What makes a good about section on a ecommerce website

About sections tell the origin story briefly and point to what the company believes, with a photo or two of real people. Ecommerce homepages are merchandising surfaces: hero campaigns, product grids, social proof and a fast path to checkout. Compare these examples with about sections from every industry, or see the full homepages on the ecommerce website templates page.

What these 50 about sections have in common

On average each one carries 3.4 images or icons, 1.0 buttons and 0.6 links. 13% sit on a dark background, and 47% are taller than half their width — most are compact bands rather than full screens. Headlines range from “We design, develop, and have fun doing it.” (Reformcollective) to “Cosy home, and a healthy planet” (Koala).
