Clicked On Blog

Clicked On has just put live our latest client’s website, epos-solutions.com.

Set to be a major resource for small and medium sized retailers looking to implement an EPOS (computerised till system), it has a directory, glossary and library of articles.

The website is currently in ‘phase one’ and will mature over the coming months.

Clicked On have handled the design and back-end database implementation of the site, and it is the first we have a Squidoo Lens for.

Clicked On would like to wish all our customers and visitors a happy and prosperous 2007.

The New Year is often a time for reflection on the past year and looking forward to the next year. I hope some of the resolutions below will give you some ideas of how you could make 2007 a real online success story.

I was reading some pretty amazing stats recently. Apparently, there are 34.3 million internet users the the UK, representing 57% of the country. Only Denmark, Holland and Norway have a higher penetration of users, but the UK has the greatest number of surfers overall.

‘The 2006 State Of Retailing Online’ report, compiled by Forrester Research and published by Shop.org, predicts there will be a 20% rise of revenues online.

What all this means is that e-commerce has well and truly shaken off the shackles of the dot com boom-and-bust. Fast broadband connections and usability considerations by retailers have made shopping online a desirable alternative to braving the high street.

As the penetration of internet users in the UK continues to grow, so does the readiness of surfers to spend online. It’s not just young users, either. Affluent so-called ’silver surfers’ are quickly becoming the true movers and shakers of the net.

Harnessing this demographic could be key to remaining competitive in an increasingly tough retail market. Special considerations to usability and accessibility must be made for the age group – usage in the group is increasing in spite of a lack of tech-savvy, and disabilities often become more apparent with age.

Clicked On could help place your company at the forefront of online retailing. We can advise on the best way to implement e-commerce for your retail operation, and build a killer e-commerce site.
