WooExperts are now Woo Partners

WooCommerce has partnered with Automattic, our parent company, to expand our agency partner program. This company-wide program will help us bring more expertise and provide more resourcing than ever to agencies. As part of this program change, we’re making some changes to how we recommend agencies to businesses looking for ecommerce development support.

Up until now, we’ve used “WooExperts” as the term for our recommended agency partners. Going forward, merchants can identify a direct relationship or recommendation from Woo if an agency carries the “Woo Partner” badge. We’ve also updated our Woo agency directory to connect stores with the best and brightest WooCommerce agencies. 

If your business requires strategic support for a WooCommerce store, whether it’s launching a new one or maintaining and scaling an existing one, our agencies are here to support you every step of the way. Our partners are trusted agencies with a deep track record of building highly customized, scalable online stores. Agency membership is limited to a special few and is the only agency program vetted by WooCommerce.

The WooExperts Marketplace has been replaced with a new Woo agency directory. If you’re in need of development help for your store, this directory will be your go-to resource to find the ideal agency partner. You can conveniently search for agencies based on your requirements, including their location, industry expertise, language capabilities, and budget.

Here are some scenarios where an agency can assist:

• Transitioning your existing store to WooCommerce. 
• Building an entirely new website.
• Adding custom features unique to your business needs.
• Ongoing site upkeep and maintenance.
• Integrating with third-party services and systems.

Our partners are trusted agencies with a proven track record of building highly customized, scalable online stores. Membership is limited, and this is the only agency program vetted by WooCommerce. By working with a Woo agency, you can expect:

• Tailored Solutions for Unique Needs: Our agency partners excel at creating custom solutions that meet your business’s unique functional requirements.
• Time and Resource Efficiency: Rather than navigating the complex process of store building or attempting to do it in-house without the proper skill set, businesses can lean on the expertise of our agencies to deliver high-quality results more efficiently.
• Cut down on costs: Working with an agency can be less expensive than hiring someone full-time. 
• Scalability & Flexibility: As businesses grow, their websites must adapt. Working with our agency partners ensures that this scalability is built into the digital strategy from the start, providing businesses with a flexible platform that can evolve and expand as needed without costly overhauls down the line.
• Ongoing Support: Creating a website is just the beginning. Our agency partners offer ongoing support, marketing, and development services to help you grow and handle any issues that arise post-launch. They also keep the site updated with evolving web standards and incorporate new features to support the continuous growth and success of the business online.

1. Select and contact an expert from our Woo agency directory based on your criteria.
2. They’ll review your request and contact you directly to discuss your project.
3. You’ll work with them directly to define the project’s scope, timeline, and cost.
