    Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself?
    Anyway keep up the excellent quality writing, it’s rare to see
    a nice blog like this one today.

  9. Is Magento any good? I am a WooCommerce user myself, but they have really irritated me lately. I recently got hit with a HUGE bill for a few plugins I own (without warning). WooCommerce have doubled their prices by 50 on all extension renewals – without telling their customers! Seems pretty odd. But nevertheless, I am currently looking to jump ship and not sure which ecommerce system to use on our site.
