You have to be very keen if you have a shopping sites or e commerce business. Be sure that the purchased and payment process is most be easy and understandable. The more difficult the process, people will tend to cancel it and look for another. 🙂

Hey Nick, there are some great tips in their. Personally, as SEO/SEM is rapidly evolving, I think your last tip relating to social media was the best advice many ecommerce sites can follow. I’ve read Crush It! by Gary Vaynerchuk and this book gives an awesome insight into the power of social media (P.S. that’s not a plug for the book – I simply thought it was an amazing read 🙂 ).

Great post Nick, as my partner and I are about to venture on a niche market area ourselves. I have checked out competitors just by Googling the product as well as seeing if/what Amazon offers from sellers in this space. I should probably check out eBay, Google Stores, etc. To be honest, I only looked at pricing to see if we have a margin but from your post, looks like I overlooked some other key areas I better pay attention to!

I’m still trying to figure out which shopping cart to go with but narrowed down to a couple….I will check out your site on carts!
