Editor's Notes
- Although eCommerce is seeing exponential growth, users are becoming careful when making purchases online. With so many helpful guides available, people can determine very quickly, often within a split second, whether a website is authentic or not. So, what can you do to provide customers with piece of mind?
- In the age of social media, it’s quite important that reviews are validated; so, it’s a good idea to link it to the reviewers Twitter or Facebook profiles. A tweet or post from a Twitter or Facebook fan will lend credibility to your brand, more than an anonymous post ever could. For example, marketing software company Marketo features reviews of its products from numerous social media channels. Even if you don’t trust one of the channels, there’s enough here to convince you that Marketo has done good work. Accounting software Xero takes the concept of customer reviews a step further by providing beautiful photos of its customers together with a quote about why they used Xero. They testimonial page itself includes videos, quotes, client names, industry, and a full case study.
- If a potential visitor sees a review of your product from a celebrity, they will immediately associate your product with a trusted face. Skin care brand Proactiv has a page dedicated to celebrity endorsements. Although you may feel as though the testimonials on this page are paid for (and they probably were), these are still famous people who are willing to entrust an important asset (their skin) to Proactiv.
- Being recognized by your customers is great for validation, but it’s also useful to highlight any media coverage you get. Simply putting logos of the websites that have featured you is an effective way of telling visitors that your product has been reviewed by professionals. Tictail does a great job of this by providing small images to all the blogs and newspapers it has been featured in, as well as picking out choice quotes.
- The number of Facebook fans or Twitter followers you have should not be the only barometer of your brand’s success, but it offers visitors an unbiased, quantitative metric as to the authenticity of your site. If you only have a few hundred followers it could be that your brand is new or not enough people care about it. In contrast, if you have thousands of followers it’s clear that a lot of people find your products useful.
- Displaying the team members in a prominent manner also demonstrates that the company is being transparent. In contrast, scammers will usually obscure their identity, hiding behind layers of anonymity. Web design and Drupal experts Chromatic have a beautifully designed “about us” page, featuring photos of the team, a short bio, and links to social media profiles. It’s hard to imagine this website being run by a group of scammers.
