Ecommerce websites are popping up all around us. Are all of them successful? No. Most fail. But why? One of the most common reasons is that they do not put the needs of the user before the ideas of the business.

2. The Sill

With appealing colors, this website gives off a very clean, simple, and cheerful feeling. The Sill believes that plants make people happy, and so does their online store. The entire site is crisp and refreshing and has a beautiful nature vibe.
The header menu is very clever and it's one of my favourite features on this list. The gap between ‘The' and ‘Sill' is done so to mirror the name of the company. As you scroll down to look at the products the words come together and the other options move to the right.
Key takeaway: Interactive mega menu
Built using: Shopify
3. Couple

In the bottom right-hand corner of Couple‘s homepage is a chat box. This gives visitors instant access to Couple's support team.

Key takeaway: Zoom on hover
Built using: Amplience
6. The Owl

The reason Owl is on the list is their strange take on ecommerce website design. The homepage is not what most online stores look like. Thatโs a not a bad thing as it makes their web design creative. Creativity helps stores stand out. Doing something a little different can help your bottom line a lot.
Their homepage is very minimalist and they have a video which plays automatically to highlight their products. Again it's very edgy and almost enchanting. Due to their minimalist design, the video won't affect load speeds for users to the website.
Key takeaway: Automatic playing video on your homepage
7. Baron Fig

This ecommerce website design is full of great design elements. The first is the minimalistic and sharp photography. The second is the fun graphics and catchy phrases. The color scheme correlates and compliments the product. If youโre looking for a site that uses a variety of elements to create one cohesive feel then Baron Fig is perfect for you.
Slightly below the fold of the homepage, Baron Fig display a rolling display of snippets from press articles from companies such as GQ, Buzzfeed and New York which instantly grab your attention.

I love their motto, and man do they make it known. The words' ‘we canned a feeling' are plastered all over the top of their homepage.
Then next to the motto, is a can floating beside moving clouds, which sort of gives off a heavenly vibe.
This makes sense. People want to feel good. It really is as simple as that- and Recess has capitalized on this with their web design and copywriting.
Key takeaway: Think about what your customers want to feel, and appeal to that via your web design.
9. Packwire
Scrolling through the Packwire homepage is an exciting adventure where you donโt know what is going to pop up next. The design features are completely different than any other site. There are fun pop-ups and sliders covering the whole website. Packwire have built a sexy website for a very unsexy business.
Due to their complex design and animations, the page load speeds can be quite long. However, Packwire has used a box unpacking and packing itself to indicate that the page is loading. It's unique to the business and makes the waiting time far less laborious.
Key takeaway: Unique loading icon
10. Caroline Z Hurley
The large stunning photo on the Caroline Z Hurley homepage sets the feeling for how the rest of the website design will be. The fun and simple photography sell the product without even trying. Customers are not bombarded by product options.
The lady in the picture is clearly admiring the product so much that she doesn't even realise the camera is there. It really detaches from the cheesy and standard stock images of somebody smiling at the product.
Key takeaway: Out of the box photography
Built using: Shopify
11. Beatific
Beatific uses a wide variety of digital content such as photos, animations, and illustrations to successfully convey its message. The color scheme and fonts create a young and playful brand that is evident throughout the entire site.

Key takeaway: Connect Facebook Messenger
Built using: Shopify
12. Blume

As you scroll through Blume‘s homepage, you'll see they breakdown exactly how to use and order a subscription box- making it super simple for customers to understand the process.
In Blume's case, all you need to do is choose what you want, pick how often you wish to receive one of your personalized boxes, then cancel it anytime you want- how straightforward is that?!
Key takeaway: Keep your copy simple to reach out to customers who aren't familiar with your brand.
Ecommerce website built using: Shopify
13. Wolf Gang
The thing that makes the Wolf Gang website unique is the dark and heavy design. Many sites adopt a more bright design with vibrant colors, but Wolf Gang is the complete opposite. The typography is bold and in your face. The site grabs your attention right away.
What Wolf Gang also do well is that they take the fatigue out of scrolling. With one flick of the ball in your mouse and you auotmatically move to the next section, very clever.
Key takeaway: Section scrolling
14. MSMG
MSMG is the classic example of using vibrant colors and photos.
What struck me most about the MSMG was that the mouse cursor turned to an M. Yes, you maybe thinking at this point that is very 1990's! Yes it is, but people love nostalgia and a throwback. Is it time to embrace that for your website?
Key takeaway: Embracing retro
15. A.N.Other
A.N. Other uses a sticky button that keeps the company name front and center no matter where you go on the site. The overall design is classy yet unforgettable. It offers a grid-like design which easily draws the eye from one thing to the next.
Their website is split directly down the middle. A.N. Other simply rotate the text and images to keep it interesting, this makes the website so much easier to look at, rather than some website that have no symmetry or order.
Key takeaway: Even sections make for a cleaner design
Built using: WooCommerce
16. Two Chimps Coffee
The brand's uniqueness shines through as Two Chimps number one priority. The hamburger menu has a rare design and pops up. The entire site is full of distinct features.
When you try to the leave the website you are met with a “Please Don't Go” pop up with a call to action (CTA) that says “Gimme Some”, it's very playful and beats the very unoriginal “add to basket”.
Key takeaway: Clever CTA's
Built using: WooCommerce

