Optimize online shop
Not every online shop generates the desired sales. We'll show you how your shop works.
The problem: Your online shop is nicer than your sales figures
At digitalists we get your online shop selling - with strategy, design, technical expertise and the willingness to continuously optimize until the shop really performs.
It rarely happens that we see a shop and think: “Everything is perfect here.” There are almost always weak points.
Sometimes they are obvious:
- The shop is not mobile-optimized - although 60-70% of visitors come from mobile phones
- The product images are weak
- The checkout process is too complex
- Delivery costs only become visible at the end - and that's exactly where the customer stops.
- The payment options are too limited
- Trust signals are missing: no reviews, no imprint, no contact option
Sometimes they are more subtle:
- Product descriptions do not address the right target group
- There is a lack of clear positioning: Who is this shop actually for?
- The page appears visually overloaded or structurally unclear
- There is no upsell or cross-sell strategy
- Shipping tracking and the returns process seem cumbersome
Each of these problems costs sales - sometimes 5%, sometimes 50%. All in all, this is the difference between “we earn something” and “we really make sales”.
How digitalists optimize your online shop
We proceed systematically - not based on gut feeling or current trends, but based on data, with psychological understanding and technical precision.
-
1. Step
Shop audit
Where are the problems? We analyze your shop the way customers experience it. Where are you losing sales? Where are the biggest levers? We look at:
- Does the navigation work intuitively?
- Are the product pages structured convincingly?
- What is the checkout experience like?
- Where do customers drop off?
- Which pages convert and which don't?
-
2. Step
Strategic clarity
Who are you selling for? Clarity is crucial. Anyone who speaks to everyone doesn't really speak to anyone. But if you consistently design the shop for your ideal customer, she will also perceive her as the right choice.

3. Step
Design & UX
A shop that is supposed to invite you to buy needs a design that works:
- Clear structure: Immediately understandable where to click
- Strong product presentation: High-quality images, precise descriptions, relevant details
- Building trust: Reviews, guarantees, contact options, transparent shop operator information
- Slimmer checkout: As few steps as possible, secure payment options, no hidden information
- Mobile First: Because the majority of purchases today take place on smartphones

4. Step
Conversion Rate Optimization
Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) answers a simple question: How do we get more sales out of existing visitors? We test, measure and optimize - not just once, but continuously.
E-commerce as a source of income
If a relevant part of your sales comes online - whether 10% or 90% - then this channel deserves real attention.
That means: Budget for optimization, continuous testing, careful product management, traffic-generating marketing and analytics that show what really works.
We will set up the system for you - not so that you are permanently dependent on us, but so that your team understands the basics and can manage the shop independently.
Technical: Performance, stability & Security
A shop that looks good but loads slowly or seems insecure won't sell. Therefore :
Fast loading times
Performance optimization until the numbers are right
Security
SSL, PCI compliance, data protection – everything implemented correctly
Stability
The shop also works under load - for example on Black Friday.
Scalability
The technical infrastructure grows with your company.
What digitalists do differently with their online shop
We are not just technicians who develop a shop. We are business thinkers who make a shop work. We ask: What is your goal? How does the shop support this? And what specifically can be improved?
We have an eye for details that cost sales: the weak product image, the unclear wording, the point in the checkout where the customer abandons. These details are real money.
And we measure, test and optimize – not as a one-off project, but as an approach. A shop is never finished. He just keeps getting better.
