An insight into the mind of online shoppers has been revealed in a recent survey.
The Pew foundation quizzed thousands of online shoppers to find out why they shop online, and they found the top four reasons are:
- Shopping online is convenient (78%)
- Best place to buy items that are hard to find (77%)
- Shopping online saves time (68%)
- Best place to find bargains (49%)
The study showed that online shoppers’ attitudes haven’t changed a bit since 1999, when the last survey took place, despite the Internet growing by 3,042%.
Internet security was also highlighted as a growing concern, with 75% admitting they don’t like giving their credit card number or personal details online.
But those questioned said they don’t mind leaving details once they are satisfied the site is credible so make sure your shop lives up to the test to keep customers coming back.
Is your work mug chipped and tired looking? Does your coffee cup keep leaving stains on your desk? Or does your wardrobe need a mini makeover?

Thank you Jim for donating this useful tool.
One of Dpivision.com’s customers have put their best foot forward when they took part in a fund-raising walk for Autism Speaks.
And the team at Dpivision.com have helped them to raise hundreds of pounds for the charity by sponsoring them in their walk around the picturesque Alnwick Garden in Northumberland.
Gayle Hibbert-Jones, of Gidy Kipa, enjoyed the sponsored stroll around the world-famous gardens with her kids William and Ava, helping to raise more than £23,000 for Autism Research.
Wladimir Baranoff-Rossine, project manager, said: “Well done on completing the walk and helping to raise such worthwhile funds.
“We were happy to sponsor you and help give you that push to keep you going along the way.”
