Key Settings to Configure

Number Selection

Which statistics to feature: Choose numbers that build trust and credibility

  • Customer-focused: Orders shipped, customers served, satisfaction ratings
  • Experience-based: Years in business, products sold, countries served
  • Achievement-focused: Awards won, media mentions, industry certifications
  • Pro tip: Use round numbers when possible (10,000+ vs. 9,847) - they're more impactful and easier to remember

Presentation Strategy

Making numbers impressive: Present statistics in the most compelling way

  • Scale appropriately: Use "10K+" instead of "10,000" for visual impact
  • Add context: Include descriptions that explain why the number matters
  • Stay honest: Only use real, verifiable numbers - fake statistics damage trust
  • Best practice: 3-4 key statistics work better than many smaller ones

Visual Impact

Animation and design: Make numbers attention-grabbing without being distracting

  • Counter animation: Numbers automatically count up when customers scroll to the section
  • Layout choice: Vertical layout (number above text) usually works better for impact
  • Color emphasis: Consider highlighting your most important number with custom colors

Pro Tips for Success

Best Practices

  • Use your most impressive numbers - quality over quantity
  • Make descriptions clear and benefit-focused ("Happy customers" vs "Total orders")
  • Keep the section near the top of your homepage for maximum impact
  • Update numbers regularly to keep them current and impressive
  • Use suffixes like "+" to indicate the number is growing

Common Mistakes

  • Using too many statistics that dilute the impact
  • Including numbers that aren't actually impressive or meaningful
  • Making descriptions too long or technical
  • Using exact numbers when round numbers would be more impactful
  • Forgetting to update statistics as your business grows
