Why use 360 Spins
360 spins have many benefits over and above more traditional forms of digital media. Being made up of around 36 still images they contain many more angles than just still shots alone. As the customer can interact with the 360 spins, choosing what angle to look at and even zooming in and out, it makes them superior to a video, which can only play and stop.
The 4 main advantages of 360 spins are:
- Conversion Rate: The use of 360 spins on a website can increase conversion rates. This is due to the ability to give the customer something to interact with, this, in turn, makes them stay on your website longer and builds more trust. The longer a customer stays on your website the higher the probability of them converting into a customer.
- Fewer Returns: As 360 spins provide the customer with much more information about each product they are less likely to purchase the incorrect item saving your company time and money dealing with returns.
- Stand out from the crowd: If your competitors aren't already offering 360 spins then this is a great way to stand out and look more professional.
- More secure: Unlike still images which can easily be copied, 360 spins are much harder to copy and still making them more secure
We can easily add hotspots and thumbnails to your 360 spins
Hotspots: A hotspot is a small dot sometimes red, but can be customized (you can even use a Logo!) This dot is placed on the spin and can be clicked ( touched ) to find out more information about the product, for example, the hotspot can display text about the product, a close-up image, or even a URL link to a website page.
Thumbnails: Thumbnails are small images that can be displayed at the top bottom or even at the sides of the 360 spin, these images are often close-up images of the product or images of the product from a different angle.
