[Poll] What is one most important factor to trigger a purchase decision assuming you need the product. Price, service, reputation, brand or any other factor.

From an SEO perspective, the most crucial factor in triggering a purchase decision is often perceived value.

This perception is heavily influenced by online reviews, which provide social proof and insights into the real-world experiences of others.

Quality and then Price. :) I’d rather buy a product of excellent quality but more expensive than cheap ones that are unreliable.
