Home owners are starting to think once again about major home improvement projects with predictions that spending on home renovation and maintenance will grow by 1.2% this year to hit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jchs.harvard.edu\/press-releases\/turn-growth-expected-residential-remodeling\">$477 billion<\/a> by the third quarter of 2025.&nbsp; Add home d\u00e9cor to that estimate, and the sales potential is even higher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, given continued economic uncertainty, hesitation about committing to major home investments may linger. Retailers and brands in this space should double down on strategies that help shoppers make more informed and confident shopping decisions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-ecommerce-is-critical-to-diy-and-home-improvement-success\">Why eCommerce is critical to DIY and home improvement success<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While in-store remains the most popular way to buy, online <a href=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/industries\/home-diy\/\">DIY and home improvement<\/a> sales are thriving, illustrated by the sheer scale of products on offer. For example, at Home Depot ecommerce is a key part of its strategy, with the retail giant offering more than <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate.homedepot.com\/page\/about-us\">one million products<\/a> for DIY and home improvement customers online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many home improvement retailers, technologies such as Augmented (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) help consumers better plan and execute their DIY projects, while AI-powered personalization helps them more easily find the right products for their revamps. Social media also inspires consumers in their DIY and home improvement plans as they look online for inspiration and ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So why is home eCommerce thriving in what has traditionally been a store-based vertical? Convenience, selection, product information and price are important criteria that take time for consumers to research. Much of this work happens in the comfort of the very home they want to update or remodel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online shopping for DIY and home improvement products allows shoppers to easily find inspiration, research, and shop for home d\u00e9cor products and DIY supplies from their sofa. And, still conscious of their budgets, price-savvy consumers can also use the online channel to shop around to find the best value for their home projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The drawback of eCommerce for DIY and home shoppers is that they are not able to fully assess key features like quality and size in person or speak to in-store sales assistants for advice. Tools that can bridge the gap between in-store and online are therefore essential. Home improvement and home d\u00e9cor retailers, including <a href=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/customer\/ms-testimonial\/\">M&amp;S<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/customer\/living-spaces-testimonial\/\">Living Spaces<\/a> leverage <a href=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/solutions\/social-proof-messaging\/\">Social Proof<\/a> to bring the in-store experience to online shopping, helping shoppers make better and more confident purchase decisions and significantly increasing conversion rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-trends-and-purchase-triggers-in-the-diy-and-home-improvement-ecommerce-category\">Trends and purchase triggers in the DIY and home improvement eCommerce category<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To optimize sales in the DIY, home improvement and home decor eCommerce categories, retailers and brands must stay on top of trends and shopping triggers that influence shoppers in this vertical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Home purchases and renovations<\/strong> are catalysts for increased spending in the DIY, home improvement, and decor categories. Key milestones, such as the birth of a child which may necessitate a room revamp into a nursery, for example, are also common triggers for increased spending in such categories.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Seasonality is critical.<\/strong> The demand for different types of DIY and home improvement products changes throughout the year. Spring, for example, tends to kickstart major DIY projects and garden updates as the weather gets warmer and plants bloom. Meanwhile, closer to the Holiday season, there is a high demand for smaller home decor and home appliance purchases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sustainability matters<\/strong>. Sustainability is becoming more important to a growing segment of DIY and home improvement shoppers willing to pay a premium for eco-friendly products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Social media and commerce. <\/strong>Social channels including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest are popular destinations for home eCommerce shoppers to find inspiration, ideas, and tips and get product recommendations for home design from peers and influencers. These platforms play a critical role in the DIY, home improvement and home d\u00e9cor shopping journey, from discovery to checkout and beyond.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Niche marketplaces<\/strong> are particularly popular in the home and DIY market. By leveraging niche marketplaces, retailers and brands can target a very engaged and targeted audience that is specifically looking for DIY and home improvement products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flexible financing. <\/strong>As consumers invest in renovating or redecorating their homes, many are still conscious of affordability. To support them, many retailers and brands look to flexible and alternative payment options such as \u201cbuy now, pay later\u201d to help shoppers feel more comfortable undertaking big-ticket projects with big-ticket price tags.