Bedak kini kena dengan itu. Jangan boleh, lete beberapa tahun lagi. Baiklah. Syapify adalah lebih banyak di Kanada. Kedua-kedua ada di sini. Tidak, satu. Apa? Syapify adalah lebih banyak. Tidak. Baiklah. Jadi ini adalah masa untuk membeli Syapify dan WooCommerce. Pada awal tahun 2015, tidak ada banyak perbezaan antara dua. Biasanya WooCommerce. Pada awal tahun 2015, dia mempunyai perkara yang sangat similip. Pada awal tahun 2015, WooCommerce telah dibuat dengan otomatik dalam keadaan yang sangat kuat. Pada awal tahun 2015 juga, Syapify sebenarnya mengambil IPO. Baiklah. Jadi hari ini, Syapify mempunyai... Maaf. Syapify mempunyai... jika anda mempercayai keadaan, 37% sejarah di dunia. Ada sekitar 3 juta pembinaan aktif yang dipercayai pada pembinaan aktif untuk WooCommerce. Jadi itu sebenarnya berdasarkan Syapify mempercayai pembinaan aktif. Syapify mempercayai sekitar 500,000 websites atau pembinaan e-commerce. Baiklah. Jadi kenapa saya melihat itu berdasarkan data ini? Kenapa saya melihat Syapify sebenarnya mempercayai WooCommerce? Apabila sebenarnya WooCommerce mempercayai keadaan di dunia? Saya akan menunjukkan lebih banyak keadaan. Maksud saya, ini dari Detonize. Jadi ini adalah pembinaan ketiga. Saya akan menunjukkan bahawa ini sebenarnya dari pembinaan mereka. Jadi WooCommerce mempercayai 3 juta pembinaan aktif. Syapify sebenarnya mempercayai pembinaan e-commerce untuk 500,000 websites. Jadi pembinaan ketiga, data analitik, sebenarnya mempercayai pembinaan e-commerce, sangat menarik. Syapify sebenarnya mempercayai 242 websites. Ini berdasarkan data dari Detonize. Anda dapat melihat referensi di atas link. Dan WooCommerce sekarang mempercayai 478,000. Apabila mempercayai ranking, WooCommerce adalah pembinaan yang pertama. Syapify akan mempercayai beberapa pembinaan yang mempercayai pembinaan e-commerce di sekitar 5 atau 6 pembinaan. Di sini, di Detonize, pembinaan yang mempercayai dan mempercayai dan Detonize. Pembinaan Detonize mempercayai lebih kuat dan saya akan mempercayai untuk beberapa sebab. Jadi terutamanya, saya akan mempercayai dan mempercayai dengan Detonize. Jadi, saya akan beritahu kenapa mereka mempercayai apa yang mereka katakan dan apa yang tiga parti mereka katakan. Jadi, basically, there are three kinds of lies. Lies, damn lies and statistics by Mark Twin, who happens to have a cat. Jadi, saya akan mempercayai in your mind for now that just get you thinking about why that is, why the growth of WooCommerce is there and why Shopify is steadily growing. Nature of Shopify versus WooCommerce. So, basically, Shopify WooCommerce I'll just give you an analogy. It's about the same as Apple and Android. WooCommerce is open source. Shopify isn't. So, if you would compare between that, in terms of the infrastructure or the architecture, Shopify is just like Apple, it's super proprietary. It's easy to start for a noob. There's a lot of high quality teams and plugins and you have to pay for most of them. It doesn't burn a big hole in your pocket for a lot more power. WooCommerce, on the other hand, it's just like Android, it's open source, it's great for developers. You got a lot of high quality teams and plugins, but just as many for once and it's free. But it gets expensive for plugins and customization. So, the key thing I want to drive at is that the ultimate reason why Shopify is getting better and better is simply because it focuses on the customer experience, it focuses on onboarding. All you have to do is go to Shopify.com, key in your email address, password, whatever you want to do, sign up, immediately get a site. And WooCommerce doesn't help you do that because you still need to download WordPress and then you need to download WooCommerce and then you need to figure out that part, you go through the WooCommerce onboarding dashboard and then after that, okay, you still need to build your site because then you still need to install a team, you need to figure out the other plugins that comes with WooCommerce because a lot of times WooCommerce doesn't call out the box because it's still a lot of things to go. So, Shopify has a lot of things built in. And these are the key features in any store owner that they just want to get off the block very fast. So, just don't want to waste any time. If you want to start on a bootstrap, instead of get engaging developer a lot of things today, just very simple, just start off the block. So, this is why I say Shopify is disrupting the WooCommerce because previously you got to have a developer to build a site for you. And as disruptors go, now you can do it yourself. There are a lot of page builders out there like Wigs, Wibli, and so on killing pretty much the lower tiers of WordPress developers out there. Right? The best developers who are worth their salt probably still surviving. But today, just get a site started is simple. You no longer need to think so much about it. Shopify in Singapore, I do have the stats on the sites here. Shopify in Singapore is a recent entrant. I've got partnerships in years of partnership with Singtao that didn't work out. So, what happened was they decided to just wing it out on their own and last month they had a Shopify meet-up for the first time. So, I had a back and forth with Rizferna from Shopify. I said, the only thing that's stopping Shopify from really growing here in Singapore is that you don't have a meet-up. It's no community. So, probably took my