Keeping Up With E-Commerce

The ever changing world of e-commerce is always exciting! No, really, it is.  There are constantly new and innovative ways to create a better shopping experience for your customers, ideas on how to increase your conversion rates, and ultimate how to make your e-commerce site better.

There are a few different ways that we have found to keep up with e-commerce.

eCom Experts Podcast

During the day I need the ‘extra’ noise, and podcasts are the answer to my prayers.  Podcasts and audiobooks seem to be a constant on my itunes, but let’s face it, free podcasts are better for the budget.  Shawna Fennell hosts a weekly podcast, eCom Experts.  The eCom Experts is fairly new, debuting in November of 2009.  She is very enjoyable to listen to and breaks down theories and ideas, so they are easy to understand.  Subscribe to eCom Experts to hear her weekly podcast.

Get Elastic Blog

This blog is a must if you are involved in any way with e-commerce.  Linda Bustos authors this awarding winning blog with the idea of helping e-commerce sites in every aspect of their business.  You can find information on marketing, technical, and the latest trends in the e-commerce world.  In addition to writing on the blog, Linda also has guest writes, to mix up the flavor.  There are daily posts, and I have found them very relevant to our everyday operations of our e-commerce sites.

Anything Avanish Kaushik

I know – it is a little broad.  Avanish is the author of Occam’s Razor Blog, the best-selling book Web Analytics: An Hour A Day, and the new book, Web Analytics 2.0.  He has also hosted analytics webinars, and is very involved with analytics education.  He has his finger on the pulse of analytics!  Following him on twitter, and keeping up with his publications can be very helpful.

These are my favorite three ways to keep up with e-commerce.  Let us know where you find your update to date e-commerce information!  I would love to expand this list.
