Life in the e-commerce fast lane is tough.

E-commerce bounce rates average 33.9% and go as high as 68%. Cart abandonment rates of more than 66% add to the problems that any e-commerce business faces. The growing showrooming trend further threatens the very existence of online businesses.

But here’s the good news: Shopping cart abandonment can still be viewed as an opportunity to be harnessed. And with behavioral targeting and dynamic pricing, you can recover many of those lost sales.

Great share. I think that this is important to discuss because it is a crucial variable that plays in an online seller's profit. More than studying the statistics, we should look at why people are abandoning their online carts to look for objects offline.

Shoppers know they can price-check and showroom to get the best deals in town (and out of town). Smart retailers — especially local stores — will do well to get on the bandwagon.

Many of them don’t know about SaaS services created for retailers so glad the author pointed that out.

Erik: I thought the Google AdSense ads are more general and services like ReTargeted are more specific.

Erik: Thanks for your reply. Do know about some examples of retargeting campaigns? How much does a retargeted ad cost, compared with a regular contextual ad from Google AdSense?

An example of retargeting campaigns are the Google Adsense ads.

Wherever I go around the internet, I find the same retargeted Adsense ads, connected with my recent searches with Google.

This is pretty intrusive.

Hi Martin,

yes, I guess it is part of the "Dynamic & Targeted Content" strategy.

I think that this should be done in a smart way, without pushing too much in retargeting users with ads all around internet.

Dynamic pricing is part of personalization culture of the consumers. Offer them just that can give you an edge over your competitors.
