WooCommerce is an open source e-commerce plugin designed for small to large-sized online merchants using WordPress. Since it's launch in 2011, WooCommerce has become the most popular eCommerce platform on the web.

Giving us a tour of WooCommerce functionality is Curtis McHale (https://curtismchale.ca/), a freelance WordPress developer who has worked and spoken extensively about the plugin.

Among the things he'll cover include:

1. Basic eCommerce security (SSL, PCI)

2. A word on taxes

3. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy requirements

4. Basic WooCommerce setup with recommended plugins
