Default Top e-Commerce Retail Site ? Again!

Amazon refuses to be dislodged as the UK's most popular online retailer. Once again the website has come out on top of the latest quarterly IMRG-Hitwise Hot Shops List of the fifty most used online retailers in the country. Following on behind are Argos in second place and Tesco.com in third, having swapped places with each other for the July rankings. Play came in fourth. Obviously the online giant has done everything right where customer satisfaction is concerned. There has to be a lesson in that somewhere.

Yes this is the sort of thing that is going on within the internet shopping business over the last 7 years, new shops will never ever get sales that are enough to keep you going in money for your food.
Sadly the only way to get sales though is by working on your word of mouth in cafes, pubs, social events and meeting you go to.
The internet adverts you post on websites like Face book, Twitter, BT Web space, Yellow pages simply wont get sales, yes you may get a couple of hits on your site from that sort of thing, but your never going to get sales.
Most people I have spoken to over the last few years have paid for an on-line shop for 2 years to try it and see how it goes, then they stop paying the hosting server the fee and quite with if they are lucky with just around £7,000 lost in the venture, maybe money they really cannot afford to sling away too.
