Last updated on January 16, 2023 @ 3:02 pm

WooCommerce is a powerful eCommerce plugin that helps you sell anything online. A product in WooCommerce is a physical or virtual item that you sell on your WooCommerce store.

Products can be both simple and variable. In this article, we’ll show you how to add both types of products to your WooCommerce store.

Simple Products

Simple products are physical items that you ship to your customers. They have a single SKU and price. To add a simple product to your WooCommerce store, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your WordPress site and go to WooCommerce > Products > Add Product
  2. Enter a product name in the Name field and click Publish
  3. On the Product Data tab, select Simple product
  4. Enter a price in the Regular Price field and click Publish

Variable Products

Variable products are items that come in different variations, such as size or color. Each variation has its own SKU and price. To add a variable product to your WooCommerce store, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your WordPress site and go to WooCommerce > Products > Add Product
  2. Enter a product name in the Name field and click Publish
  3. Product Data tab, select Variable product
  4. In the Attributes section, click the Add button
  5. In the Name field, enter Size (or any other attribute you want to use). In the Values field, enter Small, Medium, Large (or any other values for this attribute). Click Save attributes.
  6. In the Variations section, click the Add Variation button.
  7. Select Size from the dropdown menu and enter a price for each size variation.
  8. Click Save Changes.
