computer with words: has your store been marked as spam

Has your boutique been marked as spam online?

With cheap foreign dropshipping clothing websites popping up all over the web, customers are warier than ever to shop at a new unknown site. Smart shoppers look for reviews before making their first purchase. Aside from adding reviews to your website, you can check to see how you rate on websites like scamadviser.com. This website allows shoppers to vote on whether the site is Legit, Scam, or Sells fakes. Shoppers can also provide a review, and Scamadviser will determine a trust rating. The rating will look at factors such as speed, countries involved in the set-up, owner’s identity, SSL certificate, and more.

Store owners can claim their website and manage reviews by creating an account with Safe.Shop. The Ecommerce Foundation created Safe.Shop and Scamadviser as an initiative to help consumers shop online globally. The website offers free and paid memberships, but I do not think a paid membership is necessary.

Increase Authenticity

Consider offering an incentive (such as 10% off their next order) to customers who are willing to write a store review. The more proof new shoppers can find that your store is the real deal, the more likely they will make the purchase.
