Early days yet but first sales start rolling in!

I finally took the plunge with my switch over to BigCommerce and now my site has seen its first sales!


Visitor numbers are up but still at a low level. However,  to have sales is encouraging and once I switch my advertising to point at the new site I am hoping things will be even better in a few weeks.

I finally managed to get my products listed on the Google Shopping site so that they show up in searches, with many of them appearing on the first page! All I need to do now is work out a keyword strategy for AdWords and build some reciprocal links.

I'll keep you posted on how it goes in future posts.
