These tips and techniques help you get the most out of EcomWize Builder. They combine keyboard shortcuts, built-in features, and workflow strategies to help you build high-quality Shopify pages in less time.
Starting from a blank page every time is the slowest way to build. Instead, browse the template gallery and pick a template that is closest to your goal, then customize it.
Browse by category
Filter templates by category - Landing Pages, Product Pages, Listicles, or Advertorials - to narrow down relevant options quickly.
Preview before committing
Click a template card to preview it. Scroll through all sections to see if the layout and structure match your needs.
Generate and customize
Click Generate to create a new page from the template. Then add, remove, reorder, and edit sections to make it your own.
If you need multiple similar sections (testimonials, feature blocks, product highlights), build one section perfectly and then duplicate it.
Select the section and press Ctrl/Cmd + C to copy.
Press Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste a duplicate below.
Click the duplicate and change only the content that differs (text, images, icons).
All styling, layout, colors, and configuration settings carry over from the original. This is significantly faster than configuring each section individually.
When your page has 10 or more sections, scrolling through the canvas becomes tedious. The Layers panel gives you an overview of every section in a compact list.
Click the Layers icon in the sidebar to open the panel.
Click any section name to instantly scroll the canvas to that section and select it.
Drag sections in the Layers panel to reorder them. This is often easier than dragging on the canvas, especially for long pages.
When you have multiple toolbars, panels, and selections open, press Escape repeatedly to progressively clean up your workspace:
First press closes any open toolbar (text, icon, tag, stars).
Second press closes any open modal or dialog.
Third press deselects the current section.
This gives you a clean canvas view for reviewing your page layout.
The AI chatbox provides pre-built quick suggestion buttons optimized for common editing tasks:
Quick Suggestion | What It Does |
Make it shorter | Condenses text while keeping the core message |
More emotional | Adds emotional language and persuasive copy |
Add social proof | Incorporates trust-building language and credibility signals |
More professional | Shifts tone to be more formal and business-like |
More casual | Makes the copy conversational and approachable |
These pre-built prompts are tuned to produce better results than most custom prompts. Try them first before writing your own instructions.
When you add a new section to your page, AI can auto-generate the initial content based on:
Your page's existing sections and overall theme
The linked Shopify product data (if a product is connected)
The section type and its purpose
This gives you a solid first draft to refine rather than staring at placeholder text. Section generation costs 10 AI credits.
Instead of manually configuring 50+ brand style properties (fonts, colors, spacing, sizes, weights), describe your brand in plain text and let AI create a complete style.
Example prompts that work well:
"Clean, modern supplement brand with green accents and sans-serif fonts"
"Bold, energetic fitness brand with dark backgrounds and bright CTAs"
"Minimalist skincare brand inspired by Japanese design"
After generation, fine-tune individual properties in the brand style editor. This approach saves significant time compared to starting from default values.
What looks perfect on desktop may have issues on mobile. Before publishing, switch between both views to verify:
Check | Desktop | Mobile |
Text readability | Font sizes, line lengths | Text not too small, no overflow |
Image quality | High-resolution display | Images load and fit properly |
Button placement | Visible and clickable | Easy to tap, not too close together |
Section spacing | Consistent vertical rhythm | No excessive whitespace or crowding |
Layout | Multi-column layouts render correctly | Columns stack properly on narrow screens |
The builder stores up to 50 undo states, so do not be afraid to experiment:
Try a bold color change on a section. If it does not work, Ctrl/Cmd + Z.
Delete a section to see how the page looks without it. Undo to bring it back.
Reorder sections to test different flows. Undo to revert if the original was better.
Before you make sweeping changes to your page, save a named version as a permanent checkpoint.
Good times to save a version:
Before removing or replacing multiple sections
Before changing the brand style
Before a client review (name it "Client review v1")
Before A/B testing variations
After finishing a major milestone ("Hero + benefits complete")
Versions are saved permanently and can be previewed or restored at any time, unlike undo states which are temporary. Each page supports up to 20 versions.
Always use the preview mode before publishing. The preview renders your page exactly as it will appear on your Shopify store, including:
Full-width rendering without builder UI overlays
Accurate font rendering with loaded Google Fonts and custom fonts
Correct spacing and padding at actual viewport dimensions
Button styles, hover states, and visual effects
If a page is currently live on your Shopify store and you want to remove it, always follow this order:
Unpublish the page
Use the page menu to unpublish. This removes the page from your Shopify store.
Verify removal
Check your Shopify store to confirm the page is no longer accessible.
Delete from EcomWize
Now delete the page from EcomWize. Because you unpublished first, there are no orphaned assets on your Shopify store.
Before publishing, configure these SEO-critical fields in Page Settings:
URL handle - Keep it short, descriptive, and keyword-rich. Use summer-sale instead of our-amazing-summer-sale-2024-limited-time-offer.
Meta description - Write a compelling 120-160 character summary. This appears in Google search results and directly affects click-through rates.
Page title - Make it clear and relevant. The title appears in browser tabs and search results.
Your media library accumulates images and videos over time. Periodically review and delete assets you no longer use:
Remove test images and placeholder content
Delete duplicate uploads
Clean up assets from deleted pages
A lean media library makes it faster to find the right asset when building new pages.
Name your pages clearly so you can identify them at a glance in the dashboard:
Bad Name | Good Name |
Untitled Page | Summer Sale Landing Page |
Page 2 | Vitamin D Product Page - v2 |
Test | Hero A/B Test - Short Headline |
New page | Black Friday 2025 - Countdown |
Descriptive names become essential once you have more than a handful of pages. They also help team members understand what each page is for.
To test different approaches for the same campaign:
Identify the variable
Decide what you want to test: a different headline, hero image, CTA button text, or section order.
Duplicate the page
Use the page menu to duplicate your high-performing page. This creates an exact copy with all sections and settings.
Make one change
In the duplicate, change only the single variable you are testing. Changing multiple things at once makes it impossible to know what caused the difference.
Publish both versions
Publish both pages and drive traffic to each. Compare conversion rates to determine the winner.
Before publishing to your live store, share the page for review:
Enable sharing in the Share dialog to generate a public link.
Send the link to clients, team members, or stakeholders.
They can view the page on desktop and mobile without needing an EcomWize account.
Collect feedback and make revisions before going live.
Text rewrites cost just 1 AI credit each, while generating a new section costs 10 credits. If your section content is close to what you need, use the AI rewrite feature to refine it instead of generating a new section from scratch.
If you know you will need AI help across multiple sections, plan your edits to use credits efficiently. Rewrite all your text blocks in one session rather than making small edits across multiple days. This helps you stay aware of your remaining credit balance.
A single AI-generated brand style can be applied to unlimited pages. Generate one polished brand style and reuse it across all your pages rather than generating new styles for each page.
Check your remaining AI credits in the account area. Credits refresh monthly based on your plan tier: 250 for Free, 1,000 for Starter, and 5,000 for Pro. Plan your usage accordingly, especially toward the end of the billing cycle.
