Ecommerce news, January 7
Spotted around the Internet:
- Mobile ecommerce visits have grown tremendously in the past year; eBay and Amazon are getting millions of sessions monthly, and Netflix mobile traffic is up 240%.
- Email performed well in holiday 2009, with higher open and click rates than in years past, likely a reflection of the bargain-hunting online masses this past season.
- Those bargain hunters mentioned above cite deals and cool site features as the reasons they’re shopping online.
- And a trend alert: Macy’s experienced 1% same-store growth in December, a good-enough result for the season—but macys.com was up almost 30 percent.
