Converting traffic to sales - a credibility case study

Posted by John Prendergast

What does it take to do business online? Fundamentally it takes a product or service, competitive pricing, an attractive usable interface, traffic and the ability to convert a portion of that traffic into sales.

This sounds straightforward and, if not easy, at least doable. However many businesses online have implemented all of these prerequisites but still fail to convert visitors into sales. One of the most important missing ingredients often is ‘credibility’.

Credibility is one of those intangibles that is difficult create and even more difficult to measure. Precisely because it is so difficult to communicate exactly how to create or measure it, credibility is often overlooked. This oversight can come at a considerable cost. Credibility can go a long way to answering key questions such as ‘Do I BELIEVE in you, your product, your site?’, ‘Are you trustworthy, are you real, can I give you my credit card in good faith?’, ‘What exactly is it I’m buying?’ and ‘Will I get what I paid for?’
