How to Sort Products in Your Shopify Store

While some e-commerce stores have a small range of products, many showcase hundreds or thousands of products. If you have an extensive range of products, you need to organize your Shopify products in a way that keeps your finger on the pulse of your business. You also need to make sure your products are sorted logically so that your customers know where to find what they are looking for.

Changing the Order of Your Products in Shopify

Perhaps you've been in business for a while and want to change the order of your products so the more popular collections can slot in at the top of your list. Or, maybe you've loaded your products and subsequently realized that the order needs to change. You can do this without too much difficulty.

If you haven't changed the order of your product collections since you first opened the shop, they will still be in the same initial alphabetical order by default. You can sort your items manually or by:

• Best-selling products
• Price (highest to lowest or lowest to highest)
• Alphabetically (A to Z or Z to A)
• Date added (newest to oldest or oldest to newest)

Steps for Sorting Your Products in Shopify

If you want to sort your Shopify products, here are the steps you'll need to follow:

1. Go to Shopify admin, click Products, then click Collections.



2. Select the collection that you want to change.



3. Under the Products section, click on the drop-down list next to the Sort button.



4. Choose the order you want (if you choose Manually, you'll have to click and drag the products into the order you want).



5. Click Save, and you're done.
