This is typically a click on a button to making purchases and become paying customers. Websites and apps often have multiple conversion goals as users travel through an eCommerce store, and each will have its own conversion rate.<\/p>\n<p>The conversion rate is the number of conversions divided by the total number of visitors. For example, if an eCommerce website receives 500 visitors in a month and has 100 sales, the conversion rate would be 100 divided by 500, or 20%.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_tracking_a_conversion_rate_is_important\"><\/span>Why tracking a conversion rate is important<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Tracking conversion rates allows you to measure the performance of the web pages and apps of your eCommerce business. Understanding what percentage of your users are completing the agreed goals that drive your business to be successful allows you to identify areas for improvement on your store.<\/p>\n<p>A higher conversion rate leads to more sales with the same amount of traffic which ultimately means your marketing spend becomes more efficient.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_calculate_your_eCommerce_conversion_rate\"><\/span>How to calculate your eCommerce conversion rate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"495\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2582\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/calculate-your-eCommerce-conversion-rate-1.jpg\" alt=\"calculate your eCommerce conversion rate\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/calculate-your-eCommerce-conversion-rate-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/calculate-your-eCommerce-conversion-rate-1-500x309.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/calculate-your-eCommerce-conversion-rate-1-291x180.jpg 291w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Google Analytics is a must<\/h3>\n<p>Setting up <a href=\"https:\/\/analytics.google.com\/analytics\/web\/provision\/#\/provision\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google Analytics<\/a> is the first port of call when it comes to measuring your conversion rates. But a word of warning. It isn\u2019t as easy as Google would have you believe. The conversion rate in Google Analytics is, at the highest level, simply the number of goals completed divided by the number of sessions.<\/p>\n<h3>Understand what you are measuring<\/h3>\n<p>What is important for you to do, in order to calculate the most accurate and meaningful eCommerce conversion rate, is to ensure you focus your measurement on your target audience, audience interest and device type, for starters. You should ensure your calculation doesn\u2019t include visitors who you cannot sell to (perhaps in certain territories) or who bounce off the landing page without getting to your product pages. And you should make sure you can track conversion rates for desktop versus mobile so you can understand any improvements needed by device type.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_good_average_conversion_rate\"><\/span>What is a good average conversion rate?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Average UK conversion rate<\/h3>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.irpcommerce.com\/en\/gb\/ecommercemarketdata.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IRP<\/a> Commerce, the average UK conversion rate in January 2022 was 1.69%. Sounds incredibly low, doesn\u2019t it? Bear in mind that this figure is across all industries, device types and traffic sources and is a huge amalgamation of different goals and online shopping competencies. It is also evident that many eCommerce businesses need to improve their user experience and overall digital strategies. The COVID-19 pandemic has also seen dramatic shifts in consumer behaviour and online purchasing expectations.<\/p>\n<p>However, if only there was one version of the truth. Depending on how the conversion rate is measured, the average UK rate can be wildly different. <a href=\"https:\/\/kibocommerce.com\/resource-center\/q3-2021-ecommerce-quarterly-benchmarks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kibo<\/a>\u2018s latest Ecommerce Quarterly Benchmarks Report states that the UK conversion rate in Q3 2021 was 4.1% across all devices and 6.4% on desktop. So take country-wide average conversion rates with a pinch of salt!<\/p>\n<h3>The importance of mobile<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salecycle.com\/blog\/featured\/ecommerce-conversion-rate-stats-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SaleCycle<\/a>\u2018s tracking shows that in 2019 51.39% of fashion purchases were carried out on mobile devices with this figure likely to be much higher since the global pandemic. It is clear that mobile must be part of every eCommerce business\u2019 online strategy whether B2C or B2B to achieve a good conversion rate.<\/p>\n<h3>Conversion rate by industry<\/h3>\n<p>There are many benchmarks comparing conversion rate by industry but essentially we would argue that they are meaningless. What\u2019s more important is to understand the set of conversion rates that make more money for your specific business rather than assuming that your industry\u2019s average conversion rates are your targets.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_shoppers_on_eCommerce_stores_dont_convert\"><\/span>Why shoppers on eCommerce stores don\u2019t convert<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before we show you ways to improve your conversion rate, let\u2019s look at why shoppers on eCommerce stores don\u2019t convert. Those reasons are no different to bricks and mortar retail outlets but some brands forget the basic principles when they build an online store.