[ecommerce + usability]

Having a lot of traffic doesn't mean you have a lot of sales. Obviously, not every visitor is going to buy something. But a percentage of them do. This percentage is called a conversion rate. If your business involves ecommerce (or if you're considering it) this is something you're thinking about.

now maximize it.
Assuming that they didn't find the site by accident, they're at least somewhat interested in the product. If they buy or not depends on many things. Mostly it comes down to two types of issues. The first is the content: Is the presentation appealing? Are all of my questions answered?

Ecommerce is like baseball...
The team that wins is the team that
makes the fewest mistakes.
