SMOOTH & SHORT REGISTRATION

I really hate the big registrations of some sites it really lowers the enthusiasm and interest on the site. It really makes me feel tired and frustrated, but I really like spending times on pages where the registration is short. Thus having long and messy registration system can frustrate and irritate the users and customers and thus can increase the bounce rate of the site. Whereas short and smooth registration can make users feel satisfied and thus convert visitors into consumers. Thus having short and smooth registration is very important for development of an E-Commerce.

DON’Ts

POOR SEARCH FUNCTION

This is something that can irritate the users very easily and increase bounce rate. A functional and efficient search function is most important ion a website. When the search bar is ineffective then how can I choose or search the service I want? Thus a proper functional search function will help you attract more and more customers and not having one will surely have adverse effects.

INSUFFICIENT DETAILS

Well I check the details of a product before buying it, because that way it helps me to get a basic idea of the product and helps me decide whether it is my best choice or not thus removes the doubts. But in case there aren’t proper sufficient details I really feel unsafe and confused whether to buy that thing or not. Proper sufficient details of the product must be provided in order to clear doubts and help in the decision making of the users. It is something highly essential in the present scenario of E-Commerce.

POOR NAVIGATION

Navigation has a huge effect on the users of a website thus can affect the experience of the users greatly. Having a perfectly functional and effective navigation system is also necessary in order to outstand in the field of E-Commerce. Poor navigation can be really troublesome to the users and thus increase the bounce rates. Thus a functional and efficient navigation can bring out real success in your E-Commerce.

HIDDEN COSTS

This is something every customer fear “HIDDEN COST”. It is something really bad and wrong. It will definitely bring out losses for you. You must show detailed prices and costs to the consumers before providing them the service and it should cover all the expenses, not even a single extra penny should be charged than the value shown to the consumers. It is something extremely important in order to hold consumers to your site.

COMPLICATED CHECKOUT

This part really causes trouble sometime, long and highly complicated checkout forms and processes can really cause mess for the users, whereas short and smooth checkout processes can satisfy the users and bring out much more success. So, this is another essential factor you must follow.
