Hi @Kaifisher 

I've visited your store, it looks quite simple and boring. I think you should redesign your store. 

Also, to get more sales, you should have a return & refund policy page, shipping policy, term & conditions, ... For more, you can read here.

Hope it helps!

Hi @Kaifisher,

first of all, congratulations on launching your store! I've visited your store and have a few points:

  • Design – the design looks too old-fashioned to me. I would definitely give your store a modern design twist. 
  • Collection page – some of the images would also need some changes – they don't look professional. The descriptions of the products are too long and you don't even read them. I would definitely make them shorter and to the point. 
  • Shipping information, return policy, contact page (only a form), about us... – I'm missing all of these pages.
  • Social media – have you already set up accounts? If yes, I would add links to your profiles. 
  • Logo – I can't see your logo. Are you using the picture with the dog as your logo? 

If you need more details about the points mentioned above, let me know. I'll be happy to discuss them with you.

Send me a link to your store to niki@ecommercepot.com and I'll help you out.
For more info what I do, visit my agency website ecommercepot.com or my personal website nikikozak.me.

Hi, @Kaifisher 

As others have said, congrats on launching your store! I am happy to give some feedback here. 

Let's start with your logo. It is very long. It looks quite out of place, I would advise resizing it to fit the dimensions of your theme, we do actually have a fantastic free logo designer here on our site you can use. 

One of the first things I noticed is that you have a pop-up on your site soliciting an email address, but no way to dismiss it. I would highly advise against running such a tactic as it will discourage many potential customers from signing up. 

Reading through your text in your headers and descriptions I see that there are plenty of ways you can improve the grammar of the text which may make it more appealing to read. I would make sure to capitalize the first letter of each sentence as well as your brand name if that is in line with your brand. 

While there are plenty more suggestions I can give, others have touched on them, I would like to highlight the importance of getting a custom domain also. Instead of having the .myshopify.com at the end of your domain you can purchase one and have a .com domain on your site. You can read about acquiring one here.
