10 Online Shop Owners Who Have An Amazing Website (& How You Can Too!)
Little Sparrow Tea
Little Sparrow Tea sells unique, delicious teas. We like how they explain the differences between all the different tea and how each is made.

Mini Learners
As soon as you land on Mini Learners website, you know exactly what they sell, the style, and how much one of the costs of their products.
Tip: Make sure your homepage gives the visitor a brief, but descriptive glance of what it is you offer and who you help.
Eat Boutique
Once you land on the Eat Boutique website, they give you not one, not two, but three different sign-up options for their email newsletter. The reader knows exactly how often they will be receiving an email, which can help reel in people who have not signed up at all, assuming they would be getting a lot of emails a week.
Tip: Give frequency options for your email newsletter.
