High Converting Design Inspiration

Blue Nile is the world's leading online diamond jeweler.

Their website has potential, but a few strategic changes could take conversions to the next level.

If I were in charge of their CRO, here's how I would optimize each page. 👇

1️⃣ Homepage - your site's first impression.

I would improve it with lifestyle imagery in the hero banner to inspire visitors.

Clear "Shop" CTAs and a visual navigation will guide them seamlessly.

2️⃣ Product page - the core of the shopping experience.

My approach?

Streamline customization for simplicity.

Highlight product visuals and reviews to build confidence.

Flexible payments seal the deal.

3️⃣ Cart Drawer - where we maximize conversions.

Here I would emphasize free shipping to reduce abandonment.

Confirm customization details.

And of course, make the "Checkout" button impossible to miss!
