In the world of eCommerce, gaining customer trust is vital. When first coming across your store, customers immediately gauge the trustworthiness of your site & your brand to decide whether they feel comfortable purchasing from you.
One the best ways to gain customer confidence is prominently displaying user-generated content like product reviews, testimonials, or even social media posts from your customers. Just how effective is customer content at increasing your conversion rates?
According to a study by the Bazaarvoice network, one product review can result in a 10% increase in sales and 200 reviews can results in as much as a 44% increase in sales.
