Hello! Every other week, I will be featuring rad sites built using Square Online by sellers like you. It’s a great way to pick up tips that you can incorporate into your own site!
This week we’re going to take a look at store.thebenev.com.au, the online store created by @thebenev.
The first thing I notice when I visit the site is the tasteful header background images. The best background images are those that are visually appealing but don’t have a specific focal point.
The image above has a nice subdued order to it but doesn’t focus on any single object. This is important because the image may be cropped and displayed differently on different screen sizes.
The second thing I notice is the super clean product photos. I’ve mentioned this before in featuring other sites how important product photos can be towards making a sale.
Not only does it make it easier for your customers to really see what it is they are buying, but it screams professionalism. It’s also super easy to do this now using the Square Photo Studio app, which automatically removes the background from photos you take with your phone. Super neat!
Lastly, under the GIFTING menu item is a link to a page where you can buy gift cards. Gift cards are likely something you’ll want to offer, especially during the holiday season.
This is really easy to add to a site with Square Online since it is automatically created for you. You just need to add a gift cards page to your site.
