There are roughly 47 billion web pages competing for our attention. Of these, about 12 to 24 million are e-commerce websites, though only 650,000 (or 3 percent) actually net more than $1,000 per year in revenue.

Before I dive into the ways you can increase your site’s conversion rates and improve sales, let’s briefly look at online trust. Creating trust is likened to the new digital currency. Forget about Bitcoin for a moment. If you don’t have the user’s trust — in the way of content, reviews, verifications, and authority — virtually no strategy will help increase your sales.

The simple truth is that consumers don’t want to buy from someone they don’t trust. This relates to products and services just as much as it does to information. If you don’t pay homage to that one simple rule, no amount of work or advertising dollars spent is going to give you the traction you’re after to boost your sales.

It’s monumentally difficult to build the consumer’s trust at the outset. It takes time — something that most entrepreneurs and business professionals simply don’t have enough of. In fact, business is more likened to a race against time, in an effort to earn enough money just to get by.

So, how do we build trust while also increasing a site’s conversion rates? Here are 25 conversion hacks you can do just that. Here we go for the details.
