Hi everyone, I launched my store Sleekdesigns but haven’t got any sales yet. I will appreciate any feedback to improve my store and get customer to visit my store. I am trying to do fb and instagram post on marketplace as I haven’t got a budget to pay ads.
Thank you.
Hi, @Uthmanmote .
Welcome to the Shopify Community and congratulations on launching your store!

Thank you for the feedback.I will try my best to implement it.
Hello, I have had a look at your store and I have a few suggestions on how you can improve it to finally start getting some sales.
Use a sticky header and add the search button on it. A sticky header would allow the customers to still access the menu bar as they scroll through the store without having to scroll back up. It is also essential to have the search button there so customers can find products easier.
Put your accepted methods of payment at the bottom of the homepage below the social media links. This would enable your customers to be aware of the various ways they can pay for products in your store such as through credit cards, Pay Pal, etc. This would enable them to plan accordingly.
Put an add to cart button on each product page. This would make it easier and faster for customers to add products that they fancy to their cart as the button would appear clearly on the top right of every product. You can install the Add to cart button app here https://apps.shopify.com/add-to-cart
Create a section for customer reviews. This is a sure way to create trust between you and your customers. It is one of the first things most customers look for when they visit a store and having a review section with positive comments about your products is a very good step to take.
Create a section for best sellers and the latest arrivals. These are two categories that capture the attention of customers so it’s best to have sections for them on your homepage.
I hope you find these helpful and I wish you the best of luck!
Hi @Uthmanmote
It’s PageFly - Page Builder App here and I’d like to share some of my initial thoughts when first browsing through your online store. I hope that my recommendations based on 6 years of providing solutions for more than 100.000 merchants can be beneficial to you in improving your store performance.
We did take a deep look into your web design. I see your page is very beautiful and elegant. For the design improvements, I would recommend a few things below:
HOMEPAGE
Sticky headers allow customers to easily access menu navigation regardless if they scroll down or up on your page. Customers can also use the sticky header to quickly reach the product search area.
The first 5-second impression is really important. Having a clear CTA button above the fold can encourage site visitors to take action. An add-to-cart button is especially effective for visually-driven products that require little information to be bought. In these cases, an add-to-cart button allows people to quickly grab and checkout without being directed to many pages. You can read more with our manual here.
Basically, the announcement bar will announce the information about shipping and discount or any promotion campaign of a store. There you have it, but it should show an offer for your customer
Customer reviews are proof of your product quality. This section will help you build customers’ trust. You can show rating stars for each product or you can add customer reviews as text and photos.
What helps you to build your store more easily, especially what helps you to build all the options I comment on above is a page builder.
