Ecommerce Usability and Best Practice for Online Retailers Training April 22, 2009

Usability for Ecommerce sites is one of the largest contributors to customer conversion and retention rates. Can you afford not to be following best practice?
The course objective is to expose and explain a wide range of vital best practice techniques taken from SME and blue chip retailers which you can implement into your organisations’ own Ecommerce platform in order to drive conversion rate improvement.
Focusing on three key stages of the buying journey, Product Page, Shopping Basket and the Checkout Process, this training course will provide you with a wealth of knowledge and industry-leading insights that can be utilised to make iterative usability improvements to your Ecommerce platform.
By applying best practice usability principles throughout the customer journey, your organisation can increase the amount of visitors who convert from browsing to shopping. In turn, increasing customer conversions will lead to increased returning visitors and average lifetime order value, which subsequently can reduce your customer acquisition costs.
