Use photos of unique jewelry items to enhance your clothing store web design.
Create a strong web design and presence for a clothing store by knowing your products, your market, and why customers should buy your products. There are many options to market and design your site if you know the value of what you are selling and who your target market is. Create excellent content and you can manage the technical and design aspects of the website more easily.
Instructions
1. Make an outline of your site in a flowchart format using paper and pencil sketches. Offer customers many options to find what they are looking for, including product information, fashion trends and unusual specialty items.
2. Take an imaginary customer through the sales cycle of your website. Does every step of the flowchart capture the customer's interest and move her forward to make a purchase on your website? If not, remove it.
3. Organize your site visually so that users can easily find the information they are looking for. Purchase do-it-yourself web design software or hire a professional web designer to use fundamental design principles to keep a similar look and feel throughout the site.
4. Find a web hosting service. There are many available that give free help with technical details like what platform to use, take payments, using auto responders and more. Some web hosting services also provide free web design software and search engine optimization.
5. Design your home page so that it gives the customers an instant picture of your products, your market and why customers should buy your clothing products. Make it easy for your customer to know where to go as soon as the website loads. On your home page, categorize the items your are selling in many ways, including according to clothing type, clothing designer, sizes, and clearance items.
6. Bring attention to displayed clothing by creating links that are easy to navigate back and forward and to another page from any page. Make the site easy to navigate by keeping the links at the left, top or right of the page so they are easy to find and easy to use.
7. Employ a basic graphic structure and color scheme to give your website a personality that appeals to your target market. Remember that you want your customers to look at the clothes that are for sale, not get lost in the website's design. Avoid filling the page with too many graphics and too much copy information.
8. Update your site often with new fashions and include the most current information about fashion trends or testimonials. Anything that will make a customer want to stay longer on your website is valuable content.
9. Offer multiple ways to reach you. Include a phone number, a live customer service support chat link, or insert an e-mail link somewhere highly visible on each page.
10. Launch your website when it is ready to go and always keep your content fresh and updated. Use search engine optimization, online directories, links from other websites, and e-mail marketing to make it easy for customers to find your website. Once you start letting go of your site, so will your users.