Key takeaway: Simplify how people find your products
18. Package Free Shop

One of the best things about the Package Free Shop is its plastic-free packaging. This is one of their USP's, and they make this well known in both their header (where they also offer free shipping for orders totally $25 or more) and further down their homepage.
Key takeaway: If you're able to offer free shipping, do so- customers love this! A boost in conversions is almost inevitable.
Ecommerce website built using: Shopify

Manolo Blahnik has a career spanning over 40 years, so their website needs to reflect how prestigious they are.
When you scroll down the page, it resembles a catwalk which is very in keeping with their brand. Manolo has created a shadow effect behind their products as well, which is quite unique in this list.
Key takeaway: Use a shadow effect on your images to add impact
20. Native Union
The sliding banner makes the website interactive for the user and easy to navigate to the different pages. The use of images throughout the site is more engaging than text alone and better represents the products. Photos of the products are front and center leaving the user with fewer questions.
When you use the Native Union header menu the sub producuts are highlighted without you having to click them. An additional benefit is that icons are used for users to easily identify what they will be clicking on.
Key takeaway: Use icons to display products
Built using: BigCommerce

Key takeaway: Highlight your blog where you can be less salesy, people will appreciate it.
Built using: Shopify

Myro's product isn't much to look at, it's essentially a recyclable refill pod, so creating a lifestyle around their product and bringing it to their life in their website design is vital.
To display the simplicity of their product, Myro use an interactive gif below the fold of the homepage which really etices you and highlights the use and effectiveness of the product in a matter of seconds.
Key takeaway: Use interactive gifs to show your product in action
Built using: Shopify
23. Kaffefamiljen
Infographics are a fun, yet effective way to describe a product and business. It breaks it down for the customer and makes it enjoyable to look at. Kaffefamiljen is the perfect example of properly using infographics to draw in the user.
What they also do well is use language such as ‘your coffee', ‘welcome to the family' and ‘what best suits you'. You really feel a part of the brand when a company does this.
Key takeaway: Use inclusive language in your website design
24. Michael Petrov – Emersion
Emersion is a simple yet stunning design. It features seven different scrolling pages. Each page is similar with a small amount of text and an illustration. The very few design elements that are used create major impact.

