Advancing eCommerce

If you use 800Cart and have, say, 150 products, then more than 50,000 links back to your site is not going to be a problem.  And it’s all automatic – it does not take days or weeks of strategizing and labor.  (we did all that for you years ago – you just need to hook in to our success).

Certainly, it’s going going to advance you like 1 link from 50,000 separate web sites, but results speak volumes.  Several new 800Cart customers took #1, #2, #3 in just a few days (like 8)… others have dominated with 5-6 links in the top 10 for months (try “gourmet mushroom“).  It’s all done ‘legally’ in the fashion that Google asks you to do it.

‘SEO & Suggestive Sell’ (main menu) must be turned on in your 800Cart COntrol Panel to put this to work for you!  By the end of your 30 Day Free Trial at 800Cart, you can be dominating the search engines.

Is it as good as having 1 link from each of 50,000 different sites? Certainly not. But most webmasters would kill for 50,000 links from 4 sites as described in the video. But it’s included in any $9.90/month shopping cart from 800Cart. And it works well enough to get most merchants 3-7 links in the top 10 in most search engines.

That’s good enough for most merchants!

Building an Ecommerce Site with SEO in Mind

One thing she does not mention is how an off-site shopping cart like 800Cart can legitimately generate 10’s of thousands of honest backlinks to the primary site.

And while her article was not intended to address security, an PCI off-site cart will address security issues that you cannot reasonably address (at least for reasonable cost) with a hosted or dedicated server ecommerce site.

Some tips on a good eCommerce shopping experience.  You might be able to learn from Tom’s Shoes, the company you probably saw featured in an AT&T ad.

It’s not exactly ‘brand new’ news, but many of our customers do not know it yet: If you have a Paypal account in good standing, you can apply to receive a Paypal-branded debit/ATM card that draws against your Paypal balance. It’s a wonderful convenience to use your Paypal card to pay small regular bills that are usually paid electronically such as web hosting bills, etc.

When you consider that they allow you now to compute (and pay) postage or UPS shipping and arrange UPS pickup right in your Paypal control panel, then this solution becomes well worth another look for some merchants.

800Cart just made significant improvements to the 800Cart Paypal functions which adds tremendously to your power as a Paypal merchant, gaining you lower processing fees and more leverage in charge disputes when they occur.

800Cart will soon release changes and improvements to the Paypal function of your cart.

Once the changes are released shoppers will find it easier and less confusing to check out and pay.

Paypal, not 800Cart, will send you the email on such orders, and your order will appear in your Paypal Control Panel, not 800Cart’s.

This arrangement allows you to take advantage of available savings at Paypal and helps qualify you (if you otherwise qualify) for Paypal’s Merchant Protection Program — and can actually reduce the number of chargebacks you have to process.

Example: Imagine that a customer purchases a product from you, and pays with Paypal. Two months later, they see the charge on their statement and can’t remember what it was for, so they call Paypal and dispute the charge. But since you have the entire order record at Paypal, the Paypal rep can tell your customer exactly what they purchased and where it was shipped.

In addition, if you ‘purchase your postage’ for these orders in your Paypal Control Panel, the Paypal rep can tell the customer how it was shipperd, the tracking number, the date of delivery and who signed.

Because it’s all part of the Paypal records that we conveyed for 800Cart to Paypal for you!

Needless to say, after such a conversation, it’s very unlikey that your customer will continue to insist on disputing the charge.
