§ Choose the Settings section in the sidebar.
§ After entering the Settings section, find the Social Media option. Once you click on it, you will see the social media platforms that can be linked to your website.
The social media platforms
1. Facebook
It is one of the largest social media platforms in the world and provides an excellent opportunity to engage with a wide audience of potential customers. You can add a link to your Facebook page so customers can follow your store’s updates, interact with your posts, and inquire about products directly through Messenger.
2. Instagram
It is a highly visual platform, making it ideal for showcasing your products through attractive and professional imagery. Connecting your Instagram account to your store helps build a strong visual identity and allows customers to see your products in real-life contexts through posts and stories.
3. Twitter (X)
It is perfect for quick updates and instant announcements about special offers and new products. It also serves as an effective customer service channel where you can respond quickly to inquiries, enhancing customer trust in your store.

4. WhatsApp
It has become an essential tool for direct communication with customers. By adding your store’s WhatsApp number, customers can contact you easily to inquire about products, place orders, or receive technical support in a fast and convenient way.
5. Skype
Although Skype is less commonly used today, it remains a good option for professional communication especially for stores that deal with corporate clients (B2B) or provide consulting services that require video meetings.
6. YouTube
If your store produces video content such as product reviews, tutorials, or marketing advertisements, linking your YouTube channel adds extra value to your brand and strengthens your credibility. Video content helps customers better understand your products and make more informed purchasing decisions.
7. Snapchat
It is popular among younger audiences and offers a creative way to market your products through temporary stories and interactive filters. If your target audience includes young customers, maintaining a presence on Snapchat is essential for building strong engagement with them.

8. TikTok
It has rapidly become one of the fastest-growing social platforms, offering a golden opportunity to reach millions of users through short, creative videos. Stores that invest in TikTok can leverage trends and viral content to achieve wide visibility.
9. Apple App Store
If your store has an iOS app, you can add its App Store link, making it easier for Apple device users to download your app and enjoy an optimized shopping experience on their smartphones or tablets.
10.Google Play Store
Similarly, if you have an Android app, you can link it through Google Play. Since Android powers the majority of smartphones globally, offering an Android app can significantly expand your customer base.
