E‑shop trustworthiness analysis

Start investing in online marketing and paid traffic to your e‑shop only after you are satisfied that the e‑shop is trustworthy for customers abroad and they will buy from it. Or do you need to discover the reasons for low conversion rates for an e‑shop that has already been launched? An e‑shop trustworthiness analysis can help you!

Final check before launching an e‑shop abroad

You have taken pains to analyse your keywords in a foreign language during an SEO translation, consistently implemented keywords in all texts, including metadata, localized the terms and conditions, opened a bank account abroad, connected payment gateways, trained foreign language customer support,… and now you want to make sure that everything is perfect and your e‑shop looks authentic. It is precisely for these cases that we offer an e‑shop trustworthiness analysis!

“Thanks to a trustworthiness check, we discovered a large number of shortcomings when we launched our e‑shops for Germany and the UK that would have discouraged our customers from placing an order. We were surprised at how many untranslated software texts, SEO inaccuracies and useful tips for incorporation in the business terms and conditions were reported to us by NK Expand during a check.”

Procedure for preparing e‑shop trustworthiness analysis

A trustworthiness analysis is usually the last step before a live e‑shop is launched abroad. It comes after completion of an e‑shop SEO translation and other related work and also before you launch paid online marketing and foreign language customer support.

The trustworthiness analysis for your e‑shop will be done by a native speaker of the relevant language who is also a representative of your e‑shop’s target group.

This gives you a relevant and independent view of your e‑shop from someone who knows the local cultural environment and shopping habits of online customers in the country.

The analysis itself covers a visual inspection of the e‑shop, focusing on the following activities:

We go through the e‑shop’s most visited pages (homepage, product categories, about us section, etc.) and at the same time we randomly click through products across the entire e‑shop. During this check, we simulate the process of product selection by a visitor to the e‑shop.
We make a test order, which we let go through, including related e‑mail communications. During an order, we check the purchasing process to make sure it corresponds to the local environment.
We check correct displaying and wrapping of texts on web pages, graphic elements, context and the overall layout of pages.
The output of a trustworthiness analysis is a report on necessary adjustments, which we will send you for implementation. This step takes place on your side, although our translation team will be available to answer any questions or to resolve any ambiguities.
