If you’re using Hostinger’s Website Builder to create an online store, understanding how to properly add both physical and digital products is essential. In this guide, I’ll walk you through the full process, so you can confidently set up your store to sell anything from handcrafted items to downloadable planners.
Adding Physical Products
To begin, navigate to your website’s product section by clicking on the website list and selecting “Products.” From there:
- Click “Add Products”
This allows you to input product details such as title, subtitle, photos, and pricing. - Upload Product Photos
Choose high-quality images that showcase your product. For example, if you’re selling a handmade ceramic cup set, make sure to highlight its design and features. - Use AI to Assist
You can allow the AI to generate titles and descriptions to speed up your workflow. - Set Pricing and Variants
Add original and discounted prices, weight, and different variants such as size or color. - Enable Inventory Tracking
Track the quantity for each variant to keep stock levels accurate. - Add Custom Fields
Allow personalization by including optional custom fields like “engraving text.” - Set Categories and Related Products
Organize your items using categories, and enable related product recommendations for upselling. - Add Additional Info
Use this section for care instructions, return policies, or shipping details.
Once complete, don’t forget to publish or update your website to make the product live.
Adding Digital Products
Adding digital products like planners or eBooks follows a similar path:
- Create a New Product
Input a title, subtitle, description, and ribbon label (e.g., “Best Seller”). - Upload the Digital File
You can host the file directly on Hostinger or link from platforms like Google Drive. - Set File Availability
Configure the link expiration—e.g., 48 hours—to control download access. - Limit Quantity (Optional)
If you’re offering a limited-time product or early-bird access, adjust the available stock. - Assign to Categories
Use relevant categories like “Planners & Organizers” for easy navigation. - Customize Additional Info
Include PDF viewing recommendations or refund terms for digital purchases.
Preview and Publish
Once both your physical and digital products are configured, preview them on both mobile and desktop versions to ensure everything appears as intended. Confirm the product page layout—photos, titles, add-to-cart buttons, info sections, and related products.
Finally, make sure to publish or update your website to push the changes live.
