Have put in everything I had in this store and it is very important that it works for me.

Requesting all experts to help me here and give your suggestions. Want to launch my site of coming 15th Apr, 2017 after making all the changes suggested here.

Website link is - https://www.networkclues.com

    Hey I hope you have launched your website and it's going good. Your website is clean and has a good UI, but I'd like to suggest a few changes however:
    * Your products are a few clicks away. Try adding a few of your most selling products in the front page above the fold.
    *Since you're dealing with a niche segment and your products are high-value, add a product recommendation widget. Some are based on AI that can intuitively suggest your customers products that they would be very willing to buy but wouldn't have come across them.
    *Implement a robust merchandising system. Even for a few product listings, it makes a big difference.
    *Your Brand links in the homepage aren't working.
    *Add more elements of trust like Fully encrypted login, Security certification Stickers, etc.
    *Add a merchandising plugin that organizes your Product listings.
    *Add a bullet list of features for all your products.
    *Add a description of what the product is used for in 'Descriptions'
    *Add a full list of Specifications in 'Additional Information'
    *Change position of Technical Specifications to Additional Information.
    *Add a Catalog section in the Menu for users to search for product by Category like Brand, Function, etc.
    *Search and Cart Icon is not aligned.
    *Home | Store | Config Assist | My Account is a better menu structure.
    Push the rest of the Menu options to your footer.
    *Add Design Assist in the Menu instead of keeping it as a submenu as there is only one option to select.
    * Use more positive content instead of, "Don't fall prey to up-sell & cross-sell methods of bottom line hungry brands and save big on your next purchase.", you could use, "We believe in end-to-end solutions, you can avail our services at no extra cost. Subscribe to:"
    *Add more pictures to your products from different angles.
    *Reduce the size of your footer.
    *(This is a personal opinion) The website seems very edgy, ask your dev to make some UI/UX optimizations to make it feel more welcoming.
