine at any given time.
As you might imagine, this support can improve click-through rates and further improve your SEO metrics that contribute to organic growth. But properly implementing schema markup is critical for the best results possible. While this may seem like a challenge to many small businesses, the team at Skynet Solutions is here to make it simple. With over a decade of experience in great web design, marketing and SEO, we can help ensure that your eCommerce website has all of the pieces needed to find success online.
