Where the description sits on a product page

On Tower 28’s page the two-sentence description sits right under the title and reviews, above the size and Add button, so every shopper reads it on the way to buying. Ingredients and how-to-use details wait in dropdowns below.

What is a product description?

A product description is the text on a product page that tells a shopper what the product is, what it does for them and the details they need before they buy. Tower 28's SOS Rescue Spray page does it in two sentences under the title: "Got angry skin? Not on our watch." then the ingredient, hypochlorous acid, and what it does.

Why it matters

Shoppers can't touch, smell or try on what they see online, so the description does the job a store clerk would: it answers the questions they'd ask. A line that leads with the benefit, such as Stanley's "keeps drinks cold for 11 hours", tells them more than a list of materials.

Product pages

Put your description on a product page that sells

Replo builds the product page from your photos, price and description, with checkout built in, on your own domain or your Shopify store.

Formula

Description = the benefit first + the features that prove it + the detail that settles a doubt

The benefit is what the shopper gets: softer skin, a drink still cold at 5 p.m. The features are what makes it true: the ingredient, the fabric, the insulation. The detail is the answer to the last question before buying: the size, the fit, the weight, how to wash it.

Three description structures that work

Short
Benefit + key feature, in one or two sentences
Under the product title, for products a photo mostly sells: "A cream tint that melts into skin for lit-from-within color that stays flush all day." (MERIT).
Bullets
One feature per line, each with what it does
Phone screens and detail dropdowns, for products with several parts or specs: Rothy's labels each part of the shoe, then says what it does for your feet.
Story
The moment of use + benefit + proof
Hero products and gifts, where picturing it sells it: "Step out of the shower and into the pure luxury of long-staple Turkish cotton." (Coyuchi).

How to write a product description

  • Know who's buying. Write for one shopper: "weekend surfers" or "sensitive skin" changes which feature goes first.
  • Lead with the benefit. Say what the shopper gets before how it's made. Tower 28 opens on the problem, angry skin, not on the ingredient.
  • Back each benefit with a feature. "Soft" is a claim; "organic cotton terry" is the reason it's true. Numbers help most: OOFOS says its foam absorbs 37% more impact.
  • Use words for what the photo can't show. Texture, scent, taste, weight. Nécessaire's "honey-like gel" and Ghia's "tangity-tang and a dry finish" do it.
  • Answer the last doubt. Size and fit for clothing, skin type for skincare, "fits in your cupholder" for a 40 oz tumbler.
  • Make it easy to scan. Most shoppers read the first line and skim the rest. Put the short version under the title and the details in bullets or dropdowns.
  • Write your own. Copying a supplier's or another store's description gives a shopper no reason to pick yours, and Google tends to show only one page when several carry the same text.

A worked example: a crew neck sweatshirt

A surf apparel store sells The Harbor Crew, a terry sweatshirt. In the generator: name The Harbor Crew, category Clothing and shoes, tone Plain, audience weekend surfers, and four features, three with a benefit after the dash.

  • Short: "Soft as a beach towel from the first wear, thanks to organic cotton terry. The Harbor Crew is made for weekend surfers, with brushed interior, recycled polyester blend and relaxed fit."
  • Bullets: each feature on its own line with its benefit, plus a size and fit line to fill in with the model's height and size.
  • Story: opens on when you'd wear it, then gives each benefit with the feature behind it.

Three versions from the same four lines: the short one goes under the title, the bullets in a Details dropdown, and the story on the homepage or in a launch email. The relaxed fit line has no benefit yet, so the bullets flag it to fill in.

What makes a good product description?

It answers a shopper's questions in the order they ask them: what is it, what does it do for me, will it work for me. Of the 14 descriptions above, most lead with the benefit or the feel, and the best ones add a number or a detail that settles a doubt: 11 hours cold, 2.8 g per earring, room for hiking boots.

Length depends on the product. MERIT sells a tint in 15 words because the photos and shade swatches do the rest. Jenni Kayne spends more words on a cashmere sweater because the buyer wants to know the grade and weight before paying for it.

Questions about product descriptions

  • Start with the benefit the shopper gets, back it with the feature that makes it true, then add the detail that settles their last doubt, such as size or ingredients. "Got angry skin? Not on our watch." (Tower 28) leads with the problem and names the ingredient in the next sentence.

  • Long enough to answer the shopper's questions, often one or two sentences under the title and details in bullets or dropdowns below. MERIT's Flush Balm description is 15 words; Jenni Kayne's cashmere sweater runs longer because the buyer checks the grade and weight.

  • Stanley's 40 oz tumbler: "Double-wall vacuum insulation keeps drinks cold for 11 hours, iced for 2 days", and "it fits comfortably in your car's cupholder." It turns a claim into numbers and answers the question every buyer of a big tumbler has. See all 14 examples above.

  • No. It fills fixed structures, each modeled on a real brand's description, with the name, features and audience you type, and it runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, and it never adds a claim you didn't make.

  • Yes. Give it the same inputs this tool asks for: the product, 3 to 5 features with what each does for the buyer, who it's for and the tone. Then check every claim against the product, because a model can add a feature or a number the product doesn't have.

  • Write your own. When many stores carry the same supplier text, a shopper has no reason to pick yours, and Google tends to show only one of the pages that share it.

  • Near the top, beside or under the title and price, where every shopper passes it on the way to Add to cart. Tower 28 puts two sentences there and moves ingredients and how-to-use into dropdowns. See where shoppers tap on a phone in our product page examples.
