18 Must-Use Free Tools for Global Selling Beginners, No Plugin Installation Needed, Web-based! (Part 1)

Today I want to recommend some useful free global selling tools for beginners—web-based or browser extensions, no need to install Shopify plugins. Covering multiple aspects!

Of course, everyone has different habits with tools. As long as it helps you, it's a good tool—no need to follow the crowd.

Let's go!

1. Copywriting Best Companion: GetEmoji

Whether for social media or website copy, you can add some emojis. Open the website, find the emoji you want, copy and paste!

Of course, pros will generate copy + emoji directly in ChatGPT.

2. Product Details Essential: Unitconverters

Since many friends do international multi-country markets, the primary task of localization is to optimize all product specifications to display in local measurement habits.

For example, length in inches, weight in pounds, etc. To be safe, I usually put both values.

3. AI Copy Check: ZeroGPT

ChatGPT has become an essential content production tool for all independent site players, but many worry whether AI content will be penalized by Google? Will it have no SEO effect?

In February 2023, Google's official blog specifically discussed AI content. Everyone should read it. The conclusion is simple: follow Google's EEAT principles, regardless of what tools you use.

Still, many people feel uneasy: "I just don't want my documents to look like AI content." You can use this tool for AI content checking as a "self-comfort" measure.

(Whether it actually works is not evaluated—please judge for yourself.)

4. Site Speed Optimization Essential: Tinypng Image Compression

Essential for site speed optimization. Images of several hundred KB will slow down your page loading speed. That's why many site speed optimization tutorials tell you to compress images first.

Generally, under 100KB is sufficient. Format-wise, Google officially recommends WebP; but in terms of applicability, JPEG and PNG are both fine.

PNG is suitable for small-size images like logos that need to clearly display text information. JPEG is suitable for most product images.

There are many tools and methods for image compression—choose what suits you.

5. Translation Assistant: Salad Dict

A small browser extension that can quickly translate words and sentences on web pages.

6. Browser Location Switching Tool: Location Guard

Sometimes for certain scenarios, you want to hide or spoof your Chrome browser's location information. You can use this small extension.

For example, when you want to research market conditions on Google Shopping in other countries, you can't just adjust search results in Google settings. At this time, you can use this plugin.

That's all for this episode. Welcome friends to recommend tools you use frequently. The second part will recommend more tools. Thanks everyone!
