Increase Sales and Profits
If usability testing can improve your visitor retention rate, decrease your shopping cart drop-out rate, and improve your customers' brand experience, it is inevitable that your sales and bottom-line will improve.
In trying to increase your sales, you need to adopt the mindset of a potential customer. Would you want to buy the products on your site? Are the audience you're targeting the ideal buyers for your product? If so, you're part of the way there.
Next, is the process of finding information on your products easy? Do users need more information than you currently offer? If you're selling technical goods, your customers might want to be able to download datasheets and schematics. Do you offer these?
The final part of the process is to see whether it's easy to purchase your products after the customer has chosen to buy. Is it obvious where users should click to initiate a purchase?
