Top Tips to Optimise your eCommerce Product Pages


We share our top tips for creating great eCommerce Product Pages that turn browsers into buyers!

JUNE 15 2023

In the competitive world of eCommerce, having a well-designed and optimised product page is crucial for driving traffic and converting browsers into buyers. A strong product page can enhance user experience, build trust, and ultimately increase sales. In this blog, we will explore the key best practices that will help you create compelling product pages that captivate your audience and drive both traffic and conversions.

1. Clear and Compelling Product Descriptions

The product description is one of the most important elements of your product page. It should provide clear and concise information about the product's features, benefits, and specifications. Use persuasive language that highlights unique selling points and addresses customer pain points. Incorporate relevant keywords to improve search engine optimisation (SEO) and ensure your product page ranks well in search results.

Ensure your product meta titles and meta description are optimised too. Tools such as SEO Review Tools will analyse your content and provide SEO optimisations tips. AI tools such as Chat GPT can also assist with content creation.

2. High-Quality Visuals

Images and videos play a vital role in influencing purchase decisions. Include high-resolution product images from multiple angles, allowing customers to zoom in and examine details. Consider adding lifestyle images that showcase the product in use. If feasible, incorporate product videos that demonstrate its functionality and benefits. Investing in professional photography and videography will enhance the overall appeal of your product page and entice visitors to make a purchase.

Saledock Top Tip – Watch out for file sizes as large images will slow down your site loading speed. Saledock generates 5 versions of each image at different sizes plus a WEBP version to ensure your images are optimised for different devices.

3. User-Generated Content

Leveraging user-generated content (UGC) is an effective way to build trust and create social proof. Incorporate customer reviews, ratings, and testimonials on your product page. Positive reviews and ratings act as endorsements, boosting credibility and encouraging potential customers to follow suit. Implement a review system that allows customers to leave feedback and actively respond to their comments, demonstrating your commitment to customer satisfaction.

Saledock Top Tip – Consider integrating product reviews from review platforms such as Reviews.io.

4. Clear Call-to-Action (CTA)

Your product page should have a clear and prominent call-to-action button that guides visitors towards the desired action, such as "Add to Cart" or "Buy Now." Make sure the CTA stands out visually and use persuasive copy that compels users to take action. Experiment with different button colours and placements to optimise conversions. Additionally, consider incorporating elements such as limited-time promotions to create a sense of urgency and drive immediate action.

The User Interface (UI) is key to any successful product page. A simple, clutter free yet powerful design helps increase conversion rates as the user is more focused on the CTA and has less opportunity to get distracted or feel overwhelmed with too much information on one page.

Saledock Top Tip - Make buying easy by giving your customers convenient ways to shop. With Saledock you can manage multiple locations and fulfil orders from any store, giving your customers the freedom to choose their click and collect location.

5. Streamlined Navigation and Product Information

Ensure that your product page layout is clean and organised, with easy navigation that allows visitors to find information quickly. Include a clear product title, price, availability, and shipping information. Use bullet points to highlight key features and benefits, making it easy for users to skim and understand the product's value proposition. Incorporate tabs or accordions to provide additional details, such as specifications, size charts, and customer reviews, without overwhelming the page.

Saledock Top Tip - Saledock’s all-in-one solution ensures that you never oversell a product again with our instant stock level sync, in store and online.

6. Mobile-Friendly Design

With the rise of mobile commerce, optimising your product pages for mobile devices is essential. Ensure that your website and product pages are fully responsive, providing a seamless browsing experience across different screen sizes. Simplify navigation and make sure your CTAs are easily clickable on mobile devices. Conduct regular testing to ensure a smooth mobile user experience. Optimise loading speed, as slow-loading pages can lead to high bounce rates.

Saledock Top Tip - With Saledock, site speed matters! We deliver our powerful eCommerce platform with the speed you need. Saledock’s eCommerce platform creates high quality websites, bespoke to you, built to SEO, accessibility and performance best practices.

7. Cross-Selling and Up-Selling Opportunities

Maximise your revenue potential by strategically incorporating cross-selling and up-selling opportunities on your product page. Recommend related products that complement the item being viewed, encouraging customers to explore additional options. Display customer favourites or bestsellers to inspire confidence and guide users towards popular choices. Upsell lower value items as the user navigates to the checkout, designed to increase each basket value. However, be mindful not to overwhelm the page with excessive suggestions, as it may distract or confuse customers.

8. Social Sharing and Wishlists

Encourage visitors to share your products on social media platforms by including social sharing buttons on your product pages. This can help increase brand exposure and attract new customers. Additionally, consider implementing a wishlist feature, allowing users to save products for future reference. Wishlists not only provide a convenient way for customers to remember and revisit desired items but also create opportunities for retargeting and personalised marketing campaigns.

Conclusion

Optimising your eCommerce product pages is a critical aspect of driving traffic and increasing conversions. By implementing the best practices discussed in this blog, such as crafting compelling product descriptions, using high-quality visuals, incorporating user-generated content, and providing a streamlined user experience, you can effectively engage visitors, build trust, and encourage them to make purchasing decisions. Remember to continuously monitor and analyse the performance of your product pages, making data-driven improvements to enhance customer satisfaction and achieve long-term success in the competitive eCommerce landscape.
