With this, you can place all those products that have similar features together. Adding a product category in wooCommerce can act as an extra layer of information for your products. This immensely helps you in organizing your store. For online eCommerce stores, it is even more important to properly categorize your products for the ease of shoppers. Categorizing your products can help your shoppers find similar kinds of products at the same place. They do not have to browse through your entire product list to find the desired product. Adding product categories also gives a sorted look to your website.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"302\" height=\"341\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vwthemes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/productcategory.png\" alt=\"product-category-in-woocommerce\" class=\"wp-image-51320\" style=\"width:250px;height:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preview.vwthemesdemo.com\/old_website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/productcategory.png 302w, https:\/\/preview.vwthemesdemo.com\/old_website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/productcategory-64x72.png 64w, https:\/\/preview.vwthemesdemo.com\/old_website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/productcategory-266x300.png 266w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 302px) 100vw, 302px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">If you wish to add a product category in Woocommerce, you just need to follow the simple steps mentioned below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How To Create Product Category In Woocommerce | WordPress Woocommerce Product Category Tutorial\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pRMVtPbO1UU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>First, You Will Need To Install The Woocommerce Plugin<\/strong>.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<span style=\"font-size:14px;color:#6c6c6c;margin-right:5px\">Share: <\/span> \n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https:\/\/www.vwthemes.com\/how-to-create-product-category-in-woocommerce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i class=\"fab fa-twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"background-color: #007bb5;color:#ffffff;padding:9px;border-radius:15px;font-size: 13px\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/www.vwthemes.com\/how-to-create-product-category-in-woocommerce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i class=\"fab fa-facebook-f\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"background-color: #3c5a99;color:#ffffff;padding:9px 11px;border-radius:18px;font-size: 14px\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-steps-for-installing-woocommerce-plugin\"><strong>Steps For Installing Woocommerce Plugin:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to the Dashboard &gt; Plugins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If a notice box displays the status of the Woocommerce plugin as \u2018inactive\u2019.
