According to research, it takes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/01449290500330448\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">50 milliseconds<\/a> for a visitor to create an opinion about your website, whether they are willing to stay on your website, or they are eager to get away leave without any action.<\/p>\n<p>Marketers of today know that the majority of people buy products from brands that incites an emotional response in them. The same principle stands true for making a buying decision on the website.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>\u201cReason leads to conclusions. Emotion leads to action.\u201d ~Donald Calne<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The millisecond study mentioned above is perhaps not a bad thing at all. The consumers of today are busy and well-informed. They can sense the underlying intention in your website from a click away. Customers crave integrity, need fulfilment, transparency, an emotional connection and a simple solution that can cure their pain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>94% of the first impressions are design-related<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/985692.985776\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">research<\/a> conducted on health-related sites concluded that the information presented on the website influences the trust of the customer. The study showed that the look and feel of the website is the primary driver of the first impression.<\/p>\n<p>The study found that the core <a href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/\">design of the website<\/a> is leaving a strong impression on the user than the content.<\/p>\n<p>The customers were found complaining about the complexity of the design, the overly busy layout, boring web design, complicated navigation, too much text, and poor search capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Only 6% of the feedback complained about the content. Visual appeal is something that leaves a good or a meh first impression on the visitors.<\/p>\n<p>A great design will get people to trust you and stick them around. The poor design creates skepticism and drives people away.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\"><p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<\/div><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/blog\/practical-tips-to-enchant-website-visitors-instantly-in-50-milliseconds\/#How_to_make_an_excellent_first_impression_with_design\" >How to make an excellent first impression with design?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/blog\/practical-tips-to-enchant-website-visitors-instantly-in-50-milliseconds\/#Go_for_a_unique_website_design\" >Go for a unique website design<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/blog\/practical-tips-to-enchant-website-visitors-instantly-in-50-milliseconds\/#Use_Inspiring_Elements_to_Entice_Customers\" >Use Inspiring Elements to Entice Customers<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/blog\/practical-tips-to-enchant-website-visitors-instantly-in-50-milliseconds\/#Make_a_robust_above-the-fold_impression\" >Make a robust above-the-fold impression<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/blog\/practical-tips-to-enchant-website-visitors-instantly-in-50-milliseconds\/#To_Conclude_it_all\" >To Conclude it all<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_make_an_excellent_first_impression_with_design\"><\/span><strong>How to make an excellent first impression with design?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Go_for_a_unique_website_design\"><\/span><strong>Go for a unique website design <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Imagine you are walking down the road and you come across a cow. It&#8217;s just a cow so you\u2019ll pass-by. But what if it is a Purple cow. You\u2019ll not only stop; you\u2019ll take a selfie with the cow and even and go Facebook Live.<\/p>\n<p>After all, you don\u2019t get to see a Purple cow every day. The same theory applies to your website. Every day thousands of sites make it to Google search results, and out of those, most of them feel the same.<\/p>\n<p>To grab the attention of your customers, you must showcase something different. Something that no one else is displaying to the customer. Something like a Purple Cow in the middle of the road.<\/p>\n<p>It is normal to give high-fives when the website is launched. In the midst of all this, the owner often forgets to ask the customer why they liked shopping from your site in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>Brand identity is more than just the brand image. For an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/ecommerce-website-development\/\">eCommerce website<\/a>, brand identity is all about website navigation, presentation, security logo, and adopting the latest technology.<\/p>\n<p>Think for a moment on this. If your website is not indistinguishable from other websites, why would people want to stick to your site at all?<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Inspiring_Elements_to_Entice_Customers\"><\/span><strong>Use Inspiring Elements to Entice Customers <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1177\/0047287507312405\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">study<\/a> found that if a website can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.branex.ae\/blog\/how-to-increase-traffic-on-your-website\/\">inspire visitors<\/a> on their first visit, the deal might end by them purchasing the product, even if it is sometime later.<\/p>\n<p>If you can create a visually appealing stimulus it will force people to stay longer on the site which means, and there is a good chance that they will buy something from you or return to your website when need something.<\/p>\n<p>When creating the first impression on the visitor, <strong>usability<\/strong> is something that will lead to<strong> credibility<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>\u201cWe don\u2019t sell lipsticks.

People get frustrated with unclear terms and conditions (hidden shipping costs, etc.)and even the complexity of the website. When the visitor hits a snag, there must be an option to get them out of there. Either by call or customer support chat, the user must feel comfortable to order from your website.<\/p>\n<p>Mostly, it is just about the navigation of the website. The user expects a search bar that can lead them to their desired product. The first time customers often look for discount coupons or even time-sensitive promotions. Don\u2019t make them wait too much for something they need.<\/p>\n<p>You can use the product on sale, a rewards program or even free shipping to get hold of the attention of the customer.<\/p>\n<p>How about increasing the size of the search bar, removing the trust symbol, and using a \u201cGrand Sale\u201d button instead.
