Preparation

Getting your website ready for CES

A simple plan around the dates of CES. Adjust it to your team and your products.

  1. Step 1

    8 weeks before

    Open your website on a phone as a visitor would and note what is slow or unclear. List what you will show at CES in the Consumer Electronics & Gaming sector and check that each item has its own page.

  2. Step 2

    4 weeks before

    Describe each offer in plain words: who it is for, what problem it solves and how a visitor gets in touch. Add the languages your visitors read and a QR code that leads to a page made for CES.

  3. Step 3

    Fair week

    Test your contact form and the e-mail it sends on a phone. Capture every contact at the stand with one method and note what each visitor asked for.

  4. Step 4

    2 weeks after

    Reply to every contact from CES within days. Update your pages with the questions you heard most at the stand.

For consumer electronics exhibitors

What a consumer electronics website should show

Retail buyers and distributors look for clear specifications, compatibility details and warranty terms they can check quickly, on any device, in their own language, before and after the fair.

Detailed product pages

Give every product its own page with specifications, compatibility notes and a downloadable datasheet, so retail buyers can check your range before they walk up to your stand.

Fast mobile loading

Test your site on a mid-range phone over mobile data. Visitors scanning your gaming accessories or smart-home devices at the stand will leave if product pages load slowly.

Distributor-ready languages

Offer your product pages and warranty terms in the languages of your target distributors, such as German, French or Spanish, so importers can compare your range with others.

Fair-specific QR page

Print a QR code on your stand that opens a page made for the fair, with demo videos, a price list request form and your correct sales contact details.
