Conversion Report Cards by Practical eCommerce
April 11th, 2008 by Carolyn Gardner
We all know it’s hard to be totally objective when reviewing our own web sites. Sometimes the obvious just isn’t so obvious. Sure we can look at our web analytics reports for tons of information but we should never forget the power and insight of the human perspective. Well this is exactly what Practical eCommerce does via Conversion Report Cards. By grading willing web sites, the folks at Practical eCommerce reveal insight on:
- Findability
- Design and Aesthetics
- Ease of Use
- Persuasion
- Promotion
- Safety and Trust
Each section is reviewed, discussed and graded from A-F (Note: they’re not afraid to be brutally honest). An overall GPA is also assigned.