Key takeaway: Uses pagination to sort fatigue

Key takeaway: Explain your business and get customers to buy in to you
Built using: Shopify
26. Via Copenhagen:
The landing page of Via Copenhagen does not continuously scroll, but instead completely changes pages as you scroll. It is bold and choppy, making each product jump off the screen. The neutral color palette is stunning.
Key takeaway: Replace whole pages with a scroll
27. Save Khaki
Save Khaki's design is very minimalist, with a strong emphasis on imagery which stretches the width of the page.
You may read articles and reports on why it's not the best idea to use a carousel on your homepage. It's been reported that it promotes mixed messaging and it gives the impression that the store don't know what they want to showcase.
However, done right and it can give your website a great aesthetic. Save Khaki don't push different messages they use it to highlight their products in every day use, while the Men's Shop and Women's Shop options stay static so people can decide to shop whenever they choose.
Key takeaway: Use carousels to promote your different products
Built using: Shopify
28. Buffy Comforters
The background photo makes the user want to jump right on that couch and snuggle under the Buffy comforter. Buffy claims they are the fluffiest, softest, and lightest comforter ever and the website makes it more than believable. It sells the product effortlessly.
Additionally as soon as you begin scrolling, Buffy offers a discount code as a pop-up. This is an obvious technique but is very effective.
Key takeaway: Pop-up with discount offer
Built using: Shopify
29. 450 GSM
450 GSM does not have a fancy website. It is practical and ideal for the business being presented. 450 GSM goes to show you donโt need to go overboard to have a good looking website. Itโs okay to be simple and easy to navigate.
If you find that your industry isn't typically then the most interesting then don't try and make something it isn't.
Key takeaway: Less is more
30. Only/Once
The layout of the vintage artefacts is great. The different artefacts are aligned in a neat grid making browsing easy. The use of whitespace around each product square makes the site feel clean and organized. The photos convey the charm, character, and story of each piece.
Again this is a great case of how nostalgic products can perform well. People love the past and Only/Once's simple design lets the products do all the talking.
Key takeaway: Bring retro up to date is very popular
31. Aesop
The ecommerce website design of Aesop focuses on the beauty and naturalness of their skincare line. Itโs made up of close up photos of the product and its packaging. This ecommerce website is a good example of how to photograph beauty and skincare products in a sophisticated way.
This is sophistication is backed by how much breathing room they give the products. Most companies focus on a massive logo and giant menu. Let's face it, customers don't care about your logo and they will look for your menu, it shouldn't dominate the page.
Key takeaway: Big menus and logos aren't important
32. MAKR
The landing page is specific to MAKR yet interactive to the user. It features rows of different leather products that change color as the user hovers over them. This not only showcases the different products and colors but sparks interest.
Also it shows how different products will look teamed up with different clothing. People may like a product but how will it fit with what they are wearing? It's worth bearing in mind.
Key takeaway: Showcase your accessory items with different clothing
Built using: Craft Commerce
33. 42/54
42/54 uses vibrant colors to their advantage. This ecommerce website does not shy away from flaunting bold background colors. But notice that their overall ecommerce website design is pretty light in general. The bright colors are small accents.
Similar to previous websites mentioned here, 42/54 show that a header menu isn't initally important. The menu only comes in to place when you scroll down, which gives extra emphasis to the Fall/Winter collection they are promoting and increases the click through rate.
Key takeaway: Bring in a main menu after highlighting your products
Built using: Shopify
34. Simply Chocolate
The design of this Denmark based chocolate company ecommerce store gives enough space to let each of their products shine individually. When you scroll down the page, a new chocolate bar floats up in the middle of the page, with each chocolate bar taking an individual color theme, and a fun name.
The website design of this ecommerce store is one that canโt be compared to many others in this list. The menu is actually sideways for a start. What they do well is that the background images help to tell you more about the product. Rather than using words, Simply Chococlate just use images of strawberries and nuts.
Key takeaway: Use your background imagery to describe your products
Built using: WooCommerce
35. Dimension Volumes
The most notable thing about the Dimension Volumes ecommerce website is the bold typography. The large font grabs your attention and creates dimensions to the entire site. The font is just a little bit thicker than you usually see online. It makes the website design stand out even further.
Key takeaway: Don't be afraid to be BOLD with your text
36. Teenage Engineering
Teenage Engineering has one of the best-designed ecommerce websites in engineering. It looks exactly how you would expect an engineering site to look, but also has a young, modern feel to it. The black background and white font make it stand out.
They also are repeatedly using lower case lettering which is definitely a trend that more businesses are adopting to attract a younger audience, who favour it.
Key takeaway: lower case is in. ok
37. Vipp
Vipp sells minimalistic household items. Their website follows suit with a minimalistic design. The products are beautifully organized, but not in a boring grid view. This site shows that itโs okay to stick to the basics sprinkled with a few fancy features.
