You should track traffic of your website and then analyze it properly that how visitors visit your website. Are they really visiting your sales page? How they enter on your web page. You can use various tools for that. I like the best is ritecounter.com they provide nice analysis of your visitors and larger log size. However there are lots of other like statcounter, activemeter, Google-analytics and so on. They can provide you the whole path of visitor including how your visitor coming on your website. How much time they stay over there (that means are they reading or taking interest in your product or content? etc!).These trackers can show you entry and exit pages. On base of your visitor's path you can decide changes you should do on your website.
[6] Get your own Domain name
Yeah you should not expect high CR if you are selling your sites through free sites like Geocities, freewebs, tripod, Bravenet and so on
[7] Provide Suitable payment options
Provide payment options that are feasible for your customers. if it is possible for you. Sometime payment option you provide may be not preferred by your customers so he will buy from other place.
[8] Provide competitive price
This is important because customers will visit more sites and compares prices. If he find your price is reasonable than other then he will prefer to buy. You should make surveys related to your product regularly to improve your sales.
