The Average Conversion Rate of Visitors Who Saw User Generated Content (UGC) is 161% Higher Than Those Who Didn’t

Statistic Info

Yes! User-generated content is the real deal. People trust other shopper’s experience over what retailers say about their products. In fact, you would be shocked to know that a customer spends 5.4 hours a day sifting through UGC! The lesson? You may write the fanciest product copy, but if there aren’t any reviews, the conversion rate will suffer! So, buck up and ask your customers and fans to review and rate you!
