In this tutorial, we will discuss one tip which will help you to solve your question of how to boost sales in the Opencart store. So the idea is to display the Popular Products of your store. You might think that how this will help to increase revenue. Let me explain this to you.
The online store's success key is the customer. So how you are keeping your visitor to stay long on your store, how easily he can find the product he is looking for, how easy navigation of your store is? all these will help to convert your visitor into your customer.
In addition to this, if you make some extra changes in the presentation of the products then it might also help you.
