How to Add Products to Shopify from AliExpress

Hey, what's up guys? It's Brennan here, and today I'm going to be showing you how to add products to Shopify from AliExpress. In this tutorial, I will guide you step by step on what apps and Chrome extensions you need, as well as the entire process of importing products into your Shopify store from AliExpress. This tutorial is especially useful if you want to sell AliExpress products through Shopify dropshipping.

Before we begin, make sure you have already signed up for a Shopify store. If you don't have one yet, you can easily get started by clicking the first link in the description box below. Now, let's dive into the tutorial!

Step 1: Sign up for Shopify

To add products to your Shopify store, you need to have a Shopify account. If you haven't already signed up, follow the link in the description box to create a Shopify store and start your free trial. Once you have a Shopify store, proceed to the next step.

Step 2: Install the de-essers app

The app we will be using in this tutorial is called "de-essers". It is a great AliExpress dropshipping tool that integrates seamlessly with Shopify. To install this app, go to your Shopify dashboard and click on "Apps". In the search bar, type "de-essers" and press enter. Click on "de-essers AliExpress Drop Shipping" and then click "Add app" to install it to your Shopify store.

Step 3: Create an account with de-essers and AliExpress

Once the app is installed, you will need to create an account with de-essers as well as with AliExpress. Click on "Register for yourself" and provide your email address. You can use your Shopify account email or create a new one. After creating your de-essers account, you will be prompted to select a plan. Choose the free plan, as it is completely free to use and has no time limit. Next, you need to log in to your AliExpress account. Click on "Register to create a new AliExpress account" and follow the registration process. After verifying your email, you will be granted authorization to link your AliExpress account to the de-essers app.

Step 4: Link AliExpress to de-essers

To link AliExpress to de-essers, click on "Authorize" after signing in to your AliExpress account. This will allow de-essers access to your AliExpress account for order placement and management. Once the accounts are linked, you can start importing AliExpress products to your Shopify store.

Step 5: Importing products using the Chrome extension

The easiest way to import products from AliExpress to your import list is by using the de-essers Chrome extension. If you are using Google Chrome, install the extension from the Chrome web store. After installation, log in to de-essers and AliExpress, then head over to AliExpress to find the products you want to import. On the product page, click on the "Add to de-essers" button that appears. The product will be automatically added to your import list.

Step 6: Editing product details in de-essers

Before pushing the imported products to your Shopify store, it is recommended to edit the product details in de-essers. This includes modifying the pricing, variants, descriptions, and images of the products. In de-essers, you can easily make these edits before pushing them to your Shopify store. It is important to ensure that your product details are well-optimized and appealing to your customers.

Step 7: Pushing products to Shopify

After editing the product details, you can now push the products to your Shopify store. In de-essers, select the product you want to push and click on "Push to Shopify". Choose your Shopify store if you have multiple, and select whether you want to publish the product to your online store. Review the shipping options and details, and make sure they are appropriate for your store. Once everything is set, click on "Push to Shopify" to import the product.

Step 8: Alternative method - Importing products by URL

If you can't use the Chrome extension, there is an alternative method to import products by URL. In de-essers, go to your import list and click on "Import". Paste the AliExpress product URL into the provided field and click "Search". The product will be added to your import list. You can then proceed to edit the details and push the product to your Shopify store.

Conclusion

Adding products from AliExpress to your Shopify store is made easy with the de-essers app and Chrome extension. By following the steps outlined in this tutorial, you can import, edit, and push products to your Shopify store in a seamless process. Remember to optimize your product details and make necessary modifications before pushing them to your store. With these tools and methods, you can effectively build your Shopify dropshipping business with AliExpress products.