<\/p>\n<h3>Your shop window and layout<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Your site leaves a poor first impression<\/strong>. Remember how important the shop window is before you enter a store. The same applies to an eCommerce business.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You don\u2019t know your target audience.<\/strong> Your language, pictures, products and pricing are all influenced by your customers\u2019 needs and behaviours.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your site isn\u2019t optimised <\/strong>for your users to navigate through your online shop easily and logically. They don\u2019t want to waste time and they will ultimately not trust your brand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Your shop\u2019s look and feel<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>You\u2019re ignoring mobile users <\/strong>who expect a mobile-enabled experience where shopping can be carried out on a small screen on the go.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your product images are poor<\/strong> and one-dimensional. Again, imagine how customers like to touch and experience products in physical stores and how you need to satisfy that behaviour online.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your copy isn\u2019t persuasive <\/strong>and reassuring. The old days of a personalised service when you walk into a store have disappeared (apart from in boutique or luxury retailer outlets) and so your words play a major part in convincing shoppers to buy from you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The web pages are distracting<\/strong> or overwhelming. Visual presentation is key to keeping users in the buying journey. We read online pages differently to pages in books and magazines and the layout needs to recognise this. And consumers pick and choose what they read so content should be presented in a hierarchy of priority.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Your sale\u2019s technique<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The call to action is unclear<\/strong> or not persuasive. For a good conversion rate, your CTA button needs to fight for attention and encourage potential buyers to move to the next steps. That might be achieved by offering a time-sensitive deal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Your brand trust<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Shoppers don\u2019t trust your brand<\/strong>. Online shoppers are generally savvy and disloyal but if they trust your brand, they are more likely to buy from you than your competitors\u2019 eCommerce stores. Make sure all your website pages and advertising are consistent, clear and easy to understand. Don\u2019t have any hidden costs. Be completely transparent and they will buy again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Your shop\u2019s checkout<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Buyers have to pay for shipping<\/strong>. Amazon Prime is successful because shoppers believe they are getting a better deal by saving on delivery. Make sure your competitors are not offering free shipping by front-loading the product\u2019s price. The average order value is likely to increase if you offer deals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check out is difficult<\/strong>. Just like having to queue for ages in a shop and then experiencing a slow transaction at the till, online shoppers want to buy quickly and easily once the decision is made. So make sure you have the option to checkout as a guest and a choice of payment options as well as a familiar payment gateway solution.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You\u2019re not using exit-intent<\/strong> to detect when a visitor moves their cursor above the browser window. A popup at the exact moment a visitor is about to leave your site can persuade them to stay and buy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Your re-marketing<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>There\u2019s no re-marketing <\/strong>or retargeting strategy in place. By understanding your traffic source, you can nudge prospects to return to your site to complete their purchase.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_increase_your_eCommerce_conversion_rates\"><\/span>How to increase your eCommerce conversion rates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"495\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/increase-your-eCommerce-01.jpg\" alt=\"increase-your-eCommerce-01\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/increase-your-eCommerce-01.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/increase-your-eCommerce-01-500x309.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.chilliapple.co.uk\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/increase-your-eCommerce-01-291x180.jpg 291w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So now let\u2019s look at how to improve your conversions, without necessarily increasing your unique visitors, for both desktop and mobile devices. These tips are relevant to different industries and whether your focus is B2C or B2B. Most businesses that are selling online will need to ensure they address these issues to benefit from a good conversion rate and a lower cost per acquisition.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Focus on mobile usability<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Ensure your e Commerce platform is mobile responsive as most consumers, whatever the product or service, are researching, if not buying, on a mobile device. Your competitors will win over your customers if your eCommerce solution does not recognise the importance of mobile users.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Create interactive product pages<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Engaging in a product online can make the difference between a sale or an abandoned cart. Despite not being able to physically touch products, your users will want to see a 360\u02da view, watch a video, see how the product looks on another person (if clothing) or even virtually try it on or experience it.