Hi @Anniemae_123 ,

 

Congrats on the sale you've had so far! I have a couple general resources to help you with generating more traffic, but I want to dig into the specifics of your store as well.

 

Inevitably, paid ads will be mentioned in those resources, but there are plenty of free ways to drive traffic to your store, and those are covered too. On that note, I'd like to chat about what you've been doing already on the online store, Instagram, and Facebook.

 

I found your store link in one of your previous posts, so I've taken a look through the store as well as the Instagram and Facebook pages. There is an opportunity of your own engagement on these social channels. If you're able to interact with the accounts you follow by posting genuine comments, that may help others discover your store too.

 

I noticed that store has one of your artworks instead of a logo, is that correct? I wanted to mention that having a logo is important for establishing your brand identity and making your website easily recognizable. I think adding a logo would enhance the overall look and feel of your website and make it more professional. If you need any help creating a logo, you can use our free logo maker here.

 

Have you considered starting a blog? You can share your creative process, inspiration, and tips for aspiring artists to engage with your audience and build a community around your artwork. A blog will help build search engine optimization over time, and can help people find your website.

 

Email Marketing: Building an email list and sending regular newsletters can help keep customers engaged and informed about new artwork, promotions, and events. You can offer exclusive discounts or early access to new artwork for subscribers to incentivize them to sign up.

 

Let me know what you think about what I've mentioned here so far. Happy to continue the discussion any time!

HI 

Thanks for your advise. When you say a complete  redesign, can you please elaborate. I really appreciate your advise. Im not very savvy at designing the store. 

Do you mean the front home page? 

I will take more pictures of the art and add them to the product page
Thanks for your help I appreciate it

and after designing the first way to increase traffic is search engine optimization and digital marketing because it is very difficult to increase traffic without marketing and SEO.

I have build a blog Laptops Papa where I am providing information about laptops. Is it a good choice to build a Shopify laptops selling store and convert those visitors into buyers? I am also thinking that I should build store on the sub-domain of this blog. What would you recommend?

yes, it's a good idea to make a blog. But the main issue is to rank articles you gain traffic if your articles rank so hard work is needed on the SEO of blog articles. If you succeeded in ranking the articles you will definitely convert your blog visitors into buyers.
Thanks
