Save Your Work As You Go

By Adam  |  20 Aug 2015 15:00:00  |  Full article...

The other day I was working hard on a blog post. I'd been writing for a good half an hour and the post was almost done; I was actually pretty pleased with how it was shaping up. I was just getting towards the end of the post when the screen went black. I thought it was strange, but I assumed it was just a minor error with the monitor; a few moments later the screen came back on and informed me that the computer was shutting down in order to perform an update. Uh oh. Though I hoped that

Use Google for Market Research

Whether you're already running an eCommerce business or if that's something you'd like to start doing in the near future, it could well be worth your time to do a quick Google search for your product. It doesn't need to be done over Google specifically but it would just be best to use Google due to the simple fact that that is the most commonly used search engine. So what does doing this achieve? Well there is actually quite a cove of information which will be

Use Dropbox to Backup Your Files

By Adam  |  18 Aug 2015 19:00:00  |  Full article...

If you run an eCommerce website, you've doubtlessly got a lot of computer files which you would like to keep safe. Maybe you've got a spreadsheet for your finances, a document with all your passwords in case of emergency, plans for the future or whatever else. If you're running a business, you should have a lot of documents like that, but what would happen if your computer broke? You'd lose everything! So, of course, you want to find ways to keep these files safe: there're

How NOT to Run an eCommerce Website

By Adam  |  18 Aug 2015 15:00:00  |  Full article...

I'm going to start this blog post by telling a little bit of an eCommerce horror story; or, to put it less dramatically, a story of my own negative experiences when using an eCommerce website. I shan't name any names, but I was planning on attending an event and so I headed to the official website in order to book my tickets. Sadly, the website was rather unclear and I wasn't entirely sure what kind of ticket I needed to buy. I emailed their customer support address and got a short,

Linking to Other Websites in Content Marketing

By Adam  |  14 Aug 2015 19:00:00  |  Full article...

If you're doing content marketing, there are going to be times when it will be appropriate to link away from the article. Maybe you are writing about another business and you want to link to their website, maybe you have made reference to a specific fact or statistic that you'd like to provide a source for, or maybe you've written something about the subject before and you want people to see what you've said before, whatever the reason, there are lots of times when you should

Implement a Customer Survey

By Adam  |  14 Aug 2015 15:00:00  |  Full article...

Doubtlessly, you're always going to be looking for ways to enhance and improve your eCommerce website, but sometimes it can be hard to figure out what needs to be improved. How do you know what your customers would like to see from you? If you just try and guess at their needs, you might make an 'improvement' which, in the eyes of the customers, has actually made the website less appealing. But have you considered... asking them? The best source of information about what your

Is Content Marketing an Art?

By Adam  |  14 Aug 2015 08:00:00  |  Full article...

How broad is your definition of what constitutes art? Of course, pretty much everyone accepts paintings and other forms of visual art, those one are a given. Some people would call the great works of literature art, maybe even all pieces of literature. Many would also include film and television productions these days as well... but content marketing? Surely that's just, cheap, substance-less pieces of work made for no other purpose than to increase traffic to websites?   Well,

The Value of Business Cards

By Adam  |  13 Aug 2015 15:00:00  |  Full article...

If you've just started up (or are planning to soon start up) your own eCommerce business, then one thing you're doubtlessly wondering about is how you are going to get people to find out about your business. There are many things you can do to get your business noticed; two of the most prominent methods are social media marketing and content marketing, but I write about them a lot and today I want to talk about something else which you could be doing.   Of

How to Keep Old Customers

By Adam  |  12 Aug 2015 15:00:00  |  Full article...

I've written quite a few posts which talk about ways for you to reach new customers and all over the internet you'll find people promising to bring you new customers (and most of them are scammers!) so you would think that that was the most important thing when it comes to marketing. However, this is not true; making sure that your existing customers keep coming back is just as important as reaching new customers, especially for an eCommerce
