How to Reduce Shopping Cart Abandonment: 10 No-Brainers

Why is it when you compile a list of such seemingly obvious and innocuous methods to increase conversions, you suddenly realize just how many retailers don't follow these practices? The statistic: "23% of shoppers will abandon when asked to register before checking out." I've heard that a million times before, yet how many sites allow guest checkout, or even better - allows the user to register MUCH LATER in the checkout process? And persistent shopping carts are, IMO, a must-have; it's horrifying how many retailers fail to implement them. I've personally changed my mind on dozens of products because two days later when I went back to finish the sale, my cart was empty.

The most important thing is knowing. Everything will work out if you just remember to breathe. Chocolate is not for sharing. Beauty is everywhere if you just remember to look for it. Perfection is impossible but improvement can happen every single day. However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light. Make a wish. Dance when the music moves you. If it's hard to say, odds are it's what the listener most needs to hear. Wear a new colour. Do that thing that scares you. Love as often as possible.
