Looking for Honest Feedback on My New Online Store

Hi @chrissamL

Thanks for reaching out to the Shopify Community! I’m Donna from MooseDesk , your go-to Live Chat, WhatsApp and FAQ App.

I happened to come across your post and wanted to share some thoughts on your store UX as a UX enthusiast. Hopefully my recommendations can provide some better customer experience advices, please kindly check :heart_eyes:

  1. Revamp Home page

The homepage headline is generic: “Welcome to our store” — it doesn’t communicate what makes the shop special.

Suggestions:

  • Replace with a strong, clear headline like: “Affordable Tech Accessories. Quality You Can Trust.”
  • You can use a high-quality static hero banner with a focused message instead of a distracting image slide.

The menu is basic and hard to notice; product categories are not clearly highlighted.

Suggestions:

  • Make the top menu sticky, high contrast, and clearly labeled.

  • Show product categories above the fold with image-based tiles (e.g., Cables, Power Banks, Headphones).

  • Add a “Shop Now” section with quick links to bestsellers or new arrivals.

2. Add date delivery to check out page

Offering a firm delivery date can set you apart from competitors who only provide estimates, potentially influencing purchasing decisions.

Also, customers can plan around a definite date, which is especially important for time-sensitive purchases like gifts or event-related items. Arrives “April 10th to April 14th” is still better than “3-7 Business Days”

3. Revise FAQ Page

I had a chance to explore your FAQ page, and while it includes helpful information, it currently feels a bit unstructured and could benefit from a clearer layout and better organization.

A search bar will help your customers find relevant information quickly without having to scroll down all the way to the bottom.

I suggest exploring MooseDesk App - a free Live Chat, FAQ & Helpdesk. MooseDesk provides auto-reply features during non-business hours, a proactive help center, and a user-friendly widget layout, offering an effective solution to enhance customer support on your platform.
