Looking for business professionals, marketing experts or online shoppers!
I've just established an online store at www.intriqate.com. I have thousands of visitors to my website over the weeks but zero sales!
What can I do to improve my website? What do you look for or what attracts you when shopping online?

You site looks good. The typical conversion rate is 1% and you need to have 1000 views to establish the formula.
As to where your readers are viewing or clicking your site, here is a great free tool that you can use==>http://www.crazyegg.com
With data collected, it can help you analyse the situation for further corrective measures.
As for internet marketing, preferably you should have a squeeze page or landing page to capture leads. Once you capture leads, you can build relationship first.
Other points to take note: Type of guarantee that you can provide if customers do not like what they ordered, special offers.
Also consider setting a blog.
An example of opt-in page or building up relationship can be seen at this blog==>http://www.atomicbloggingsecret.com
You can write about just how intricate or special each item is and link back to your site.
Study your competitors that sell online and see where your unique selling preposition is.
Oh dear, I have so much more pointers to share. I will send you an email shortly, ok?

Your website looks good. Double-check to see if your shopping cart is working. Hey, you never know, right?
Other than that, it might be your audience. 1000 people who can't afford your merchandise isn't going to do you any good, right? Have some cheap stuff, too. You'll actually make more from it, and then they might save up for the higher-end stuff. The other thing is to try and advertise to a higher-end audience.
The problem here is probably supply and demand. A good supply at a high price with little demand is going to produce few sales. Especially for people who can find similar items at a cheaper price. Seriously, my mom used to always tell me "don't buy that, I can find it cheaper." Honestly, you have some beautiful pieces. But you're going to be outdone by eBay.

You don't tell us what kind of metal your jewelry is made of, and to be perfectly honest (sorry) the medal looks like it's cheap and will end up making our ears hurt. The pictures do not do your jewelry justice!
the pieces don't have any sparkle and they are quite expensive, you might think about trying some mirrors and bright lights to catch some "bling" and glittering of the pieces. They just don't look like they are up to the quality for the price.

It's very expensive but no compelling reason why you would need to charge so much. The designs are limited but not exclusive. The materials are not rare.
The site took a long time to load, even on broadband.
You are in Singapore, so you're not subject to US laws, and people are wary of that. If they had a dispute, they would have no recourse.
