But I don’t sell ‘things’....
99% of companies, organisations, charities and not for profits have something to sell online.
You may not have physical products to list in an online store, but e-commerce covers more than digital shop fronts.
E-commerce solutions also include booking and reservation functionality, digital downloads, streaming, pay-per-view and subscription services among others.
For example a High Street hair salon needs a new website, they may not be able to sell their key services online but could offer appointment booking via a diary availability page or have an e-commerce space to sell the products that are used in store.

Getting The Basics Right
The Must Have Features of Good e-commerce Design
Individual Page Goals
Each page of your site needs a specific set of measurable goals. Our team use design features and narratives that help to encourage the right buyer behaviour for each page. Whether that’s simple click-throughs, requesting information, making a purchase or sharing content via social media.
Product Pages That Sell
Your product pages are the most essential aspect of your e-commerce site and need to be flawless. Priority Pixels can help you realise this vision with clean, clear and well-designed content. Showcasing your products in the best way and giving the buyer all the information they need before they click Buy.
Express Checkouts
Removing ‘barriers to purchase’ is something we know all businesses look for. This is why we take special care to optimise your checkout process and smooth the sales path to make your customer’s life easier.
Intelligent Search Functions
Our design team use a number of tools to improve the search functionality of your site to help your clients find the right product quickly. These features also allow you to better understand the behaviour of customers on your site and respond to their needs.
Bespoke Recommendations
With a comprehensive and information led structure, our build team can create an environment that enhances the chance of follow-up sales by showing users targeted recommendations based on their previous purchases and behaviours.
SEO & Visibility
Making sure your site can be found easily and quickly is all about employing a great SEO strategy that keeps evolving and improving. We build our sites to be SEO focussed and constantly evaluate your results to make sure you achieve the best search results possible.
Mobile Optimisation
Many of your customers will view your site and make a purchase using a Smartphone or Tablet. This means your entire web presence and especially your customer’s sales journey needs to be fully optimised. We create responsive websites as standard; fully scalable to work seamlessly on all digital devices.
Avoiding Abandoned Carts
Each year nearly £4 trillion worth of goods and services are left in ‘Abandoned Carts’. You may have experienced this on your own site and been frustrated at the lost sales and impact on your profits.
At Priority Pixels our aim is to provide you with the most streamlined, efficient and cost effective design, web construction and on-going support, enabling you to maximise your sales and win new customers.
One of the approaches we employ is to help companies recoup lost sales from abandoned carts by using one or more of the following techniques.
Abandoned Cart Emails
Using automated email correspondence and creating trigger-based communications you can send highly personalised and targeted emails to new and existing clients letting them know about everything from a new offer or discount to reminding them about the items they’d added to their shopping cart and left behind.
Remarketing
Remarketing or Retargeting customers who have previously visited your website via other online platforms and sites offers a much higher Click Through Rate (CTR) than PPC or other types of Paid Search Advertising. We install simple and widely used tracking pixels that log what customers view on your site, reminding them later about the products they showed interest in.
Sales Path Optimisation
Keeping it simple is the key to optimising your customers sales journey but time after time we see sites with overly complex systems, insufficient payment gateway integration and missing information. All of which lead to customers losing interest, becoming frustrated and clicking away.
By looking at your site the way a customer would experience it, we can flag up and improve all those gaps and glitches that are barriers to a user making a purchase.
Exit Intent Technology
EIT is a simple but intelligent and powerful piece of technology aimed at detecting when users are about to leave a site. Designed to avoid abandoned carts, it can predict the intent of the user and uses prompts to help the customer complete the transaction.
Before launching EIT on your site we would employ an initial A/B test to assess which styles and types of content your customers best respond to.
