How can I attract more customers to my merchant’s website?

Posted on October 18th, 2009 by admin

Many months have passed since I put up my merchant’s website online. It only registered a handful visitors. How can I attract more customers to my website?

Use direct mail

It is the best way to reach the exact type of people who would buy the products you sell.

Research has shown 98% of consumers bring in their mail the day its delivered ( I know the mailbox is the first place I go when I get home), and that 99% of post cards get read and 73% of envelopes get openend.

SO…How do you turn a captive audience into money?

You do what 90% of busineses Don’t do….and that is…Do your homework! and be prepared !

If you do…your direct mail will be successful for you. …just ask any business who uses direct mail over and over….do you suppose its because they’ve figured out how to make it work? …yup.

There are some great direct mail tips at

    Follow good but attractive website design. Then make sure you sell only quality, hot products. Don’t forget about advertising your website. You can use mass email to inform your friends about it or use word of mouth.
