If you run an apparel website you don't need to use the term car, as it be more appropriate to use bag or similar terms. Particularities, like the target countries, were not take into account at the time I did this research. Thanks for the update and letting us know about the trolleys. We use that term here to describe the trolley cars :) Jon, you’re right. If you run an apparel website you don’t need to use the term car, as it be more appropriate to use bag or similar terms.

In the UK, cart is hardly ever used, mainly because we use the word trolley instead of cart in shops. Note that Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk both use the same icon (image 8 above) but the words are cart and basket respectively. I would suggest that most UK based sites use the word basket.

On one hand SEO is so complicated that you have to be an egg-head to understand the algorithms. On the other hand - Next email tells you that SEO is easy and that a site can be indexed in 17 minutes. Glad that you're leading people through the mist with your advice. Peace Out SEO nowadays seems to be both the saviour and nemesis of Internet marketing.

I got only apologizes from canaca. A month ago thiers server crashed and from that time I lost some files and articles, tried my best to fix the problems but I couldn't because problems from hosting company (CANACA). Contact them they could not fix any problem. Finally my website disappeared and I contact them and after few hours I got this reply: "Hello, Please accept our apologizes for the inconvenience and the bad experience which you have had with us. Unfortunately the hard disk which your account is hosted on has been crashed and we are restoring your account from the backup server. This process takes a few hours time. We do our best to fix the issue as soon as possible. Please wait. Your patience is more appreciated. Best Regards, Canaca Com Inc. Please mail us about the quality of your experience at feedback@canaca.com" Went to my website there's nothing, checked cpanel the "public_html" and "www" both were empty, and there's only one file left "cgi-bin". So I lost my website, money, time and two and half years hard work and got Canaca's apologizes. After two and half years of hard work on my website, everything is gone in one day.

I achieve this rate easily with returning visitors however I've been focusing only on new visitors and it is proving to be very difficult to bring that down below 50% and on paid campaigns its closer to 70%, is this a general trend ? Doesn't it make sense to split the bounce rate into new and returning visitors?