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Visualization, augmented reality, and guided selling. <\/strong>Shopper guides and visualization tools that bring home purchases alive and show how products will look in the context of their home are key to differentiating from the competition and inspiring the customer early in the shopper journey.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-power-of-social-proof-in-diy-and-home-improvement\">The power of social proof in DIY and home improvement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether a customer eventually purchases in-store or online, the digital touch points during the shopping journey\u2019s exploration, research, evaluation, and validation phases are extremely important. Customers tend to dedicate more time to researching and buying home and DIY supplies, materials and products than other items such as clothing, since these are usually bigger-ticket items and are more challenging to change if they get it wrong. Since it\u2019s their home, consumers also tend to be more emotionally invested in such purchases. eCommerce makes it easy for shoppers to find inspiration and compare home products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the ability to inspire and compare, consumers want the confidence that they are making the right decision. With its use of social proof messaging, furniture retailer <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livingspaces.com\/\">Living Spaces<\/a> helps shoppers easily and quickly find what they are looking for, make a more confident decision and finalize the purchase.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1169\" height=\"2141\" src=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy.png\" alt=\"living spaces social proof\" class=\"wp-image-9285\" style=\"width:277px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy.png 1169w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy-164x300.png 164w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy-559x1024.png 559w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy-768x1407.png 768w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy-839x1536.png 839w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/Loveseats-Shop-Your-Favorite-Styles-Order-Online-Living-Spaces-copy-1118x2048.png 1118w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1169px) 100vw, 1169px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Social influence throughout the shopping journey is important in converting browsing shoppers to loyal customers.

Social proof is used to augment product messaging by showcasing bestsellers and trends, and sharing key product attributes to drive more traffic to websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"876\" src=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/diy-blog-2.png\" alt=\"Outdoor grill in mobile image with social proof messaging\" class=\"wp-image-7894\" srcset=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/diy-blog-2.png 720w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/diy-blog-2-247x300.png 247w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-search-engines-and-pdp-optimization-with-social-proof-messaging\">Search engines and PDP optimization with social proof messaging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, many shoppers start their product search journeys on search engines. However, in the home improvement and DIY sector, the journey often also involves marketplaces and social media platforms such as Houzz and Pinterest, where consumers look to generate ideas for their projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of the origin of their arrival to your home eCommerce website, shoppers are likely directed to a <a href=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/blog\/product-details-page-pdp-examples\/\">product detail page<\/a>. This page should be optimized with the right information to help them make more informed and confident purchase decisions. Social proof helps by bringing key product information upfront with <a href=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/solutions\/attribute-messaging\/\">attribute messaging<\/a>, as well as important data points such as how many people are purchasing the product, what\u2019s popular and trending, aggregated ratings and reviews and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-instilling-confidence-and-reinforcing-purchase-decisions-with-social-proof-messaging\">Instilling confidence and reinforcing purchase decisions with social proof messaging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since many home improvement projects involve larger purchases \u2013 both in size and cost &#8211; it is crucial to instill confidence and reinforce to customers that they are making the right choice. Retailers and brands can use social proof messaging to showcase how many other shoppers have bought the same product and highlight relevant product features, such as size. In return, shoppers make more informed buying decisions, reducing the inconvenience of having to return what might be large and bulky items and avoiding unnecessary project delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3343\" height=\"1591\" src=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof-.png\" alt=\"Living Spaces sofa with social proof\" class=\"wp-image-9277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof-.png 3343w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof--300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof--1024x487.png 1024w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof--768x366.png 768w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof--1536x731.png 1536w, https:\/\/taggstar.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/living-spaces-social-proof--2048x975.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3343px) 100vw, 3343px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-be-prepared-technology-advances-lead-to-nbsp-continued-online-diy-and-home-improvement-sales-growth\">Be prepared: Technology advances lead to &nbsp;continued online DIY and home improvement sales growth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we saw earlier, technologies such as AI, AR, VR and social proof messaging help inspire and increase confidence to buy for DIY and home improvement online shoppers.
