|
|
Hi all!
Quick question. I am considering using an ecrater premium template and my own domain on my ecrater store, however I just wanted to make sure that doing this will not affect traffic or google shopping exposure etc?
Many thanks for reading |

No they shouldn't. I have the old template still, but I do have my own domain name and I don't see that it has stopped or slowed sales. Stopped and slowed sales I blame google directly! |

The premium template feature is fairly new and I don't think anyone using it post regularly on the forum. Personally, I find stores using the premium template confusing, but that may be just me.
There are 2 ways of using your own domain name. With the paid service, the customer will see your custom domain name when they are in your store. You also have the option (without ecrater cost) of having your own domain name forward traffic to your eCRATER store. For example, If you type moonwishesstore.com into the search bar on your browser, you will arrive at http://moonwishesstore.ecrater.com/ because she is using her own domain name that has been forwarded to her eCRATER store.
There is an example of the new template and the custom domain name at http://www.gsmbg.com/ . When you click on a page, you still see the custom domain along with the rest of the link. However, when you go to checkout, the checkout page switches to the https://ecrater.com pages.
I would not think there would be any effect on Google Shopping since eCRATER will still submit your items on the feed. However, the GS feed will lead to the eCRATER Marketplace as it does for all eCRATER stores.
