Feedback for your online store from the community
Hi all,
Happy Tuesday
I was hoping to get some feedback on my store if anyone has a moment? I've had my shopify website since 2014 and as persistent as I am, I have never lifted the brand up or made many sales. I get maybe one sale every 3-5 months.
I have recently changed my logo and branding a little. I just wanted to see if anyone can give me an honest opinion on my website and my brand, can you tell what my brand is about from my site?
Thank you! Appreciate your time
Website is - Nostalgic Feather

Hello @SarahNF
Hope you are doing good. Your store looks nice and here are few suggestions.
Add a favicon which helps to find your store when customer had multiple tabs in their browser.
Make header sticky for easy navigation. It helps customer to access menu at any time they want.
Consider testimonials or reviews on the homepage to build trust with the visitors.
Add related products/features collections in the product page to increase cross sales.
Add Contact form in the contact us page.
Make social links open on new tab.
You can promote your products with word of mouth strategy. Boost your sales with the app from the shopify app store which helps to increase your sales.
There is no terms and conditions checkbox at checkout. I suggest you to install an app from shopify app store which provides 'I agree to the Terms and Conditions' before checkout .As it makes easy for the customer to read your terms and policies.
There is no customer review option on the products. Install Product review app from the Shopify app store, so that customer can write a review when they purchase any product from your store.
You can also sell your products on Etsy marketplace as it is very good platform to sell unique, handmade and Vintage goods . If you are already selling on Etsy store consider our Etsy Integration app in the shopify app store. Etsy is a Huge marketplace for selling creative goods such as art & collectibles, crafts & supplies, jewellery &accessories and more, if you have any unique/handmade/vintage goods in your store, you can give further exposure to your products.
Hello @SarahNF ,
I had viewed your website shortly and here are some of my points that I hope useful and you can implement on it easily.
Use All gallery image sizes are in equal.
Rating and Reviews: Customer reviews are fixes the value of of product, And these will decides the your business growth. These will helps to increasing of your customers.
Add Blog: You know creating/adding of blogs gives you a great way to generate fresh content on a website and provide a catalyst for email marketing, social media promotion to drive search traffic to your website.
Trust Badges: Trust badges your visitors know that your page is legitimate and that any data they share will be collected through secure third-party service providers. Your customers feel they can trust your website, And they are more likely to make a purchase.
I hope you will get my points!

Hi @SarahNF

However, I have some feedback and hope this helps:
Add favicon to your store
Having a favicon for your store will make your store unique and help customers easily recognize it. If you are not sure about what is a favicon, it is the icon next to your website's name, take the screenshot below as an example:
You can check this article to know how to add it.
Let dive deep into the page you have:
I. Home page
1.1 Make the menu sticky
A sticky navigation bar will help customers navigate themselves from every part of the homepage to any page of your store more conveniently.
1.2 Add section about your brand story
A brand story helps customers understand more about your business and also helps your store look more professional.
II. Collection page
2.1 Have secondary hover images for the product list
By presenting secondary hover images, customers can easily scan many products to see extra visual information.
2.2 Using the Load more button instead of pagination
By using the Load more button, customers can compare products loading on one page. This helps to create a constant buying experience for customers.
2.3 Add average ratings for each product
You should include both the user rating average and number of ratings on the product list items. This is one of the crucial elements for users’ purchasing decisions. They will rely on both to decide whether they should explore further a product.
III. Product page
3.1 Display a minimum of 6 reviews by default and allow users to submit reviews
Normally, users often rely on reviews to judge a product besides product detail descriptions and other info given by a site since they consider them more legit and authentic. I would recommend you display reviews on your product page (with a minimum of 6 reviews with the ability to “Load more” and allow users to submit their reviews.
Moreover, you can check this guide to pick the best reviews app for your store!
