This guide shows sellers how to:

  • Increase clicks
  • Improve conversion rates
  • Reduce returns
  • Build trust (especially when using Dispatched by Kingston Express)

Conversion = a customer views your listing and completes a purchase.

High conversion comes from:
✔ Clarity
✔ Confidence
✔ Convenience

📌 Confused customers don’t buy.


1️⃣ Write Titles That Get Clicked (But Stay Accurate) #

Best title structure: #

Brand / Type + Key Feature + Size / Variant

✔ Clear and descriptive
✔ Includes what matters most
✔ Matches the actual product

❌ Avoid:

  • Keyword stuffing
  • ALL CAPS
  • Misleading terms

📌 Accuracy protects ratings and returns.


2️⃣ Use High-Quality, Honest Images #

Image best practices:
✔ Use clear, well-lit photos
✔ Show multiple angles
✔ Show packaging (where relevant)
✔ Show size or scale

❌ Avoid:

  • Blurry images
  • Stock photos that don’t match
  • Over-editing

📸 Images sell before descriptions are read.


3️⃣ Write Descriptions That Remove Doubt #

Good descriptions answer:

  • What is it?
  • Who is it for?
  • What does it include?
  • What does it NOT include?

✔ Use bullet points
✔ Be specific
✔ Mention materials, dimensions, compatibility

📌 Clear descriptions reduce returns.


4️⃣ Use Variations Correctly #

✔ Separate size, color, or style properly
✔ Ensure images match each variant
✔ Avoid mixing unrelated products

⚠️ Incorrect variants cause disputes.
