Curiosity
Psychological Theory:
When we are presented with an interesting piece of information, we want to know more!
Application idea(s) for E-commerce websites:
Curiosity is an important motivator of our behavior. It’s important for the discovery, development and improvement of ourselves and the world around us. As a webshop owner you can trigger this in several ways. You can present your visitors with interesting information, give a demo, show how the lives of others was greatly improved by your product or let people actually use (a tuned down version of) your product. The key is to tease people to give them just enough to want more!
This post is part of my Psychology of E-commerce tips series where I present you with a psychological theory and suggest how you can apply this within your e-commerce website.
