1) Intro – Present your company
As the saying goes, “a picture is worth a thousand words.” A stunning cover image shows your visitors where they are and sparks interest in your company in seconds (tip: look for high-resolution images with a width of 1200px or more).
Ultimately, it’s up to you to decide exactly how you want to address your visitors. Keep your title and subtitle brief. Show who you are and how you differ from competitors.
2) Logo – More than just images and text
Place your logo in a prominent location! A logo has more than just a good look. It helps customers remember your company, sets you apart from the competition, and can even visually communicate information about your products.
Don’t have a logo yet? No problem! There are many ways to get one – from free to extremely expensive. We’re happy to help you with our localsearch logo service.

- Define products and product categories
- Upload high-quality product images
- Write product descriptions
- Create different product variants
- Set pricing
- That’s it!
This is how you can easily create your own online shop without a website.
4) Describe your company
Give your homepage personality by revealing more details about the products and the company.
Does your company offer more than just low prices or high quality?
Everyone hears and sees a lot of marketing phrases these days like “unique quality,” “low prices,” “fast delivery,” and “best service” – and they are usually overlooked.
Think about your business processes and write down the real benefits you provide to customers at each step. For example:
- Do you use local and/or organic products?
- Same-day delivery?
- Do you offer homemade items?
- Do you allow customization?
- Do you have the largest color selection on the market?
- Tip: Be specific!
5) Customer Testimonials – The Most Valuable Type of Marketing
Nothing convinces potential customers more than an authentic customer testimonial. However, people often forget how good they are at spotting fake reviews.
So, rule #1 is: Post a real testimonial. Friends and family might be able to help. But make sure you stay honest and say more than empty phrases like “cool, awesome product.”
6) Show yourself!
This section of your website is a place where your visitors can learn who you are, what you do, and what prompted you to open your online store.
It’s not just a place for curious customers, but often the first step in building a relationship. Think of it as the first place where you present yourself as the face of your company.
7) Location – Where can we find you?
“Why provide a physical address when selling online?” – Here’s the answer:
For many customers, shopping online is a matter of trust. Who am I buying from? Will I really get what I ordered? By providing an address, you demonstrate trust and reliability. It can also be the address for returns, refunds, or in-store pickup.
8) Your shop URL
By default, your homepage name will look something like this: store12345.myshopsettings.com.
Instead of 12345, the name will contain your own shop ID. Of course, this won’t mean anything to your potential customers. Therefore, you can simply replace your shop ID with the actual online shop name, e.g., samplegmbh.myshopsettings.com. This will make the link more recognizable, SEO-friendly, and look better. With a paid subscription, you can also link your own domain to the homepage—e.g., samplegmbh.ch.
