What are some good Shoe websites to model my after?

[mjnoles1]

I am about to open a shoe store in North Carolina and would also like to have a website. What are some good online shoe stores that I should model my own website after? I know of Zappos but I would be an idependent shoe store so that would be too big of a site.

Zappos, Amazon, Endless, Shoebuy, Shoemall, Whatapair, Funkypair, Shoefly - there are many with good set-ups.

Shoefly.com is an independent seller like you & has a nice site with attached blog & weekly shoe deals.

Features that I love?
1. Easy keyword searches.
2. Size Searches
3. Color/style searches
4. Customer reviews
5. Free shipping & returns, if possible
6. Detail Zoom or multi-view features
7. A generous wish list, 20 items is way too small.

galligator has provided some really important points, review them carefully!

Only one suggestion, try making your website search engine friendly so that your traffic circle expands.

Thank you

I buy shoes at where I work, Jbandme.com. they have bcbg, jeffery campbell, me too, and nicole. they also have lacostes for you sportier people.
My favorites though are the jeffery campbell "big" boots.

I just opened my shoe website and wanted to make it more to represent the small unique shop like my actual store. i still have to add more brands and do some things to it but i'd love to discuss with anyone. good luck

I believe Zappos has the best size and color selection. Also, the customer service is legendary. They are rated along side the best of even Fortune 500 companies for that side of it.
