TomatoCart - New Generation Open Source eCommerce

The new blog category "Coverage" will be recording reviews from the press in the e-Commerce industry.

The recent TomatoCart coverage goes to practical ecommerce, by Kerry Watson.

"Times have changed, and TomatoCart has brought about a completely new era in OSC carts. Function AND aesthetics work hand-in-hand. If you remember the first time you ever drove a great car, that incredible feeling you had behind the wheel is called 'fahrvergnügen' in German, which translates as 'the joy of driving.' That is exactly what I felt when I drove Tomatocart for the first time."

Why “bugs”? This was inspired by firebugs, which are tiny, interesting and great insects that can add some light to the darkness!

TomatoCart starts today a new blog category called “eCommerce Tactics”, to unfold both common sense and secrets for online store building and sale increase.

Sometimes online shoppers can be easily appealed to by unnoticeable yet considerate offerings or services, which we compare to lightning bugs. These bugs may well serve to lead shoppers along or push them forward till they see “The order has been made successfully.” This will give more-than-satisfactory shopping experience, increase conversions and gain sound reputation from clients. Online retailers who care store usability and sales rise can never miss these firebugs!

In this blog I collect altogether eight bugs.

1. Hints
   Having finished several steps in filling a form, it could frustrate or even be a nightmare to be told that “The username entered contained illegal characters. Please try again. ” So that you have to go back and repeat all procedures till everything goes well. No wonder that potential orders slip away.
   Hints may hold attention and thus kill the order-killer. A preferred solution to account creation may be to give hints of what kind of characters are accepted as in a username, to ask for username availability check, etc. Furthermore, a simple and easy-to-find tutorial on how to use credit card could also greatly reduce abandonment rate at checkout.
