Automate product recommendations to consumers 24 February 2010

Automate product recommendations to consumers based on their browsing behaviour over the long term, making it much easier for businesses to offer a highly personal experience across all touch points, from initial interest to final sale

“Coremetrics Benchmark data, shows that 15 per cent of site traffic is driven by paid search and 21 per cent comes from natural search,” said Kevin Mackin, ANZ General Manager for Coremetrics. “Yet paid and natural search landing pages—often the first thing a consumer sees when researching a product—do not always yield relevant results for the consumer, and the same holds true for on-site search. Intelligent Offer 6 completely eliminates this problem by using an enterprise-class analytics solution to drive targeted, personalised results for every consumer and every search query.”

Websites that are certified as Australian! An exciting concept from entrepreneur JessicaAustralian Certified Websites Urquhart. Jessica was frequently buying goods online from sites with '.au' domains only to find her goods were being shipped from suppliers abroad or she was being overcharged on freight on checkout.