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Design simple navigation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Your conversion rate will dramatically increase if your eCommerce site has an easy, even pleasurable, user experience. If there are any sticking points along the way, your users are likely to abandon the page and go elsewhere.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Use social proof to increase conversion rate<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There are tried and tested eCommerce designs that consumers like and are familiar with. Stick to those designs rather than recreating the wheel. And add testimonials and reviews from like-minded people to validate your brand and products.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Personalisation is key<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Your unique visitors are just that. Unique. And there is a growing expectation amongst internet users that their online experience should be personalised. The Amazon technique of \u2018People who buy this product also bought these\u2019 is a good starting point to raise the conversion rate.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Provide free shipping<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Conversions in online baskets will rise if you offer free delivery for a higher spend. Consumers love a good deal and you will see the conversion rate soar if they can save on shipping costs.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Add a clear return policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Online shoppers, irrespective of the traffic source, will be more likely to buy if they can trust you to offer a simple return policy within a certain time period if they change their mind. It demonstrates that you strive for 100% customer satisfaction and aren\u2019t a rogue trader.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Have a re-marketing strategy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes your potential customers need a bit of a nudge to make the decision to buy from you. Many will visit your site, and a few might even have a full basket, but will do more research elsewhere to compare prices, products and brands. Make sure your eCommerce platform is built to capture who they are so you can remind them of the benefits of buying from you. Also, ensure you have an organic presence to remind them of your brand whilst they are researching.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reduce cart abandonment<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Consider all the reasons why a user has gone through your online journey, spent time selecting products, put them in their cart and then left your shop. Are your choice of payment methods sufficient? Are you imposing a registration process before purchase that is putting people off buying? A guest checkout option really helps to increase purchases. They are very warm leads so focus on improving your conversion rate at this point in the journey first.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Test and test again<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Even the smallest change, such as a button colour or size, can make a difference to your conversion rate. Having the facility to carry out A\/B testing is the perfect way to ensure robust testing with results you can trust. Try different messages, colours, offers, content, online advice etc and your average rate will eventually increase.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_takeaways\"><\/span>Key takeaways<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Knowing how to accurately measure your conversion rate at each step of your purchasing journey is the first essential strategy to put in place. Google Analytics, a free tool to help you achieve this, should be embedded into your eCommerce store.<\/p>\n<p>Accepting the fact that most website visitors will not buy straight way if at all, will ensure you focus on the parts of your eCommerce store where you can make a positive impact on conversion rates. Also, being mindful of the average rate of conversion for your industry is interesting but not necessarily useful. Focus on the conversion rate that works for your business and ensures your marketing spend efficiency is maximised.<\/p>\n<p>On the face of it, improving the conversion rate seems a difficult, never-ending task. Every industry is different. Unique visitors expect to be treated as individuals. There are multiple reasons, big and small, why your conversion rate might be poor. But thankfully, there are some fundamental design and UX tricks that can improve your conversion rate quickly.<\/p>\n<p>In short, here\u2019s nine principles to follow that will ensure a conversion rate that is the envy of your competitors:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"num-list\">\n<li>Always put your customers at ease<\/li>\n<li>Reassure them with the use of testimonials and reviews<\/li>\n<li>Use content that they understand<\/li>\n<li>Create a strong sense of urgency<\/li>\n<li>Give them all information they need to make a decision without overwhelming them<\/li>\n<li>Experiment with exit-intent popups<\/li>\n<li>Leverage social sharing<\/li>\n<li>Ensure your site is mobile friendly<\/li>\n<li>Turn one-time shoppers into loyal customers<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_can_we_help\"><\/span>How can we help?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>chilliapple has been supporting eCommerce clients, whether their websites are built on Magento, PrestaShop or WooCommerce, since 2008 to design, build and maintain their online businesses.
