Increase sales with the right colours! (Some colourful findings)
I was researching about the colors to use for my new website when I found some interesting findings. Do you know that colours can affect purchases? If you are targeting gender specific products, do you know what colours do they like? Well, here are 2 infographics that I found to be particularly useful. Enjoy!

Thank you for sharing!
These info-graphics are great, I believe in the effects of color.
I knew about the red/orange for appetite/movement in fast food chains, so to me, It makes total sense to apply this to our websites; as best we can! :)
Glad you like it. I was thinking of orange too but if I'm targeting females, I might not do so. Females generally don't like orange from the other study. :)
Fascinating! I've been going for soothing colors -- easy on the eyes, but now I wonder. Thanks for the great info.
Colors are so fascinating, are they not? Amazing how sneaky advertisers can be. What is your favorite color to use?
Yeah sneaky sneaky... But it also proves that colors do play a part. Ii like to use blue and green. :)
No wonder all the fast food outlets with "red" labeling make my hunger rage - in a good way :)

Yeah you are right. People tend to buy in base of the colors they like. Than ks for sharing. :)
You're welcome! Just have to find the right balance of colors to use for it to be effective I guess.
Exactly! Becuase if we don't choose the correct ones we will lost $$$. :(
