I’m sure you’ve done the same thing yourself. You go to the grocery store, get a cart or basket, fill it with items and suddenly you felt like you may be buying unnecessary things. What happens after that realization is a pretty common practice. You leave your basket or cart half full of items near the counter or just at the end of the aisle or put some things back. The same thing can and does happen on your Zen Cart: customers abandoning their carts. This problem, however, is not entirely out of your control. There are a number of ways to increase the effectiveness of your shopping cart and the proper implementation of these best practices can reduce the lost sales associated with abandonment.
Given the level of steep competition in commercial online business, you are well aware of the need to maximize the potential of your online store and other features that you might have. This includes optimizing your shopping cart by using SEO and usability techniques to meet and go beyond the current web standards, thus enabling you to get ahead of your competitors.