What I like about Vipp is the way hey highlight their prodcut in use after you hover it. Users like the polished studio photography and it being used so give them both options.
Key takeaway: Team your studio photography with lifestyle photography
38. STAUD
Staud is another example of ecommerce website design that uses bright colors. The colors are used in photos, the product, as well as backgrounds. The text is all in white and black. The balance here is very good.
What STAUD do well is that their pop-up offer stays sticky on their webpage on the right-hand side. Most people can and will click off pop-up offers so keeping it in their vision is important.
Key takeaway: Use a sticky right-hand menu widget to advertise your welcome discount
Built using: Shopify
39. Mallika Favre
Malika Favre is an in your face website design. It completely eliminates the use of white space and uses bright colorful graphics on the entire screen. This ecommerce website design is both memorable and creative.
Another great usage of interactive imagery, Mallika have the price display when the user hovers over the product.
Key takeaway: Display prices and product names when users hover over
Built using: Big Cartel
40. Verk
Verkโs home page focuses a lot on the purpose, the engineering, and high standard of the product. They do not jump right into selling their goods. They talk about quality and pride instead of the latest sale or promotion. The entire tactic shows the customer that Verk cares about each and every one of their watches.
Verk advertise their watches as “minimalist”, so it's unsurprising that their website reflects this. They are a company who are very aware of their brand.
Key takeaway: Ensure your website mirrors you brand
Built using: Shopify
41. YIELD
YIELD organized all the product photos into a unique grid design with all the important text right on top of the photos. The homepage is beautiful with very minimal text. All the text and information is nicely hidden away in a hamburger grid on the left.
YIELD's mega menu is great in its design. You can drop down 3 levels to a product but at the same time it doesn't feel overbearing, due to the fact that the menus have been designed differently.
Key takeaway: Don't be afraid to have your mega menu go to a sub-sub-section
Built using: Shopify
42. Charlotte Stone
This is an example of a womenโs footwear ecommerce store with a very soft designer look. The main colors you will see here are light pink, yellow, and white, accompanied by soft patterns. This ecommerce website design goes well with the product that they are aiming to sell. It feels very feminine and fresh, with the font matching the rest of the websiteโs look.
What Charlotte Stone do well is that they don't force sales on you. They just want to get you to sign up for their newsletter, they do this by changing the colour of the background every few seconds on the sign up form.
Key takeaway: Draw attention to your sign up forms by changing the colour
Built using: Shopify
43. Minna May Designs
As a business that specializes in hand lettering and illustrations, you would expect to see similar techniques on the Minna May website. The site features gorgeous fonts, light colors, and dainty imagery. The design behind the company comes out in every aspect on the website.
What's different about Minna May to the other shops is that they sell their products on other platforms. However, they use their website for extra design functionality and to highlight their story.
Key takeaway: Use your website as a portal to your Etsy store
Built using: Squarespace
44. Triangl
Triangl showcases their swimwear in a unique and different way. Instead of the swimsuits being laid out in the typical grid, they are organized by threes on a slider. The price and other information are not focused. The site also uses large amounts of white space to direct the eye.
Key takeaway: White space isn't waster space
Built using: Shopify
45. Bacca
Bacca sells handmade wooden laptop stands. Their ecommerce website design is full of great design elements. The first is the fun colors and graphics you see at the bottom of their homepage. The second is the quality photos of their stands. Notice that the stands are alone without anything in the background. This helps the product stand out.
Key takeaway: Use plain backgrounds for your images
46. Umbra Shift
Itโs not uncommon for website homepages to go on forever, filled with all kinds of information and photos. Umbra Shift takes the complete opposite approach. It has a very short homepage giving it a less overwhelming feeling. This helps the customer feel more comfortable.
Umbra use space very well and their products dominate their homepage, this ensures that they will look big on any device.
Key takeaway: Use the full width of your website
Built using: BigCommerce
47. Fitzy
The photography on Fitzy is absolutely superb.
A quick scan of their website and you can see passport wallets displayed at breakfast tables, a cherry blossom style bag amongst cherry blossom trees and belts surrounded by the materials that made them.
Handmade products and the boom of etsy are massive in the ecommerce world. What Fitzy do well is they display this as their tagline and reinforce this throughout with their close-up photography.
Key takeaway: Sell handmade products? Give authenticity by displaying how you made them
Built using: Shopify
48. Read Only Memory
Read-Only Memory published books about video games, so it only makes sense to have a website with a video game-like design. Similar to the company, the site is the perfect mix of video game and book designs. It features a big block grid-like system to organize the products.
Another good use of a sticky menu here, this time on the product pages where the add-to-cart and checkout options follow you as soon as you click a product
Key takeaway: Use sticky menus on your product page to help your conversions
Built using: WooCommerce
49. Good Moods:
Good Moods is one of the most aesthetically pleasing websites. It is a perfect mixture of bold and bright, yet soft and tender. It features beautiful lifestyle photography. The color palette has a calming nature about it.

