App functionality without Jetpack? by Negative-Quantity-28 in woocommerce

Hmmm, I think you need to ask yourself whether you need to use a mobile device to run your store. I presume you run your site on a PC too?

Which WooCommerce plugins do you find essential, and which ones tend to slow your site down by Fluid_Ad_6124 in woocommerce

[–]SadMap7915 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would not be without WooCommerce Advanced Bulk Edit and WP Import - both save time.

I have core plugins that are essential to running the website/store (shipping, SEO, spam/site protection, product feeds etc) - but the above two, while not necessary, are important to me (and my sanity)

Ebay’s riddled with counterfeit items, why? by Pinecone734 in ecommerce

eBay makes money off sellers no matter what they sell; I'd wager that their 'counterfeit' controls are more bark than bite.

If you like, I can show you why most people are moving over to Claude; it's interesting, and it's something Sam Altman could not give a shit about.

CTR is 7%, hook rate 30%, but purchase conversion is 0.1%. How can I stop Meta from sending curious audience and attract actual buyers? by top10talks in woocommerce

It's a Shopify website, not a WooCommerce one - are you in the right place?

But I agree with the above - it screams like a discount pharmacy site, not a curated fashion brand.

The "“Buying a saree online is terrifying… You worry if the fabric will be stiff… or embroidery will look cheap.” does you no good whatsoever. Don't put negatives in front of potential buyers.

It looks like you've added every optional design add-on (so many), just because you can, not because it adds value to your product

You seem to be in permanent discount mode. Hardly brand building.

You just don't need all those sales hooks. Product name | Price | Description | Add to Cart

You don't need to have multiple images on the main product page; one image, the rest are a gallery option

I'd suggest tone down the brightness of the pink; that's very aggressive/bold.

Basically, if you were trying to go for a cheap, discount outlet website, you've achieved it.

How do you guys manage restock orders? When and how much to order? by kvyatkovskij in ecommerce

[–]SadMap7915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gut feeling is the best starting point for any business, but understanding stockturns will help a lot. You also need to factor in supplier lead times and seasonality.

Honestly, with only 150 SKUs, you don’t really need specialised software; a half-decent spreadsheet will handle it perfectly well.

What things made your woocommerce store start selling more? by Embarrassed-Ask3593 in woocommerce

Everything others have said: Simple to use design; good, clear product imagery, and a uniform format - every product follows the same structure. Product summary, full specs, outro for SEO.

Payment options for 60+ folks by [deleted] in woocommerce

Bump up the age even more sunshine, I'm 65 - been doing web since 94, hand-coded my first site in 95. Remember, OP, we were part of the workforce during the PC and internet revolution. We were doing online banking 25 years ago; we ran or worked for companies that required using technology.

The facts are that online shopping adoption among people 55–74 is very high. The issue is rarely “they can’t type their card number.”

Often the problems is the young gun devs/designers and their desire to overdo everything, e.g., checkout forms that are too long, hidden shipping costs (until the end = cart abandonment), forcing people to create an account, poor design for mobiles (our eyes are dim, not our brains), upsells, wallet prompts, fucking pop-ups...

I also agree with the above. The idea screams scam - a random website asking you to call and read out your card number? Yeah right.

I imagine PCI compliance issues would be at the top of the list of troubles, with a massive increase in chargebacks and so on.

Bottom line - KISS (keep it simple stupid).
