All things Shopify and commerce
Hi! I've opened my shop 7 months ago and haven't sold anything on Shopify. I'm not sure what should be done to change this. Thank you!
Hey there, I took a look at your store, and first off—props for sticking with it for 7 months. A lot of people give up way sooner, so you're already ahead by still pushing forward. That said, no sales in that timeframe means something isn’t clicking, so let’s break it down.
- Check analytics – Figure out where the bottleneck is (no traffic vs. no conversions).
- Improve product pages – Detailed descriptions, high-quality images, trust signals.
- SEO optimization – Make sure your store is findable on Google.
- Consider running a small ad campaign – Even $5/day on Facebook or Instagram can give you insights into what’s working.
Since SEO is a key factor in long-term success, a tool like SEOPro (full disclosure, we built this) can help you audit your product pages, find missing keywords, and optimize titles & descriptions in bulk, ultimately increase traffic and sales.
Hope this helps!
If you want, drop more details about your traffic sources, and I can give more specific advice.

Hi, I’m Wayne from Akohub. We have been working with many brands to run online stores. I have viewed your website and hope our expertise can help you.
Overall your site has a clear and elegant design. One effective way to enhance your website's performance is by adding clear CTA buttons on each product image. This small adjustment can significantly improve the shopping experience by guiding visitors on what to do next, such as "Shop Now" or "Learn More." By making it easier for customers to take action, you can boost your conversion rates and encourage more sales.
In addition to optimizing your site, consider investing in Google Ads and Facebook Ads to increase visibility and attract more potential customers. These platforms allow you to target specific audiences based on their interests and behaviors, helping you reach people who are more likely to be interested in your products. Once you've driven traffic to your store, combining these efforts with retargeting campaigns can be particularly effective. Retargeting focuses on users who have previously visited your site but didn't make a purchase, reminding them of their interest in your products. This strategy often leads to higher conversion rates because it targets an audience that is already familiar with your brand. While dynamic ads show various products based on user behavior across multiple platforms, retargeting specifically targets those who have engaged with your site, often resulting in a better return on ad spend (ROAS). This approach leverages the existing interest of potential customers, making them more likely to return and complete their purchase.
Additionally, implementing a loyalty program can foster repeat purchases by offering benefits such as discounts or rewards for returning customers. A well-structured loyalty program not only encourages initial purchases but also builds long-term relationships with customers, enhancing their overall shopping experience and increasing their lifetime value.
To facilitate the process of launching retargeting campaigns and setting up a loyalty program, I recommend using our Ako marketing app. This tool simplifies both tasks, allowing you to focus on creating great products while effectively engaging with your customers. By integrating these strategies into your marketing plan, you'll be better positioned to drive sales and create a thriving online store.
