I have been working on my WordPress website for about a month now. I want to start selling stickers and other little goods. It was between this and Shopify, but Shopify was expensive and with WordPress it was cheaper and you would pretty much own the site.

I knew it would be a bit harder but I didn't realize how much there is with building on WordPress. I have my plug-ins for the shop, designed it, optimized my website speed, made sure I have security like CloudFlare. I keep running into more things that make me second guess myself. I made myself a maintenance checklist for it.

But I don't see a lot of people with art shops that are on WordPress, so I had to really research and find what I needed. What I'm concerned about is safety, I heard if you don't upkeep the site or make a mistake it can get hacked, and I wouldn't want that for my customers.

How can I be absolutely sure that the website will be safe and continue to be safe? (Also when I am editing and viewing my site it is pretty slow, when i check the Google speed it is at 100 and 90. Is that normal?)

Hello, I am currently building an e-commerce website on wordpress.org. I have a product that has a monthly subscription as well as other plans. But the appearance of it on that product page, I would like to change. I want to change it to a drop-down menu instead of all of the plans listed.

The regular customizer won't let me change that part. I was trying to learn CSS but I'm still unsure about it and if it'll still be accessible after I change the code. I am new to WordPress, plugins, and coding, so any tips will be useful!

Edit: Changed my product to a variable product and just listed the monthly subscription as its own thing because the other option is behind a paywall. Thank you guys for the info!
