Therefore, put some effort into making the website simple to read. Use bullet points and subheadings to split your material into shorter sections and paragraphs.
3. Fast loading
Reduce the load time to three to four seconds, or you risk losing people who become bored and skip away. Keep in mind that they won't return if they depart. According to one study, merely two seconds might result in losing up to 87% of users.

Include design components that communicate to the customer the desired course of action. Use words like "purchase now" or "shop" to make it plain to the customer what will happen if they click rather than ambiguous terms like "next" or "continue." It may entail making the language encouraging the call to action pronounced and using colors that stand out from the page's background.

You might also wish to include a filtering option so that users can focus their search and find the right products. Contact information Make sure your contact page has your business name, address, phone number, and email address.
