How to Start an eCommerce Store with Zero Investment (using Blogspot and PayPal)

Hi friends. Today I will tell you how you can open an online store with zero investment. You can sell your merchandise for absolutely free. An example of such a e-commerce website is

  • shop.khadivadi.com
Given here is step by step guide to setup an e-commerce store for free using Blogger and Paypal.

When opening your online business, initially you do not want to spend fortune to setup an online store. Don't worry. I will guide you how you can start your business and sell products for free.

Step 1: Decide Your Niche

What is a niche? Niche means a category that you will be working on. How to choose a niche for your business? You should recall the speech of Steve Jobs where he says that the most important part of a business is to find your passion. Because if you do not find your passion, anybody else trying it will fail.

Therefore do not settle until you find your passion. Your passion can become the niche. You can build a whole business upon that niche.

For example Alison and AcadFree are the sites that are focused on providing free education.

Khadivadi is the business which is promoting conscious fashion around the world

Apple: Its niche products include high end electronic devices. Most of its products are the result of the brainer behind the company, Steve Jobs.

In one sentence a niche means particular topic that you will be focusing on.

Step 2: Get a Domain Name

The second important part of the business is a catchy name. Do you know what Ray Kroc, founder of McDonald's says about the name? He attributes a significant part of McDonald's success to its name. His analogy behind saying this is that the name McDonald's represents America. On hearing the name McDonald's, our mouth start drooling.

Hence it always helps in choosing a fancy name for your business.

Beware of the existing company names. For instance you cannot should not keep a name which sounds similar to Apple or Google etc.

you should always choose a unique name which will benefit you and other businesses simultaneously.

Blogspot offers free domain name such as khadivadi.blogspot.com. You can also customise it (which comes without .blogspot) by buying a domain name. Example khadivadi.com. The latter one will be a better choice according to me.

You can connect top level domain with blogspot and you will get hosting and security of Google for absolutely free.

Step 3: Start Showcasing Your Items

Click on the new post option and attach pictures of your product. A detailed catalogue attracts customers attention. Write a short note describing your product.

Showcase your products on Blogger, sell your merchandise on blogspot

How to open an eCommerce store with zero investment, online store for absolutely free, integrate third party payment gateway in blogger (PayPal),

Step 4: Request Merchant Button from PayPal

Login or sign up to PayPal. Convert the personal account to the business account. This conversion will require a ID proof as per your country laws. For example in Bharat, PAN card is required as an ID proof. 

Free payment gateway, blogger and PayPal


Post this click on 'PayPal Buttons' option. Next, you should choose 'add to cart option. You can feed the price and shipping amount of the item. You will get HTML code.

Add price to your product using PayPal, PayPal merchant account,

Step 5: Paste the HTML code in blogger / blogspot

Copy the code from PayPal. Go to blogspot and choose HTML view in the post. Paste this code after the product description.

Step 6: Publish
