Hello, Welcome to the Shopify community.
Apps can have a significant performance impact on the stores they are installed on. First of all, I am not trying to say that you shouldn’t install apps on your store. use less applications on your Shopify store. Use such APIs for the Apps.
We are here to help you.
Focus on the following points
-
Use dynamic content.
-
Choose relevant keywords
-
Use design to improve user experience.
-
Improve page loading time.

Add testimonials, reviews, and logos
-
Mobile friendliness
-
Quality Content
You need to work on your website performance’s speed. Low mobile page speed may kill your traffic and affect your conversion. A great tool to use here is Google’s PageSpeed Insights.

Hi @alex_141 ,
The fact that you got 5 orders on a two-month store means that you are on the right track.
For a new store, your initial goal is to be able to hit the following milestone:
- Have monthly traffic of at least 2000 visitors.
- Have a conversion rate of at least 2%.
If you are getting less than 2000 visitors in a month, you will need to be more aggressive with marketing. You can utilize platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Youtube etc, to launch ads.
If you are reaching 2000 visitors in a month but have less than 2 percent conversion rate, you will need to work on your conversion rate (convincing the traffic to buy your product). One of the few things that you should do is to check your abandoned cart check out and see if there are any issues (errors) if a customer attempts to make a payment. If there is, then it will be shown in the abandoned cart section. You can use Shopify’s built-in abandoned cart emails and send them discounts as an attempt to recover them and convince them to go back to your store.
Are you utilizing Facebook ads for marketing? If yes and you are not getting any sale, consider doing AD retargeting. AD retargeting involves using the data from your previous ad campaign to tweak (retarget) your next ads. This one can take some time to master and involves a little bit of trial and error but it definitely gives great results if done correctly. You can check this article from Shopify - Facebook Retargeting: How to Win Back Your Almost-Customers.
