Dear Reader,

Are you selling online as much as you wish?

No, I didn't think so. Because no matter how well you are doing, you can always do better. Right? :-)

There are always new ideas to discover and new sales tricks to learn from others -- so always stay on top and test what you can to see what works best for your online store (or site).

Here are two articles with suggestions on things you can improve right away. Changes that are free but can give you surprising sales results!

All the best,
Erik G. Olsson, Editor
eolsson@redtienda.com

PS If you don't have your own online store yet, consider to open one, because you are already getting behind. Learn how it works and how you can use redtienda to do so by clicking here: http://www.redtienda.com/english/onlinestores.htm

Redecorate Your Web Site To Increase Sales
  -- by Larry Dotson,

The use of the right colors on your web site can actually increase your sales. When people see certain colors they can change their emotions or they can symbolize things related to the colors. Here are a list of colors with some emotions and symbolizations they can cause:

Red - love, excitement, warmth

Pink - romantic, affection, sensuality

White - purity, peace, perfection

Blue - sky, water, travel, freedom, truth

Purple - royalty, dignity

Black - space, night, authority

Green - money, calm, envy, greed

Yellow - light, purity, understanding

Orange - autumn, youthfulness, fire

Brown - wood, comfort, strength

Its very important to know which emotions or symbolizations will trigger your target audience to buy your product or service. If your selling a money-making product you should use green colors to represent money or bring out the emotion of greed. People also associate comfort and travel with money so you maybe want ad in some brown and blue colors on your web site.

The same principle can be applied to graphics or pictures of your product on your web site. Package your products with colors that will trigger your audience to buy. If your selling a book about how to be more romantic, use red and pink colors on the cover. I hope these simple web site color techniques will increase your business's sales.

Top 7 Ways Web Site Text Can Impact Your Reader's Buying Decision
  -- by Larry Dotson,
http://www.ldpublishing.com

http://www.redtienda.com/english/newsletter44.htm#2

The appearance of your Web site text can actually increase or decrease your sales. The size, font, style and color of your text can easily affect your reader's buying decision. Below are seven points to consider when typing text on your Web site.

1. Easy To Read - You want to make it easy for your visitors to read your text. You don't want to use a light-colored text like yellow on a white background and you don't want to use dark blue text on a black background.

2. Create A Mood - You want to use the color of your text to create a mood for the reader. If you want to create excitement, use some red text. If you want to create greed, use some green text. Use colors that would put you in a mood to buy your product.

3. Grab Their Attention - You can grab your reader's attention by using headlines. Make the headline more noticeable by using a different-colored headline than your ad copy. This offsets the headline and pulls the reader into the rest of your ad copy.

4. Highlight Keywords - You can emphasize phrases and keywords that are important to your readers. For instance, use super, deluxe, fast, low price, free, new, etc. You could use bolding, underlining, italics, color changing, etc.

5. Sizing It Up - You don't want to use text that is too small or too large. You want to use larger text for your headlines and subheadings. You want to use smaller text for your ad copy. If your grandparents can't read it, it's too small.

6. Don't Use All CAPS! - You don't want to use all capital letters in your ad copy. It looks unprofessional and is hard to read. You may want to use ALL CAPS in your headlines to offset it.

7. Font Properly - You want to use a text font that relates to the products or services you're selling. You don't want to use a comic-type font when you're selling business books.
