How many mobile phones have you compared online before actually making the purchase? Or even, compared car models to see which has the best features and fits your pocket the best? Plenty of times, right.
With everyone in a great hurry nowadays and over that, the itch to find the best deals on a purchase, people are flocking to product comparison websites.

What’s in it for you, as a retailer?
As an online retailer, you need to make sure that you are always discoverable and visible when your customer is looking for you. Be it on search engines, on marketplaces or elsewhere.
We already wrote about how you can increase your visibility on search engines and a list of online marketplaces you can sell on.
And today we are listing for you product comparison websites in India, where you can upload and list your products for free. And give shoppers another chance to know about your brand and your products!
How does a product comparison website function?
These websites are based on a very simple model. You register with them as a seller and you upload you products on their website. After which, all interested shoppers will be redirected to your online store to complete the purchase. And you will be charged on a Pay Per Performance basis. Important thing to note here is that, the product comparison website will not and does not act a point of sale. And that it will redirect all traffic to your online store to complete the purchase.
