Many visitors, few customers?
Less than 5 percent – that’s how many of a website’s visitors turn into real customers. At least according to global online sales statistics.
This proportion may seem surprisingly low. But keep in mind: it is a very long road that takes from visiting a website to actually purchasing a product or a service there.
Statistics show that 90-95 percent of visitors to any small or medium-sized company’s website end up making their purchase somewhere else, most likely on the competitor’s website. The obvious reasoning says they probably didn’t find what they were looking for on the website they visited first.

Ride your bike! After checking and fixing it thoroughly.
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike! That’s how you feel when summer knocks on the door and you wish you could spend all your freetime outdoor. Spending a whole day out “in the wild”, or just enjoying the long, mild evenings after work. And if you like it, you can even listen to Freddie Mercury’s famous song meanwhile.

However, it is rather far from my sense of fun when I have to stop at every second corner to check or fix something on my bicycle. Today’s bikes are rather complex machines: the brakes, the gear shifts and shifters, the tires and the bearings all comprise of small parts. Parts, which have the bad habit of not working properly after a month-long pause.
Thus, you’d better devote some time to check whether everything is working well and Continue reading
Full House: How to boost hotels’ turnover
Online shopping has become “default setting” in a lot of business areas, and probably the most widely so in the tourism sector. With the rapid expansion of online booking, businesses operating in tourism are having vast opportunities to market themselves to travelers. However, competition has become even tougher in this sector. Let me only hint at the overwhelming success of such sites as booking.com or hotels.com.
What do online shoppers need?
Hundreds or thousands of products and items – that’s what we usually find in webshops. The wide range of products is one of the most positive features of online merchandise. Beside the ease and comfort webshops offer to customers.
However, this huge product range may also become a burden for a customer who does not look for a very specific item he or she already knows. It is only if the customers are familiar with the brand, the model and the make of the product they are looking for that the online shopper succeeds in a jiffy.
Now really: how many such sure-footed and determined customers are there in the vast online world? While the majority of web surfers have some idea of what they are looking for, very often they need assistance during web shopping. Continue reading
