Its has been two decades since the first introduction of the very first web design, two decades of non stop developing, two decades of never ending “keeping up” two decades or learning new ways to established a much more better design for consumers.
From a simple design develop so that American scientist can easily understand to act as “transmission tool”, web design becomes even more enticing and easy to use due to the changing needs and updating technology of every generation.
As of the moment, web design is a very big part in terms of product and service promotion over the web. As Ecommerce started, countless Ecommerce Web Designers started to learn new ways to enhance their designs. And just as they are catching up with the latest changes, E-mobile comes into picture.
Due to the popularity of smart phones and tables, Ecommerce website owners saw the possibility of gaining traffic from this medium, thus, mobile ecommerce rise.
At first, it was really hard for Ecommerce Web Designers to shift from ecommerce web designing to mobile designing, but as the saying goes, keep on learning and one day you’ll get the proper formula. “To be able to gain traffic, thus resulting sales, the design also plays a major role, just the same as how Ecommerce Web Designs plays its part to increase its audience on the web”
Here are some tips that might help you if you are planning to go Mobile.
First is to create a homepage that is congruent to a portal, make your design in grid style so that browsing for other pages can be easily done. Create check out buttons that can be easily notice.
Use icons instead of texts, the reason is simple, by using icons it makes it easier for a user to spot and click whatever he/she is searching.
Make it readable, not too small and not too large, we don’t have enough space/screen (4 inches at the most) unlike a desktop or a laptop. A medium size is better, easy to notice, easy to tap.
Make your design clean, too much buttons, too much pictures and too much texts is hard for the eyes specially if there is only a 4” screen. Use drop down menus to categorize your products and services
And lastly, remember to indicate all services and products information accurately. Promos can be placed on the homepage, introduced an offer that only mobile users can avail. And please do pay attention to every detail as much as you are paying attention to your Ecommerce website.
“Pin it”! Have you heard this new craze in online marketing? It’s Pinterest, one the craziest and at a point a scary bookmarking site. Unnerving, in the sense that in a short course of time. Pinterest broke the solid top 10 social networks of all time. Yes, and mind you it’s an invite only social network. Imagine if it’s just like Facebook or even Twitter where you can just create a new account and activate it.
Anyway, Pinterest has been in the industry for two years, serving the users who want to share and collect thing they loved over the web, but its just now that its starting to fully spread its wings to accommodate users. In fact, there are 7.51 million Pinterest users recorded last December, and as of the moment, Pinterest traffic is increasing four fold.
Not only this, it is said that Pinterest drives more traffic than Google+. And I have proven this true, from 800 plus traffic, I gained 23 more users a few minutes after PINNING a post. And the incredible thing is its increasing right before my eyes .
If you are thinking its for a small scale business, like an Ecommerce Web Designer like me, you are so wrong, well known, very well established brands are PINNING. Even the most trusted Search Engine Optimization Company are studying on how they can benefit to this.
Don't get me wrong here. Social Media drives traffic, Yes. It helps you increase your visitors, promote whatever product or service you offer and it also strengthens your brand name as well as the trust for your site. Nonetheless, search engines remains to be the number 1 when it comes to traffic refferals.
Consequently, in the end everything still lies on the hands of the buyer and seller. Its either they want to interact using this social networks or look for another resource. And the fact that trust is not gained on which social media you are using but on how you can cater and serve your customers.
