Product Page

The Product Page is where your customer decides to buy. It needs to:

  • Build trust

  • Communicate the offer clearly

  • Showcase the product visually

  • Answer all objections

  • Make the purchase action easy

In Shopify, the product page is generated using a product template and is fully customizable using Sections, Blocks, and Metafields.


Key Components of a Product Page

1. Product Media

  • Displays product images, videos, or 3D models

  • Shopify supports:

    • JPG, PNG, GIF for images

    • MP4 for videos

    • GLB or USDZ for 3D

  • You can rearrange the order in the product settings

2. Product Title & Description

  • Title: Main name of the product (from the Product admin)

  • Description: Supports rich text (bold, lists, links, even HTML)

  • Use the description to highlight benefits, not just features

3. Price & Compare-at Price

  • Displays current price and optionally a crossed-out old price

  • Shopify can also show:

    • Unit pricing (for things sold per gram, ml, etc.)

    • Automatic discounts

4. Variant Selector

  • Dropdowns, buttons, or swatches for options like size, color, material

  • You can customize this using:

    • Color swatches

    • Buttons with icons

    • Size charts (linked)

5. Quantity Selector & Add to Cart Button

  • Let users choose quantity

  • CTA button (Add to Cart or Buy Now)

  • Button design, hover effect, and placement can be edited in the theme

Customizing the Product Page in Shopify

Option 1: Shopify Editor

  • Go to Online Store > Themes > Customize

  • In the top dropdown, select Products > Default Product (or your custom template)

  • Add/Remove/Edit sections and blocks visually

Option 2: Metafields for Dynamic Content

  • Go to Settings > Custom Data > Products

  • Create metafields like:

    • video_url

    • ingredients

    • delivery_time

  • Then, in your theme editor, connect those fields to sections or blocks

Option 3: Code Customization (for developers)

  • Edit the product template in:

    bashCopyEditsections/main-product.liquid
    templates/product.json
  • Or build new Section files for tabs, image-text layouts, sticky buttons, etc.


Mobile Optimization Tips

  • Keep important info above the fold (title, price, CTA)

  • Use collapsible tabs or accordions for long content

  • Avoid large spacing between content blocks

  • Enable sticky ATC (Add to Cart) for mobile
