Hello Pedro,

I've just visited your website at www.ecoplants.net (be careful while typing you wrote ecoplats here!!)

If you want to turn visitors in buyers, you have to convince them, to secure them, to seduce them, to get them appreciate you...

After all that you may turn them into buyers. You will still have to demonstrate the worth, interest & added value of what you have to offer.

The good news is that it's up to you. My advice is this : talk more on your website, give more information about you, your business and motivations... Grab people attention, invite feedback, add interactivity (a newsletter that talk about ecological issues for instances?).

As i can read on the homepage Ecoplants.net "sells ecological and natural indoor plants to mainland Europe and Worldwide"... I don't even know what this all means!!! be more expansive, if you have ecological motivations explain!

Talk to me, educate me on these issues, i don't say you'll convert me into a buyer, but at least i will know about your business and could talk about it to relatives and friends, who knows?

Oh yeah, it's far better to have your own space on the net and not only a domain name. It's harder to convince people to buy your products while you don't even make the effort to receive them in your own home, i mean space on the net...

So the bad news is doing business online is like doing business offline. Go back to the basic...

First i recommand you this article:
