You can use directional cues, such as an image of a person whose gaze is directed at your CTA button. Aptrinsic could have improved the design of their homepage using this technique to make it more conversion-friendly.

Aptrinsic would do well to swap the image to the other side of the copy and CTA button, since users naturally look from left to right. The man’s gaze would then be looking toward the button, encouraging users to click.  

Eye gaze and line emphasis are just two types of directional cues that create a path for the user to follow.  

4. Encourage buyers to rate your products

Also, asking for the reviews will make your current customers feel valued and part of your business. Posting new reviews is a great way to keep your site look fresh, and giving a boost to your reputation. (source: www.amazon.com)