advice. So, the first meet-up we had about 30, 40 people back about 7-8 years ago. So, we've got Michelle, good people around there, much-much developers, mostly store owners. So, the thing about WooCom is that yourselves that limit the customizations and control pretty much everybody agree about it. You want to do something that's really, really awesome. You can just open the hood, type in some code and get a lot more control because it's there in the code. Right? Well, here's the problem. You know, with great power, it comes with great responsibility as Peter Parker Sunko used to say. And most developers in the limited responsibility of their code. A lot of code out there for WordPress, not just WooCom, a lot of code out there is actually a very bad code. There's no standardizations. Right? I mean, WordPress does push for it, but a lot of people that actually don't follow through. Right? And that's something I wish WordPress developers me and you would push for more often because, you know, well, there's too much bad code out there and the problems still falls back to you because I mean, there's a problem. You got to bug that. Right? So, I forgot to show this slide. So, yeah, here's the thing. You've got to bandwidth overflow. How do you disrupt the disruptor? Okay? WooCommerce? Anybody here from WooCommerce? I thought there's your sponsor. Eh, where? No, it's hiding. Okay, and why? So, there are some ways that WooCommerce can actually fight back. Alright? If you base on my data nights slide, you know, Shopify is not far away. Alright? I'm just guessing the only reason why data nights detects only 400 and so 1,000 WooCommerce sites is because that although WordPress says that there are 3 million active installations, not all of those installations actually ping-pang. You know, because data nights are built with actually newspings from different domains to sense what platform you're running on. Alright? So, it might be 200 and so million active installations but nobody really cares about there's so many most of these installations. Right? So, data nights probably captures actually capture most 100, the first million likes a site and the next million likes a site as well. Alright? So, Bruce Lee needs to say be right like water, my friend and I think WooCommerce needs to bend a bit. Alright? WordPress actually offers both seamless onboarding.com and the limit's power, right? Everybody learned WordPress through.com in the first place. Alright? Before this, you all on blogger and then after that, you know, hey, WordPress.com came around and then you sign up, hey, WordPress.com it's much better than blogger. Alright? Seamlessness and then you realize, hey, actually there's a dot org and you can download the code and that's the beauty open source, right? Now, the thing about WooCommerce is that there's no seamlessness. You don't go to WordPress.com and then suddenly you get a WooCommerce sign and I'm puzzled since the acquisition of 2015 I was expecting that to happen but it didn't happen that way. I'm still wondering why. So, the only thing that automatic actually needs to do is just make WooCommerce.com seamless. Sign in, get the sign, hey, now I have WooCommerce store. Alright? And you can still give away that power for free. Alright? So, this is my first advice. Be like water. Turn on seamlessness in WooCommerce.com. Second advice I want to give is that, you know, okay, blah, blah, blah. So, third advice, start WooCommerce merchant communities alongside WordPress using meetups. I'm not sure whether I guess I've not been involved in meetups for quite a while but WordPress merchant communities need to spring up. That means that merchants themselves need to come in. WordPress developers probably need to have some kind of specialisation in WooCommerce you know, bring in matches into these meetups. Alright? Thirdly, is to empower and recognise more WooCommerce partners. Or rather, forfelling. Empower and recognise more WooCommerce partners. I understand that to be a WooCommerce partner is a very stringent process. I'm not saying that Shopify is more slack in this field but I'm sure that it's a bit more easier to be a Shopify partner if you can prove some code. Fifth, simplify and make plug-in pricing more sensible. If you've been to WooCommerce.com pricing is shitty. You got your WooCommerce main plug-in and then you want to add a bit more power here and there you got to install a ridiculous pricing of $149 of different type of plug-ins to make your site work but if it's on Shopify most of the stuff you know, it comes baited in. Right? Fifth, I'm going to say it's right now. Prioritise WooCommerce teams if WooCommerce is active. So if WooCommerce is active actually you want to install a team and team discover it has improved tremendously in WordPress these days the problem is that if you know that WooCommerce is active it doesn't seem to prioritize WooCommerce teams more. If you go through the keyword search you want to look for so the teams a lot of things doesn't get prioritised because for some reason that's how the team discovery works but now automatic controls WooCommerce why don't you do that? Right? You got to prioritise the eCommerce teams and that I feel affects the end user experience because users who are not developers and first install WooCommerce they want to search for a team they will go to the team installer and got WooCommerce activated