Ensuring a good user experience (UX) will <em>increase eCommerce sales<\/em>. For this, you need to understand the challenges that visitors are facing on your site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notifyvisitors.com\/product\/heatmaps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">heatmaps<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notifyvisitors.com\/product\/ab-testing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A\/B testing<\/a>, etc. can help continuously improve your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are certain things you need to consider while working on your site\u2019s UX:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Placement of call to action (CTA) \u2013&nbsp;<\/strong>What\u2019s the use if people do not click through your CTA even if it is highly captivating? Ensure that your visitors notice your CTA and are encouraged to take a favorable decision.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Website navigation<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;Provide your site visitors with simple navigation to the internal pages. This will motivate them to check the info they need and thus increase their chances of buying from you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Headings<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>and subheadings<\/strong>\u2013 Headings and subheadings make it easy for your site visitors to scan through and find content. So, make sure that they are appealing. That is, they should be what customers and prospects are looking for at your site.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"8-feature-user-generated-content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Feature_user-generated_content\"><\/span>8. <strong>Feature user-generated content<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>People tend to trust social proof more than the content posted by the brand itself. One powerful form of social proof is User-Generated Content (UGC). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A study concluded that users who engage with UGC video are <strong>161%<\/strong> more likely to convert! So, encourage your customers to post more UGC.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are the ways to do this:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Send an <strong>email<\/strong> asking your customers to take snaps of them using your products and tag your brand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create a social media #hashtag around your products and motivate customers to use those while discussing them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make provisions for getting their reviews and ratings for each product.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repost favorable comments posted by customers that otherwise may go unnoticed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Organize a competition for UGC under a particular theme.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to featuring UGC, you need to be smart else you might get labeled as being braggy, which would have an adverse effect. One tactic is to do it in such a way that you\u2019re expressing gratitude to customers. <a href=\"https:\/\/appscrip.com\/tiktok-clone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Apps like Tiktok<\/a> work best when brands use them to share customer content in a fun, engaging way that feels more like appreciation than self-praise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"9-make-your-site-mobile-friendly\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Make_your_site_mobile-friendly\"><\/span>9. <strong>Make your site mobile-friendly<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve mentioned this in the SEO tip. However, we feel the need to emphasize more this. Today, an overwhelming number of online shoppers are shopping through their smartphones and tablets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies show that <strong>40%<\/strong> of mobile users have used their devices to make online purchases. And <strong>63%<\/strong> of millennials use their smartphones to shop online.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, make it one of your top-most priorities to optimize your website for mobile devices. An alternative to consider is building a mobile app for your e-store. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Statistics show that people prefer apps more than e-stores. No matter whether yours is an app or an e-store, take into account the following to ensure a great UX:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Speed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Convenience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvecta.com\/blog\/what-is-personalization\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Personalization<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saved settings and preferences<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rewards and benefits<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entertainment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"10-showcase-your-top-selling-items\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Showcase_your_top-selling_items\"><\/span>10. <strong>Showcase your top-selling items<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Customers who shop at your e-store may often be overwhelmed by the wide range of product categories and options. They start looking for directions from you. So, give them those. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a section to display what other people are purchasing the most. Have a \u201cbest seller\u201d category included on the homepage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your eCommerce platform has features to automate displaying your popularly selling products in this section. With this in mind, you can leverage <a href=\"https:\/\/adtribes.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AdTribes<\/a> to easily manage product feeds and ensure your best-selling items are showcased across multiple advertising channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just enable it.
