The goal of an E-Commerce website is of course to make sales, but it is also to have repeat customers. When your business is selling products online it is very important to have information, an organized, and eye-catching product page. You may have an amazing product, but if customers can not navigate and efficiently through your website then sales become difficult.

Landing pages are generally designed for a specific campaign, while product pages highlight the featured product being sold. This can show shoppers what the product will do, how it will benefit them, and overall make them feel like they need the product.

Below, I am going to show you some of my favorite product page’s that are effective in making a sale. Some of the techniques that these companies use might be some that you want to think about when starting your own e-commerce store.

1. Lush: Transparency and Educational

Lush is a well-known bath and bodywork company that prides themselves on their eco-friendly and all-natural products. The transparency of the company is what makes this company so effective as e-commerce as well as a retail store. This transparency can be found with a cohesive list of all the ingredients that go into the product.

Lush is also very educational with the products that they offer. They offer how to use short videos for their products. For example, for their bar soap which is also 100% cruelty-free made with natural ingredients they have created an article that can be found here on how to properly wash your hands.

2. Ban.do: Inclusivity

Ban.do is a great example of a product page. They focus on bright warm colors that are very inviting. They sell a variety of products from clothing, to eye-catching organization accessories. At the top of the website they have a banner which states, “We Believe Black Lives Matter” as well as “Free shipping For All Members of the Friend Zone.”

With the current events happening a brand that focuses on inclusivity and positivity is a great way to create an effective e-commerce website in 2020.

3. Fabletics: VIP Price Reduction

When purchasing clothes from a website there are plenty of other sites to compare the price. Fabletics highlights the retail price and VIP member price. In the example below, they create incentives in a variety of ways by offering many different creative ways to make a sale. First, off they offer a 2 for $24 deal on leggings, free shipping, and put a time limit on when your offer expires.

4. Luxy Hair: Limited Time Deal

Luxy hair immediately creates a need to buy their products with a limited-time deal of $15 off for first-time customers. This is a smart technique that e-commerce stores use to add new customers to their email list. This way customers can be updated frequently with new products and discounts.

5. Glossier: Offering Similar Products

Similar to Lush, Glossier gives informative information about their products with a list of all key ingredients and how to use the product. One of the most effective parts of the website is referencing other products that combine well with the one the customer had in mind of purchasing. This is found in this example with their Milk Oil waterproof makeup remover.

6. Pandora: Send a Hint

This is a very unique e-commerce store that has the option to send friends, family, or loved ones a hint that you like one of their products. This is a great way to let others know that you are interested in receiving something specific as a gift. It also recommends similar products that you may be interested in. This is another very successful marketing tip.Pandora

9. Missguided: Variety of Discounts

Missguided product page has a variety of discounts that alter frequently. The popular clothing site offers an extra 15% off your total when you download their app, and an extra 10% if you are a student. Being a student myself, this is a big incentive to shop at Missguided apparel. This advertising approach for an online-only e-commerce shop is very effective at creating a purchase.

10. Bellroy: Size Comparison

Purchasing a wallet online can be difficult for some consumers.

14. Nectar Mattress: Risk-Free Shopping

Purchasing a new mattress is not something that is done as frequently as new clothing and other products, but when done online it is extremely difficult to know if the mattress will work for you. Some are too soft, too firm, and don’t allow for a good night of sleep. Nectar takes the risk out of this by offering a 365 trial period along with free shipping and returns. Assuring that your purchase is risk-free.
