PRODUCT VIDEOS

This extension, when activated, allows you to embed a YouTube or Vimeo video to a product. This will further showcase your product to potential customers. It will also provide more Social Proof to your store. Visual representation is important when selling online to help clients make a more informed decision.

The importance of product videos can be felt by the fact that 92% of the shoppers say that visuals influence their buying decision. Product video eliminates their doubts and builds trust regarding product quality. Shoppers, hence, feel more comfortable purchasing after watching the video. It also builds credibility about the brand. People realize that the company is authoritative and not deceitful.

One of the major benefits of product videos is that they capture more user engagement. Going through the product description, reading the entire information can sometimes be a tedious task for the customers. Not only it is tiring, but it is also time-consuming.

Product videos provide the same information in a crisp and clear manner and grab more user engagement. Moreover, people are likely to pay attention to videos than images or texts.
