Write You - Online Shopping Site: Is Your Website Ready For Shoppers?
There are three basic video file types on the internet. Mpeg, AVI and Quicktime. I believe the Quicktime file type is the most popular since a lot of huge entertainment and news sites use it exclusively on their web pages.AVI is the oldest of the three main file types. It is a windows oriented video format but it's not the most popular because of the sound and video compatibility and synchronizing problems. Because the Quicktime format ca
I'm sure your site has delivery details and costs, but... is it easy to find them?
Don't force a customer to buy an item, before they can find this information!
Make your delivery details and costs as easy to find as possible - especially if you offer free delivery. Don't give a potential customer a reason to go somewhere else.
5. Does Your Site Display Contact Details?

Newcomers to internet marketing don't have to stick around very long before running into the concept of search engine optimization (SEO). While there are many approaches one can take to internet marketing, most of them involve attracting visitors to one or more Web sites. The purpose of search engine optimization is to draw as much of that traffic as possible.SEO is a complex and often very technical issue. Search engines such as Google a
And what I look for, in that crucial first minute, is what your potential site-visitors look for too. Indeed, when they visit your site they're most likely asking themselves:
- Can I trust you?
- Do you sell what I'm looking for?
- Do I want to buy it from here? Or
- Do I just want to click somewhere else?
The bad news? I am more patient than your site-visitors!
The good news? You just need to make a few common sense changes to your website, for it to convert potential visitors into willing shoppers.
So what do I look for?
1. Is Your Site Safe AND Secure?
'Of course our site is safe AND secure!' you say. 'We're a member of a safe-shopping scheme, and we pay lots of extra money for secure servers!'
Great. So you know that your site is safe and secure, but do your site visitors? Does your site display the safe-shopping logo proudly on the home page, where it's easy to find and easy to reassure?
Do put any safe-shopping logos high up on your home-page, or even the logo of your secure server provider like Worldpay or Verisign! (The same goes for glowing customer testimonials! Anything that will help persuade visitors that you are trustworthy.)
2. Does Your Site Look Professional?
How do I decide whether a site is well-designed and professional?
Maybe I look for a great colour scheme, or site layout. Maybe I look for clear product images, or good use of fonts, or an impressive Flash movie. Maybe I look for all of these things.
A professionally designed website leaves clues. For me, those clues are that the site:
* is easy to navigate (so you never get 'lost')
* is quick to load (no unnecessary 'splash' screens)
* contains clear and immediate benefits for your customer
* does not rely on obscure browser technology
Yes you can break these rules just as long as you make sure that your site is customer friendly.
(At the very least do a site-usability study. You'll be amazed at what you learn!)
3. Does Your Site Contain Great Content and Offers?
Is it really worth shopping at your site?
Do you offer a great choice of goods at low prices? Can visitors read reviews of the products you sell? And can they create a gift wish list for their friends or family? Etc.
What's compelling about shopping online at your store? (For ideas about compelling shopping, just visit Amazon!)

Writing Effective CopyNever try to sell anything costing more than $5 in a small display ad or a classified ad. First of all, you don't have enough room to tell people everything they need to know to entice them to order.Instead, you need to employ the "Two-Step" method of advertising. Request the reader to send you $1 or 4 first-class postage stamps for more information. When they respond, you will send them a brochure, fl