and so on but when you search for a team none of the teams actually but in the Singaporean term CMI cannot make it but in Shopify that's a very different experience because all those teams are already eCommerce and you got very beautiful teams and next if I can give is that we got the strength of the quality of the third party WooCommerce plug-in a lot of stuff over there is really shit pardon my French but this is really shit so when something breaks you got find that developer and then hopefully that back and forth helps you out in Shopify something breaks they are held accountable for it because they are all under the Shopify ecosystem and something breaks they just kick you out of the Shopify app platform simple as that and Shopify is known to just turn off your app if it just doesn't conform to the standard lastly as anything in Singapore target service Asia for the next group goes immediately I understand that WordPress was actually looking at it couple of years ago because fun fact Indonesia has the second largest WordPress community outside of the English speaking world and sitting right across the door in Singapore about half an hour ferry ride okay or two hour or one and a half hour flight to Jakarta it's right there how many Indonesia saya yang kat tanganlah alright, all over there okay so it got a very active WordPress community in Indonesia lots of word camps way more than Singapore has ever had right thousands more developers alright and it got a focus on it Office Asia has always been tipped as the next wave of growth globally and I don't understand why automatic is not looking at it right, I don't know if there are any other automatitions in this part of the world particularly in Southeast Asia Philippines I understand there's a lot of there's quite a few automatitions but whether specifically they are looking at the next level of growth I'm not sure alright so back to more data okay these are the e-commerce platforms in Singapore e-commerce is still very dominant Shopify ranks third okay so Shopify is over here I think it's the green one I don't know alright, so for automatitions you don't need to worry so much it's still number one but Shopify is really gaining growth we got a lot of things happening in the Shopify space they started their communities and so on it's still very strong in Singapore because e-commerce stores are more rampant here in Malaysia how many Malaysians are here? one oh okay Indonesia and Malaysia okay alright so e-commerce is still number one Shopify is number six alright a lot more open source work in the other Southeast Asian countries so you go back to Singapore you know Shopify ranks higher that means there's a lot more users rather than developers here okay so a lot more open source work it means a lot more people who are developing sites rather than users trying to create this size themselves Indonesia very strangely e-commerce is number two alright Shopify is also number six over there so a lot of potential for e-commerce here alright, so part of my work when I first started out trying to Shopify e-commerce was trying to make that experience a lot more seamless that project is unfortunately on hold and because you know as a logistics company you got to move your parcels my development team is very small so I do have enough resources to focus on that at this point in time alright so that's what I'm giving right now these are my references if you wish to fact check open for questions alright rule thank you thank you very much yes please ask questions to her's rule if you have any I'll give you guys a minute to maybe think about something yep yes to video right oh say yeah hi sir I'll ask for Shopify for YouTube right, have you any experience in that using the Shopify link to put on a YouTube card you don't know whether it's too you mean like like a YouTube ad like because you can put a link right to your YouTube video and then there's a card that actually can show the Shopify products if I'm not wrong I believe that you could put any link there and it doesn't really matter whether it's a Shopify store or not oh there's authorized it's not an ad it's on the own video and then this Shopify authorized merchant ya ok now I get it it's authorized merchant not all links can I don't think I'm not sure if any links can be used but I think the authorized merchant for YouTube because yeah there's a wonder if you have any I'm not aware of it if okay now thanks yes sir hello there thank you for sharing with us today I came bit late because I was in the other conference previously my question would be what are the three main things that you think WooCommerce has to do to stay ahead of Shopify and be still number one in the future as our founding father would say ya but what would you what would you recommend them if you would basically WooCommerce needs to think outside of the box they are very developer centric and I don't blame them because you know it is developers for developers anyway but where e-commerce is concerned if you are a store owner you don't care what technologies underneath you just want damn thing to work right so they've got to look at from different perspective you got to look at from the merchant perspective alright and I'll be frank with you and I know some developers might feel this way alright I hate the WooCommerce I really didn't like it as a WordPress developer you know I felt that