The online shopping world is growing faster than ever. This massive growth shows how people are now more comfortable buying things online rather than going to physical stores. So, for any online business owner, creating an attractive and easy-to-use online store layout has become paramount.
Accoding to Statista, in 2024, eCommerce business was in charge of around $6.09 trillion in deals and is relied upon to hit $8.09 trillion by 2028!
Today’s customers expect more than just good products. They also want a smooth, visually pleasing, and enjoyable shopping experience. And these are impossible without a well-designed store layout. Even a few years ago, people had to hire professional designers to do all these tasks.
But today, you can create amazing layouts for your online store on WordPress using Elementor and HappyAddons plugins, no matter if you are a no-code designer. In this post, we’ll explain a step-by-step guide on how to create product layout design with Elementor. Get started!
What Is Product Layout Design?
Product layout design means arranging your products on a web page in a clear and organized way so visitors can easily find what they’re looking for. A good layout guides users smoothly from one category to another so they can explore all products in the store without any confusion.
For example, if you want to get any kitchen fitting item, then the product layout will easily tell you where to click.

After choosing the kitchen fitting category, you will see numerous kitchen fitting items on the new page. If you want to switch to other items, you’ll find other categories as well on the same page.

Note: While designing product layouts, you can also create sub-categories inside categories if desired.
Remember that a well-planned product layout not only improves user experience but also increases sales and customer satisfaction. When products are clearly presented, visitors spend more time exploring your site and are more likely to complete a purchase.
Types of Product Layout Design
There are several types of product layout designs, and each one serves a different purpose depending on the type of website and products you sell. Before you start designing, it’s important to understand these layout types so you can choose the one that best fits your online store’s structure and goals.
The right layout will help you organize your products clearly and guide customers through a smooth shopping experience.

Let’s know the types of product design layouts:
- Product Layout
- Process Layout
- Cellular Layout
- Combination/Hybrid Layout
- Fixed-position Layout
- And Other Layout
The Difference between Product Layout and Process Layout
There are different strategies for grouping, which are normally called layout. They are product layout, process layout, fixed position layout, cellular layout, and hybrid layout. Among them, Product and Process layouts are the most important.

Let’s now take a look at the differences between product layout and process layout in the table below.
| Factor | Product Layout | Process Layout |
| Definition | Products are displayed in a sequence based on categories, collections, or types (e.g., Men’s Fashion → Shirts → T-Shirts) | Products are arranged based on their purpose or function, like New Arrivals, On Sale, or Top Rated |
| Flow of Work | Customers move smoothly through well-structured product categories and subcategories | Customers browse products through filters, tags, or functions rather than fixed categories |
| User Experience | Easier for users to find products by type or category; creates a clear shopping journey | Offers flexibility for users to discover items based on interests or shopping goals |
| Best Use Case | Perfect for stores with a large number of similar or related products (like electronics, clothing, or cosmetics) | Better for stores offering mixed or varied products (like marketplaces or multi-brand stores) |
| Flexibility | Less flexible — the structure stays the same unless product categories change | More flexible — you can rearrange items easily based on campaigns or promotions |
| Design Focus | Focuses on building strong category-based sections and product grids | Focuses on dynamic sorting, filtering, and smart product recommendations |
| Maintenance | Once the layout is set, it needs minimal changes | Needs regular updates to match trends, deals, or user preferences |
| Example | An online fashion store with sections like Men, Women, and Kids → Clothing → Accessories | A general eCommerce site showing tabs like Most Popular, Discount Offers, and Recently Viewed |

Before getting started with the process, there are several prerequisites you must meet. You need to ensure the following plugins are installed and activated on your website. We have attached their links as well to the names so you can easily find their respective pages.
