Hi, new e-commerce entrepreneur here.
If you look at top selling websites (AliExpress, Amazon, iHerb) you will not find 'add to cart' button on a main page. I don't know why. The only answer I have found is at this article.
It says:
I recommend you not to put "add to cart" button in the product list if:
- your products are filled with details and usually are bought after thorough characteristics research. Better make them go to the product page to buy;
- people usually buy one item, not ten (unique products, expensive products);
- you are a fashion clothes shop
I feel not quite answer to my question. I mean your client have to make additional clicks if they want to buy something. They must to go to a product page and then make an additional action. Does it worth it?
I'm confused because the main goal of each e-commerce website is to eliminate a friction of buying goods on a website.
Here is my website I ask for argumentative critique. Thank you.
