  Hello

  How can I build a website that shows products uploaded by users (you know, when people offer different staff to others ) with worpress. A website like ebay.

  Sounds like a great idea!

  I do not believe that the limitations of a WordPress hosted site will work well for you unless you choose the Business Plan. This will require some plugins and functions not available with the less expensive plans.

  An alternative might be to go with a self-hosted WordPress installation at a different hosting provider. You can compare the two by reading this support document:

  Give it sone thought and if we can help you further with WordPress.Com related questions, please do ask!

  Hello @inkatic,

  There is a powerful WordPress plugin “WooCommerce” that can help you build a multi-merchant marketplace similar to eBay.

  Do search for “Creating a marketplace with WooCommerce”.

  As @Dave answered, you will need a Business plan upgrade or self-hosted solution to be able to use WooCommerce.

  – best luck,
