Please help me out whats wrong that i have to check and fix.
HI @lamsalg47
Welcome to the community. And do use the search feature here as you will find all the answers why you have no sales. Just search “no sales,” and you will find a lot of good advice that will for sure help you.
Your main issue is high prices. I checked 3-4 and saw yours are almost double that of some other storesoffer. And some are known and trustworthy. And your store is not. I ask, would you give your credit card info to some random guy who just gave you his Gmail email? Now think of the customers of your store. You have no real contact info, no business name, address, or phone number, no about us page.
To be frankm your store is like any other new dropshipping store. People say just open a store, import winning products, and you’re done. Sales will come on their own, and you will get a lot of sales. Well, it does not work like that. As I said, read the experiences of other people, we get 5-6 every week, same as you.
And to mention some general things, you manu needs a lot more links, and you could use good footer links. Your product card is not great, you can not click the image but then when you hower price shows over the title, and you can not see the product name but you have to click it.
And for 8 days you have a domain, do not expect much, but also check your analytics. 1100 sessions, how many are bots ?
And do not trow away money on ads, yet. I really call you to spend some time researching on this forum. Besides no sales, and zero sales. Check also “store feedback” as there are some nice stores out there that do things right.
Be patient also, and hope real sales will come.
You’re using Gmail. You can’t spend 20 bucks on a professional email? I’m just going to guess that you haven’t gotten a business license. You spent money on ads rather than invest in your business. That tells everything. Anything else is supplemental.
It’s wild that you really expected to create a store, run an a couple ads and get people to buy from you? Successful businesses spend hundreds daily on ads, and have the business acumen to back up what they advertise.
You have zero social proof. You created your Facebook page a week ago and have zero Facebook followers. A true sign of a scammer is trying to take people’s money with nothing to offer in return.
You are hiding your address from customers, and it’s only visible if you know where to look. This is a gross intentional deception that I see quite often from scam sites.
Products are random, another sign of scams. Just because you chose products with ai images, doesn’t mean they’re good. Prices are crazy high too.
Overall, I just don’t trust the site. I don’t trust the products are not dropshipped, or even real for that matter. You could have simply downloaded photos and it could all be a scam. I don’t trust that you have done the necessary research and work to provide products to customers. Between your post and the supplied web store link, you have clearly demonstrated a severe lack of understanding of the fundamentals of operating a store.
Good points above, especially the question about bots.
Your funnel is actually interesting, 47 add-to-carts and 27 checkout initiations from 1,100 sessions is a ~2.5% checkout rate. That’s not bad. But zero sales from 27 checkout starts, that something to look at more closely.
Before we diagnose, let me ask: do you know which traffic source those 27 checkouts came from? Paid vs organic vs direct?
$50 in ads on an 8 day old store can attract a lot of low-quality clicks, especially with broad targeting. Some of those visitors might be low-intent and were never likely to buy in the first place.
If you can see a breakdown by source, that’d tell us a lot more than guessing at trust issues or pricing.
Your store is doing well all you need to work on is conversion, customer need more conviction and trust before they can complete a purchase, you need to build a marketing system that get you the audience and also help you engage with the audience to build trust, there are many aspect of marketing that can help you achieve that.
Hey @lamsalg47
Your stats show 1.6k pageviews, 47 add to carts, 27 initiating checkout, but presumably zero or very few actual sales. That funnel shows people are interested enough to add items and start checkout, but then something’s making them bail. Let me tell you what’s broken.
Your homepage is missing the “why” factor. Why should someone buy from you instead of Amazon or anywhere else? What makes your store worth their time and money? That needs to be immediately clear when people land. Right now it’s not answering that question.
You’re only showing a few products on your homepage. If people can’t quickly see what you offer, they’ll leave. Feature more products, show your range, make it easy for visitors to browse without clicking around. Your menu needs clear categories too. Help people navigate to what they want without confusion.
Your cart is redirecting people to a separate page when they add something. That’s breaking the shopping flow and likely causing some of those add to cart dropoffs. Switch to a slider cart that opens on the same page. Keep people engaged instead of disrupting them.
Add a progress bar showing how close they are to free shipping or a discount. With 47 add to carts but only 27 initiating checkout, you’re losing people between cart and checkout. A progress bar gives them a reason to add more or proceed immediately.
Show complementary products in that cart. Help people see what else makes sense with what they just added. This can recover some of those people who add one item but don’t move forward.
Don’t install separate apps for cart features. Something like iCart handles everything in one place, keeps it simple and affordable.
The fact that 27 people initiated checkout but didn’t complete tells me there might be issues at checkout too. Hidden shipping costs, complicated checkout process, lack of payment options, or trust concerns. Make sure your checkout is clean, transparent about all costs upfront, and offers multiple payment methods.
Fix the homepage messaging and navigation first so people understand what you offer and why. Then fix the cart experience. Then audit your checkout process. Those three things will close the gaps in your funnel.
Hi @lamsalg47 the font and design on the homepage are pretty good so big thumbs up on that. The first thing I noticed missing on the homepage is a search button on the homepage for navigation. You should add that on the sticky header as soon as you can
In addition to the premium essentials category, you should add in sections for best sellers and latest arrivals on the homepage as well.
You actually have traffic and strong funnel signals (add-to-cart + checkout), so the issue is not ads, it’s conversion trust and clarity late in the journey.
I’ll give feedback strictly from a customer point of view.
1. Value proposition is unclear in the first 3 seconds
When I land on the site, I don’t immediately understand what you sell or why I should trust it.
“Curated finds” is vague, as a customer, i need something concrete and specific very fast.
Action: rewrite your above-the-fold message so a stranger understands exactly what problem you solve and for whom in one sentence.
2. Visual trust issues (this is big)
Some product photos look inconsistent or low quality (example: Electric Foot Callus Remover).
This creates doubt at the checkout stage, people hesitate right before paying.
Action: standardize your product images (same background, clean lighting, clear angles).
If photos don’t look professional, customers assume the product isn’t either.
3. Design & readability friction
The font choice feels unusual and slightly hard to read.
Spacing is tight and the site doesn’t feel “smooth” or modern.
Action: switch to a classic, proven font (Inter / Poppins), increase spacing, simplify sections.
4. Lack of reassurance elements at checkout
If people reach checkout but don’t convert, it often means missing trust signals.
Action:
Add visible reviews on product pages (Loox, Judge.me, etc.)
Reinforce guarantees, shipping clarity, and returns near checkout
Summary
Your problem is not traffic.
It’s clarity + trust + visual credibility.
Fix those, and your existing funnel data suggests sales should follow.
Hi @lamsalg47
Based on your stats, the main issue isn’t traffic but conversion drop-off. With 1.6k page views and only 47 add-to-carts (~3%) and 27 checkouts, visitors are losing confidence or interest before purchasing. This usually points to product-market fit, trust, or offer clarity. I’d recommend reviewing your product pages closely: make sure the value proposition is clear above the fold, pricing matches perceived value, shipping times are transparent, and trust signals (reviews, policies, contact info) are easy to find. Also check that your ads are targeting buyers, not just clicks, and that your creatives clearly communicate the problem and solution. Improving these areas should help move more users from checkout to purchase.
