  • I will show you how to create and add product categories in Shopify and add subcategories pages to each category as well as adding the products to the categories for your Shopify store.
    Adding product categories in Shopify is really important because product categories are essential for organizing and displaying your products on your store, which makes it easier for customers to find what they’re looking for and this is especially important if you have a large selection of items that span multiple types or styles.
    By creating product categories on Shopify, you can ensure that customers can quickly browse through all the different options available without having to search too hard or scroll endlessly through long lists of products and by categorizing items into category pages on your Shopify store like “Women’s Clothing” or “Home Decor Items," visitors will be able to narrow down their choices more easily and find exactly what they need faster making them more likely stay longer on your Shopify store and make a purchase.

    Ty so much! Your instructions are very clear and helpful!
    I felt so overwhelmed and confused on how to manage my Shopify store before - I feel a lot more confident to deal with reorganizing my website now!

This way, my clients can just click an image instead of going through a drop down list. Do you have a video for this, or could you make one?

    Isn't the usual way to put products into collections to sort the store and the collections get into google search? You are saying it is essential to create pages and add products to the shopify categories to get into google search. Which is better? Shopify categories can be chosen from on product pages and presumedly in bulk, which I haven't done, because half of the categories I need are not there. Is that something different to what you are doing and would I need to do what you are showing if I'm already using collections??

    When I follow these instructions it adds the same products under each page. For example, you have beauty and jewelry. When I add a featured product to jewelry it also shows up under beauty. How do I stop that from happening?

    I’m making each category + subcategory. It’s duplicating in each subcategory.
    Example: category
    Beauty Products:
    Glitter
    Lipgloss
    Skincare
    When I add each glitter type to subcategory, it ends up in Lipgloss and Skincare.
    Any help left? 😅

    Hi there, thank you for uploading this video. I have created the category and subcategories page. to be more clear, the category page is INCENSE AND HOLDERS and the subcategories are INCENSE and then HOLDERS. let's say I have one product for the INCENSE subcategory and one product for the HOLDERS subcategory. When I click "featured product" on the INCESE subcategory, and then select the proper item and then click save, I can see it without problems in the right subcategory. However, when I click "featured product" in the HOLDERS subcategory and select the proper item and save it, the holder I just saved in the HOLDERS subcategory will now also be the item appearing in the INCENSE sub category instead of the proper item I had upload moments before.. Any idea why is this happening?
