Being optimized for mobile isn’t just recommended. It’s essential. In fact, let’s up the ante… Start thinking of mobile as “THE internet” (as opposed to the “desktop version”).

(Also: Nearly 65% of global consumers are not willing to wait more than three seconds for a website to load.) Consumers want what they want now. If your website lags, consider making an investment in a professional tune-up. A small investment with a web developer could seriously boost your sales revenue. Adding testimonials to a website increases conversions by 34%. Ratings and reviews–even bad reviews!–can improve your brand’s image. 76% of U.S. shoppers view customer service as a true test of how much a brand values them. Great customer service is an absolute essential these days, especially for online retailers. 56% of consumers dropped out of a checkout process when they were presented with unexpected costs. Surprise costs are a breach of trust that damages your authenticity in the eyes of the customer. 96% of consumers find videos helpful when making purchase decisions online. The cost of video has come down tremendously. In fact, with just your phone, you probably have more video capabilities than you even realize. What Consumer Behaviors Drive Your Site’s eCommerce?
