The second quarter of 2020 left shops shut and the consumer with only the essentials. So when the economy was placed before the pandemic, shops have opened up and people want to shop with a vengeance. And the winner in this unique situation? E-commerce. This pandemic has converted a large population of traditional shoppers into e-shopping customers.
According to a optinmonster, The global online shopping market is expected to hit $4 Trillion in 2020.
This is an ideal time for businesses that aren’t selling online, to set up an online store. One of the most popular e-commerce stores is WooCommerce, as statistics show 30% of all e-commerce stores are WooCommerce based. WooCommerce provides an easy transition for your WordPress websites to seamlessly translate into easy to navigate eCommerce stores.
Due to the short attention spans and being spoilt for choices, users continually expect an optimum user experience. WooCommerce stores do provide solutions like real-time inventory, customization, live chat, etc. However if not executed with care, it can make your online store slow to load, costing you potential customers. Less responsive websites are pushed further down the list by Google and other search engines, causing enormous harm to small businesses.
According to a trinity, As per a 2019 study, 37% of visitors are lost if a website takes more than 5 seconds to load. 70% of customers reported that the website loading speed affected their purchasing decision and that the acceptable load time as per consumers was 3 seconds.
So now you know the importance of a fast and responsive e-store. But how do you measure the speed of your existing e-commerce store?
A website speed test is an easy way to check the responsiveness of your WooCommerce store. AddWeb Solutions recommends test tools like Pingdom, GTmetrix, Google Page Speed Insights. Query Monitor is another great tool by WordPress that highlights the redundant functioning aspects of your WooCommerce store.
