By Price<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a very common way; you can sort products from high to low or low to high, making it easier to find the items that fit their budget. This option is especially useful when customers are looking for the best deals or during sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. By Date<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It allows you to sort products from newest to oldest, helping customers to see the latest arrival first or browse older products they prefer first. This is a perfect way to showcase seasonal products, recently added items to keep your store fresh and up-to-date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. By Manually<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Merchants can arrange products in a custom order based on their strategy and priorities. You can show off specific products at the top of the page, push slow-moving items forward, or arrange products to match a specific marketing strategy or visual flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. By Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Products can also be sorted according to different options such as price, size, color, or any other specific attributes. Very important for stores with a large variety of products, as it helps customers find exactly what they\u2019re looking for without scrolling endlessly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. By Best-selling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorting by best-selling highlights popular products first, which encourages new customers and boosts conversion rates by leveraging social proof and showcasing proven customer favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that\u2019s all for how to sort products in Shopify, hope you find it helpful and make the most out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are willing to keep your Shopify store tidy, then product sorting is a good solution.\u00a0 It will help you display featured items, highlight&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[787],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-shopify"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20124"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20124\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20154,"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20124\/revisions\/20154"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/meetanshi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
