While doing a little light Sunday morning reading I came across this unbelievable article on improving your conversion rate.
The article itself is titled “101 Easy Ways to use Google Website Optimizer”. Don’t let the title fool you though. The lessons taught in this article can be applied by anyone doing business online. Not just those who use Google Website Optimizer.

2. 99% of the ballyhoo surrounding the big grand opening has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE QUALITY OR VALUE of the product.

How ethical is it to not give digital bonuses to your customers who paid the same price.
Which brings me to…
