While running an online store, it is important to display the best products (top rated products, on sale products, etc.) upfront to encourage your visitors to make a purchase. Using widgets you can easily display the products of your choice throughout the store, and let your customers have quick access to them.
Woocommerce comes with several widgets that you can add to the sidebar of your ecommerce website to highlight important products throughout your store using your theme’s widgets.
Showcase top rated products
Display the top rated products of your online store upfront by enabling the “Products by Rating” widget. Choose the number of products to be displayed.
Example
Display categories and tags
Display categories and tags in the sidebar so that your visitors can easily find the products that are relevant to them.
