How to get, and where to place comments on your website.
- Feedbacks can increase conversion rate if they are placed on the proper place, for products in online stores, this place is right under the picture of the product or description of it.
- The easiest way to get feedback – is to place scale from 1 to 5 or 10. This way is the simplest and doesn’t require any effort from customer.
- Than more feedback you have than more you will get. As we know, crowd generate crowd, same thing is in Ecommerce. So, at the beginning it is not gonna be easy. As a motivation you can offer discounts or coupons for feedbacks, but it is not the only way.
- You can announce some contests among your customers smth. like “leave a comment and get…” ,“write why do you like it and get…” or even more complicate “take a picture with our product and get…”
- Perfect comment is a comment which works with different objections. These comments affect on conversion rate more than others. More answers visitor can find on the product page – bigger possibility of purchasing you have.
- Another useful option is a “leave a feedback” button near to the purchased items in the account page or cart. You can make this option available, which allows people to leave their feedbacks, only for people who had already bought this product in your store, to avoid unfair assessments and make this scale more objective.
- Try to turn any opinion into a feedback. You have received letter or email about your product, publish it on website (previously ask a permission from the author), good feedback in social network extrapolate to your website e.t.c
- Bad experience is also an experience. Don’t delete all negative comments or feedbacks from the website, it is another proof of your honest. Just leave a reply under it, where you explain problem and provide alternative solution.
