Using The Toggi Website As A Good Example Of A Good Retail Business Site

By Essie Osborn


Many online retailers fail in the e commerce area due to poor designs in their webpages and sites. The online retailer Toggi on the other hand has possibly one of the better sites online for retailers in their line of business. This article will look at the main points of why their website is something to be worth admiring and even copying if one wants to succeed in online retail sales and purchases.

The website of this retailer gains its loading speed from the fact of its simple layout. Even dial up connections will not have a problem loading up the page in full. Faster connections of course starting from 1 mbps sees the page load almost instantly and quite smoothly. This of course is a boon for the store especially when it comes to impatient internet surfers and shoppers.

The speed of course gets a boost from the simpler design of the site which has basically minimal graphics and special effects. It shows main offerings of the store in the center and choices of apparel by gender on the left. By the main tabs on the left side one can choose by organized items that the store has to offer.

The left side also sees a tab that separates the equestrian riding gear and products on the bottom from outdoor apparel on top. The tab is called technical guide tab and is quite interesting. It is a guide that shows the different materials the products are made of and what advantages these materials gives for each of the products in the product line. This sort of additional information being given to customers and prospective customers is something that is quite new and not seen always.

Further clicking on in any tab also opens up a further sub menu that further gives a collection for men women and others such as equestrian use. An accessories section is also quite interesting in that it shows a collection for bags, scarves and even socks that the buyer might be interested in.

Furthermore the site also contains links to social network sites on the left side also. One can connect to the store Facebook, Twitter or even Instagram pages and further check on their product offerings. A handy tab regarding product news is also located here.

A further interesting thing that the company does on its site is a registration page for its products. It is a novel idea for people who have purchased products from their many stores to register these products, place of purchase as well as comments. It is a good after purchase marketing ploy to get current customers and keep them. The product registration page captures names, contact address and also comments on why one chose the product in the first place. The data on this is good for further market research and customer segmentation.

Thus in a nutshell, the qualities for a good website for an apparel business can be summed up as having good speed, clear and simple layout, simple directions, and also customer feedback and service. This website can thus be used as an example for other stores to emulate to make themselves not only successful in the real world, but in the virtual world as well.
