Site Added Extras....

[tomtomg]

A bit of an open ended question, but what simple features can be implemented to make your BP site "better"?

As an example, we added the free Tawk Chat which is great for customers asking quick questions and proven really popular. We also just integrated the Google maps feature as explained on the BP blog: It does nothing but shows a map of the customers delivery address when they compete checkout, but looks a bit "fancier".

It's that kind of thing I'm thinking off.... Those little extras that can make a site more appealing with very little effort!

Cheers

I've often thought about adding some flags to the header so that people from abroad can click and get the products in their currency. Anybody know if that's easy to do? We already use the Change Currency block, but flags would look better I think.

It's possible. Have a look at Brian May Guitars in BP example sites

Thanks. Just got to work out how to do it now! Suggestions welcome.

Just be aware that everything you connect to an external source you are potentially slowing you site down. Facebook, teak, reviews, google, etc, etc all add load times.

build for mobile, that’s where your visitors will be I imagine, so the less clutter the better
