We will discuss these three points in detail and provide guidance on how to achieve them.

A Great Product

A Clear Website – The Pages

1. A homepage that, within 1 minute, tells visitors what you offer and how you differentiate yourself from others. (Homepage)

Engagement with Your Customers

Personal contact is still the best way to make sales. Including your phone number and email address (or contact form) is essential.

Contact Form 7 offers many possibilities, but it requires some understanding of how it works. Fortunately, we have written an article on how to use this plugin.

Establish Policies for Your Product or Service

Document how your product should be handled and what it should not be used for.
Consider creating a page with the terms and conditions of the product warranty and when it becomes void. (Terms and Conditions)
