Begining my AliExpress Dropshipping Business

Hello World !

First, as a newby on this forum I will introduce my self.
I started learning webmarketing at school in France and I'm kind of a junior in ecommerce with less than 4years of job experiences.

I've created several wordpress websites destinated to blogging where I used to tell stories about sport news ...
Today i'm looking for selling products in a niche market using DROPSHIPPING

I can probably say that I'm a SEO expert and Social Media strategist. So the trafic acquisition part will not be a problem in my future business.
Find niche products is not a problem too because I already get them and I'm engaged in this market in real life.

All my questions will be about building the website. I don't want a premade shopify or custom website made by X or Y. As I want a maximum of personalization I would like to create my own with wordpress.

I read a lot about Yaros journey on its AliExpress Dropshipping Business. I help me answer a lot of question I had. But I still have some !

So let us begin ! Hope this topic will help newbies like me. I'll post about my own journey into dropshipping with aliexpress and try to show you the best results in few months.

---------------------------

First of all !
I plan to install the last wordpress update on my own server. I will choose a ecommerce theme that suits me and will began to defined menu and all its parameters.

Is the alidropship plugin works well with all kind of wordpress version and theme ?
Is WooCommerce necessary ? Someone to share about that ?

Thanks a lot everybody, I'll be pleased to go further with you
