The ecommerce industry has experienced a tremendous amount of growth in the past decade. Having jumped from 3.5% of all retail sales in 2008 to nearly 11.9% in 2018, this growth – in combination with a (still) relatively low market share – represents a huge opportunity for more innovative ecommerce companies looking to overtake their traditional counterparts.
However, in order to latch on to the ‘growth train’, these same ecommerce companies (and therefore, ecommerce managers) are going to have to put their best foot forward. In other words, they’ll need to be sure that they are providing a first-rate online customer experience. And the best way to do this is to start listening to the voice of the customer. After all, your customers can be your best resource in terms of understanding what you’re doing wrong (or right!) on your website or mobile app. So allow me to introduce you to online feedback…

Not long ago, a company could gain the loyalty of its clientele based on product quality and little else. But with time, the difference between what a company offers and what its competitors provide has become negligible. Today, companies are increasingly seeking for alternative ways to win their customers. In ecommerce business, one such way is by providing impeccable user experience (UX). The article describes the ways artificial intelligence can enhance user experience.

Magento is a well-known ecommerce platform, recently acquired by Adobe. It offers two distinct platforms: Magento Open Source and Magento Commerce (or Magento 2). Supported by global network of nearly 1,150 solution and technology partners, Magento has a library of almost 5,000 extensions, created by other developers that ‘extend’ the functionality of the platform. These extensions range anywhere from Accounting & Finance to Customer Support and Reporting & Analytics to Shipping & Fulfillment and much more. There are also several notable user feedback extensions that are ideal for getting your customer feedback programme up and running.

Marketers tasked with driving online commerce are facing obstacles such as intense price competition, skyrocketing customer expectations, and a disloyal customer base.
With struggle, however, comes progress and so ecommerce marketers are, in some ways, forging a path for other marketers who may very well end up in their position in the future.
But what are ecommerce marketers doing differently from everyone else now? And how can other marketers learn from them, before experiencing similar difficulties?

Let’s get straight to the point. – The number one priority of any Ecommerce website is to generate sales. And the biggest hurdle in achieving that is the shopping cart abandonment rate.
Shopping cart abandonment simply means visitors leaving your online store without making any purchase. And right now, 69.89 percent of online shoppers abandon their shopping carts, according to Baymard Institute’s calculations from 34 studies on e-commerce cart abandonment.
While of course there is nothing much you can do about visitors leaving your website for the reasons out of your control – reasons like not interested in your products or not ready to buy yet, but what about the visitors who are ready to buy? – why are they leaving?

We began researching ecommerce websites back in the year 2000, during the dot-com bubble. Since then, we have continued to research ecommerce usability and the customer experience.
For the fourth edition of our Ecommerce User Experience report series, a team of 7 NN/g researchers conducted a large-scale, lab-based usability study including 63 defined test activities across 49 unique business-to-consumer (B2C) ecommerce websites. A total of 16 users participated, and each was given a subset of the 63 test tasks. In addition to this large, lab-based study, researchers also conducted many smaller, more targeted research studies in order to update and evolve each of the 11 topical ecommerce reports included in the Ecommerce User Experience report series.

I see it time and time again. Companies, particularly startups, throwing money into paid acquisition channels and not getting a strong ROI, or devoting weeks to the latest spammy growth hacks which get them a customer or two for a month or so.
The problem in almost every case is that the company does not understand how to optimize the entire user experience.
They don’t understand who their target audience is, they don’t truly understand why someone would use their product or service, and they don’t understand how to keep them using it.

When it comes to the IT industry, today several products are there in the marketplace for the buyers from this industry. With millions of products, some of which even have almost similar functions, it is quite a challenge for a business to stand out amidst stiff competition. When it comes to selling software products or web-based applications, one thing that can make an application unique and that is a seamless user interface or UI Design, in short. User interface design is an approach to provide more interactivity, user-friendliness, and satisfaction to the end users. Good UI and UX design have a high impact on business revenue generation and conversion rate.