Key takeaway: Highlight your Instagram if you are big on photography
50. Aida Eats
There are so many glowing things to say about this site; however, I'll keep it brief. The tagline here is simple, bright, and oh so punchy. It tells customers straight away they're in the right place;
‘Eat well. Entertain Easily'.
So, from the get-go consumers know what Aida Eats is all about.
We also love the imagery on the homepage. They showcase some of their favorite products by having open packets with different snacks spilling out of them.
This is incredibly clever.
Not only does it look impressive, but it also shows the customer the goods Aida Eats has to offer. The customer's exposed to their products without even having to search for anything- it's genius!
Key takeaway: Give your tagline some thought. Draft something your customers will relate to, and hopefully remember. It should highlight what your brand stands for in just a few words.

Molekul makes the most of their huge video banner on their homepage. It shows their core product in action in addition to giving visitors a glimpse into the science behind their air purifiers. This works wonders for building trust and credibility with their audience.

Key takeaway: Publish social proof on your homepage to boost credibility.
52. Kaptain
If you're only selling a few select products, take a leaf out of Kaptain's book. On their homepage, they keep things incredibly simple by allowing their products to speak for themselves. All they have is a few clickable pictures on a white background.
After all, you know what they say- ‘a picture speaks a thousand words.'
Key takeaway: Declutter your homepage. Remember, less is usually more.

If your brand has one signature product, do what Get Room does and make it the first thing you feature on your homepage. They use high-quality product photos to give the shopper a better idea of what to expect when they spend their hard earned cash with them.

Creating the Perfect Ecommerce Site
While there are a lot of important lessons to take away from the list of ecommerce websites mentioned above, itโs important to remember that all sites are different. While you should definitely strive to make your online environment as user-friendly and appealing as possible, youโll also need to think carefully about a number of other things.
For instance, all websites should have ease of use baked into their core, as well as strong product descriptions, unique checkout pages, and simple solutions to help your customers spend their money with ease.
Itโs the little details that you add to your online business that really helps it to stand out.
For instance, think about:
- The audience that youโre trying to attract: Different kinds of customers expect different things from a website. Some younger audiences will expect more animations and graphics, while B2B customers expect a lot of reliable information.
- The budget that you have to work with: Small businesses are generally limited on cash. While tools like WordPress allow you to start building your website for free, youโll still need to pay for some crucial investments yourself.
- What your business model is going to look like: Some small businesses sell products through their own distinct checkout pages. Others integrate their ecommerce web design with tools like Amazon or dropshipping services. Knowing how youโre going to sell to customers will affect your ecommerce design significantly.
- How youโre going to advertise your site: Remember, people wonโt just come and find you on their own. Youโll need to think about how you can attract customers through Google with search engine optimization, you may want to try things like email marketing with your SEO too.
- How youโre going to display your products: Are you going to stick solely with product images, or do you want to offer your customers slideshows and videos that can help them to dive into your productโs potential? Adding new features is great, but youโll need to ensure you donโt slow down your website.
- How youโre going to stand out: No matter what products you might be selling, from custom t-shirts to mobile devices, you can bet that thereโs someone out there with the same product categories as you. That makes it crucial for you to find a way to separate yourself from your competition.
- How can you deliver the best customer experience? Customers today are looking for sensational experiences more than anything else. Update your store design to focus on ease of use. That includes providing a responsive design that works on any smartphone, and a smooth checkout process with plenty of payment options.
Sometimes, developing a thorough business plan will help you to drive your ecommerce web design strategy in the right direction. The more you know about your company, your customers, and even your competition, the easier it will be to ensure that you donโt lose out on valuable sales.
You might even decide that youโre going to try a new kind of business plan entirely. For instance, many new companies are beginning to experiment with dropshipping as a simple way to fulfill their orders without having to invest in warehousing strategies.
Finding Inspiration for Ecommerce Web Design
Although the examples above canโt show you exactly how to design the ultimate ecommerce website, they can provide you with some useful information on what it takes to make a site successful. Itโs up to you to figure out who your customers are and what they need from your website. But you can use the previous sites as inspiration to get you moving in the right direction.
There are piles of amazing websites all around the internet in your niche and others that can show you how amazing ecommerce websites can be, if you know how to make them properly.
Looking at todayโs most attractive ecommerce sites, you can see that itโs not just stunning web pages that drive your company forward, but everything from search engine optimization, to the ability to take multiple kinds of credit card payments.
When youโre developing your own ecommerce business site, the best thing you can do is look at the sites that already exist, and find ways to make your own solution even better. Think about what your competition is doing, and ask yourself what you can do to set yourself apart from the crowd.
That might mean adding more features to your shopping cart, like payment gateways (PayPal, Shopify Payments or Stripe), shipping rates or gift cards.
On the other hand, you might decide that you want to create a custom boutique area for online shopping, where customers can add their own names and other details to products using a print on demand service.
The average ecommerce website builder today comes with a host of fantastic ways to make a positive first impression on your audience, and keep them coming back for more. Going beyond high-quality product descriptions and photos to show your audience what makes your online business special is a great way to ensure more sales in the long term.
Just remember that youโll need the right tools to get you started, Magneto, Squarespace, WordPress, Volusion and other leading ecommerce website builders can only accomplish so much on their own. You may also need to explore plugins and add-ons to bring extra functionality into your site, or even think about working with a specialist.
