🎯 WEEKLY INSIGHT
Identify your highest-impact endorsements and feature them on the homepage to command attention & convert.
We noticed two huge industry names within testimonials for a fitness brand. So we isolated them into their own section and pulled them to the very top of the homepage.
The result? A 19.27% lift in conversions and 84.31% increase in revenue per visitor.
For the wellness industry, celebrity reviews build trust.
They immediately show customers that you’re in with the top influencers of your industry.
Well-known endorsements can build trust fast. But only if they align.
If your product is backed by a recognizable expert your audience knows and trusts, highlight that quote high on the homepage.
It can outperform standard reviews, but only when the validation feels relevant and credible.
Prove your popularity with these testimonials front and center.
Go test for yourself and increase purchase confidence.
⭐ Takeaway: If your brand has expert or influencer endorsements, give them their own space. They carry more weight than standard reviews if they’re easy to spot and clearly separated from everyday testimonials.
