Why The Toggi Website Is A Good Example Of A Good Retail Business Site

By Essie Osborn


A lot of retailers try to succeed in the virtual world by making great online websites and stores. A lot also fail due to clunky loading times and also confusing layouts that are too much to absorb in one go. Toggi, on the other hand has an interesting website that does not necessarily have all the bells and whistles, but it does get the job done.

The website of this retailer gains its loading speed from the fact of its simple layout. Even dial up connections will not have a problem loading up the page in full. Faster connections of course starting from 1 mbps sees the page load almost instantly and quite smoothly. This of course is a boon for the store especially when it comes to impatient internet surfers and shoppers.

The simplicity of the layout most likely enhances the speed by which it loads. The site opens up with a few graphics on highlighted offers with all the sub topics and products on the left side of the screen. One can select fashion items for men, women and children amongst others on the tabbed organizer on the left side.

On the left side of the page is another tab called technical guide, roughly located to separate outdoor apparel on the top from the equestrian riding gears on the bottom. It is an interesting guide in that it shows the material qualities of the different products and what each of these does for the product. This is quite a novel first for an apparel store, by providing more information to customers so that they can make an informed choice.

Further clicking on in any tab also opens up a further sub menu that further gives a collection for men women and others such as equestrian use. An accessories section is also quite interesting in that it shows a collection for bags, scarves and even socks that the buyer might be interested in.

Furthermore the site also contains links to social network sites on the left side also. One can connect to the store Facebook, Twitter or even Instagram pages and further check on their product offerings. A handy tab regarding product news is also located here.

Another interesting and novel move by the company is to provide a product registration for products bought from their stores. This in a way keeps track of loyal customers and also helps them make a database for future promotions and sales and deals. Very few if any company does this for their sites as an aftersales service.

Thus the site gives designers or would be webmasters the key ingredients in what to look for in a website. Speed, simplicity and conciseness in providing and gathering information are handled well and in a straightforward manner. It is a fine example to use if one is teaching what the main components of a successful webpage and online business are.
