Conversion Rate Optimization definietly helps a lot. Like free-shipping bar inside of the cart.

Hi @pere01 Generally from my personal experience as well as observations from successful stores, some of the main conversion boosters include- Well made discount packages (in relation to the market), optimized bundle packages, well portrayed subscriptions, and reward programs for loyal or recurrent customers.

@Bundler-Manuel Well said! Those strategies hit the core of sustainable growth. Bundles and loyalty rewards not only lift conversions but also strengthen long-term customer value, that’s where real scaling happens.

Hi there!

Of course, I’m a bit biased (since we operate a product analytics and reporting app), but I’d say that one of the key factors in improving conversion rate is being able to track and understand it on a granular level not just looking at the overall session CR for the whole store.

I’m talking about seeing what works and what doesn’t at the level of variants, products, vendors, or types any of these. This means being able to trace where users go, where views happen, and whether those views lead to add-to-carts, conversions, and transactions.

From there, the next step is to double down/invest (as in ads/budget) in the top-performing products, experiment and grow the middle field, and phase out the laggards. Repeat.

Best,
Peter - Datma

Recently, post-purchase upsells and streamlining checkout have brought the greatest lifts in conversions for my clients. One-page checkout, faster load speeds, clearer trust badges help, too. Additionally, a personalized selection of product recommendations based on browsing history has also seen a positive impact on average order value and customer engagement.

Great points! Post-purchase upsells and a smooth checkout flow really make a big difference. Personalization is the next level it turns casual buyers into repeat customers.