there were other e-commerce plug-ins out there that was far better at that time they were just pretty lucky that automatic decided that they are better something rather than the others but one thing I found in other plug-ins was that it was a lot more user friendly alright and that user friendliness needs to be more pervasive in WooCommerce whether it's on the plug-in or things or the seamlessness and other things so first thing that needs to happen is that they've got to turn on WooCommerce.com and open it up for seamlessness onboarding they got to do that the same way WooCommerce.com does it alright there's still so many people on WooCommerce.com writing blogs because they don't want to care about running a server they don't want to care about security they don't want to care about a lot of things and merchants particularly because there's money involved they don't want to care how that technology works just want the damn thing to work alright so if I'm WooCommerce I would consider how to sas my WooCommerce that's the first advice that I give second advice I would give is that you've got to start investing in the APEC region because that's where the next lap of e-commerce growth is going to be it's no longer the US it's no longer Europe it's Asia in this part of the world alright and if I'm a serious e-commerce platform I got to put somebody here and start building that community investing in that community even more the thousands of WordPress developers in this part of the world in India in the Philippines in Indonesia and that's untapped I feel tap them alright third advice I would give is that you have to partner the shipping industry and any good e-commerce platform WordPress solve tries to solve this problem to simplify at the last mile Shopify is doing it them well they started working on it they have now a way to connect with all the shipping platform alright WooCommerce all the box does not do that you got to install some plugins to do that you want to do rates you got to download the table rates API sorry not table rates plugin Shopify has that big thing you want something more fantastic you got to upgrade your plan okay so partner with the shipping guys like me cool cool thank you thank you for the question anybody else wants to ask anything okay we have one more question yes so my question to you will be WooCommerce is doing a lot of new things from version 3.0 and we'll see probably a lot of more different things in 3.2 3.3 and a lot of different things so how those kind of stuff could actually increase the growth of WooCommerce especially like probably we'll go beyond custom post type and WooCommerce will have their own database table and other things automatic will have actually commerce tied up with Jetpack and they will actually offer it as a source in WordPress.com do you think like those kind of initiative could actually change the game and it could actually have a good reflect on what will happen in 2018 and 19 first these are all my opinion so I lose before automatic those are some good strategies that they're trying to take under the hood things like shifting away from the WP Post meta and focusing on CRUD which is delayed finally CRUD that will definitely help performance as you all know WooCommerce is still quite weak on performance but Majento is even shittier but Shopify is CRUD from the beginning and it's hosted speed it's really about speed one second of waiting time in e-commerce site if I'm not wrong according to the study don't quote me on this because my marry is quite bad one second of an e-commerce site that earns about a monthly average of $30,000 equates to $1,000 super for loss and WooCommerce out of the box because it's a self-hosted platform and you've got a developer that doesn't know shit doesn't know how to optimize a server doesn't know how to optimize WooCommerce doesn't know how to optimize the page speed and so on we're going to lose a lot of money because of the page speed alright so lose a lot of some ways but I think in my opinion they forgot to sasit I don't know about Jetpack frankly I'm not sure whether it's the right way to go because Jetpack is a plugin for me sorry Jetpack guys I still think it's shit but it's too bloated Jetpack is really bloated all the hood I feel the best way to go is to start from WooCommerce.com not Jetpack alright do we have any more questions from the audience alright one more question okay you can have my mic can we back up the Shopify data and convert it to another form another kind of software can we back up Shopify in the nutshell the data because you see they actually you buy the plan of Shopify so basically the data is with them it's a very good question I can't really say for sure because I'm not really a power Shopify user I'm going to ask my colleague for that but my understanding is that probably you can to export the data out because Canada is very strong data loss loss so you need to be able to transfer it over to other platforms and that has to be accessible from the beginning but yeah there are also plugins that allow you to do that like the litmus convert if I'm not wrong where you could migrate from one platform to another believe Shopify is one of these platforms as well alright moving on come on people don't be shy ask questions no no questions at all alright so let's wrap this talk up thank you very much Hasrul for your excellent talk so you all
