Shopify CRO audit: a 30-point checklist to find where you lose sales

Nico Bértolo · 2026-10-06

In short

  • A CRO audit finds where people drop off and why, before changing anything.
  • Review in this order: product page, mobile, cart and checkout, trust, then homepage.
  • Prioritise by impact and effort.

Mark each point as good, could be better or bad, and you will end up with a priority list more useful than any blind redesign.

  • Product page: clear photos, benefit, sizing, shipping and reviews.
  • Mobile: speed and thumb-friendly buttons.
  • Checkout: express payments and no surprise costs.
