1. Remove distracting graphic elements
Website Design Tip: Often businesses that sell online think hyper-stylized logos and extra graphic elements will enhance their brand identity.
This may be the case if you work with a great experienced graphic designer, BUT if you are DIYing your own website or using limited help, our suggestion is the simpler the better. Focus your creative impulses on taking stellar product photography.
2. Streamline product navigation
3. Make your main shop page image-first
Website design tip: When choosing images for main shop pages include the shots that show off your full product.
If you’d like to include an interesting detail or the back of the product, for example, consider having the image switch on rollover. You can see this in action by clicking over to Thread & Whisk’s shop page.
