How you doing?
It’s a cloudy Wednesday here in Sicily, and life’s back to normal after a very enjoyable summer. Here at Business Bloomer HQ (ehm… my living room) there is a lot going on and I need to move fast. In fact, I’m going to become a dad in January! We’re also looking for a house in Palermo, planning our 2-in-1 wedding/baptism next summer, re-setting up our own businesses and (because I’m crazy) working on side projects as well. I need a lot of positive energy 😀
Anyhow, welcome back to our WooCommerce Weekly appointment – here comes a series of WooCommerce tutorials put together by yours truly so that you can learn something new.
New WooCommerce Tips
WooCommerce: Display Product Up-sells @ Thank You Page
One of the most important WooCommerce pages, conversion-wise, is the Thank You page. That’s your chance to offer something special to a user that has just turned into a customer and is therefore more likely to purchase again. We’ve seen how to include a whole WordPress page inside the Thank You page, how to redirect customers to a different Thank You page URL, how to display a custom social media share box on the Thank You page, but in this article I want to expand a little more on the topic and show a list of purchasable products via a shortcode. The thing is that the Thank You page “does not exist” inside the WordPress pages, so you can’t just add a shortcode in a page. We must do that via a PHP action hook and the do_shortcode() WordPress function. Enjoy: https://www.businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-display-product-up-sells-thank-you-page/
5 WooCommerce Plugins That Will Increase Your Conversions
Conversion rate is one of the most important metrics to look out for when running an online store. If you thought attracting people to your site was enough to persuade them to buy your products, well, you’re seriously mistaken. It turns out that the average conversion rate in eCommerce is only 1-2%. So, even if you’re doing everything right, you’ll be closing the deal only 2% of the time. That means every little bit matters. In this difficult territory of getting people to convert, comes a list of growth-hacking and optimization plugins for WooCommerce that will put your store’s conversions on fire: https://www.businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-plugins-increase-conversions/
