[...] Go ahead and ask any physician how sites like WebMD have impacted their practice and they will give you an ear full about people self diagnosing. While their view may be too restrictive it does often lead to self-medication and the problems lingering longer than they should. [...]

I love the brilliant information you always seem to deliver on this site, it’s on my iGoogle page so I can refresh all the time!
The book (Always Be Testing) is really good too. I’ve been able to utilize some things and leverage other ideas I’ve been wanting to try using your slant. Sometimes it’s all in the sell. Thanks!

Now more than ever, websites need to be easy to buy from for increased conversions. Following best practices has never been more essential, and more perceived value to the customer is probably necessary. Even if a “complimentary” or “free” service is something a website or company already provides, positioning that service as a free add-on will benefit now in face of this recession. People need to feel like they are getting a real value in their purchases.

Thanks for the e-book shout-out, Natalie. I’ve been in this business for a while, and I’ve seen the Conversion Fairy about as many times as I’ve seen a Sasquatch or the Loch Ness Monster. We’ve all got to roll our sleeves up and get to work, especially in a bad economy, but the good news is that there’s always room for improvement.
