Understanding Product Variants

Product variants are different versions of a single product that allow customers to choose based on specific attributes. For example, if you sell t-shirts, you might have variants for small, medium, and large sizes and different colors. Setting up these variants properly can enhance the shopping experience and improve sales.

Why Use Product Variants?

1. Improved User Experience: By offering variant options, customers can easily find what they want without leaving the product page.
2. Increased Sales: Products with variant options tend to sell better as customers appreciate the ability to customize their selections.
3. Efficient Inventory Management: Managing variants allows you to keep track of inventory for each option, helping to avoid stockouts and overstock situations.
