T Tony’s take

Alright boss, here's the deal. Score 71 out of 100 — solid bones, but you're leaving money on the table.

Your product page knows how to sell. Reviews, stock status, a buy button you can actually find. Good. But near that button, where the nervous shopper makes up their mind, the shipping story is missing in action.

Three things I'd fix first, in order:

  • Put shipping reassurance next to the buy button. Delivery date, returns, payment safety — within thumb distance.
  • Tighten the homepage promise. Right now it whispers. Make the main offer and proof loud and singular.
  • Add trust on the category page. Ratings on listing cards nudge the click toward the products that convert.

Fix the close-to-the-money stuff first. That's where the cashflow hides.
