Social Networking Sites – A Divorce Lawyers Best Ally

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

How lawyers are using social networking sites to win divorce cases.

Divorce Trial

Users of Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace beware – your every personal detail can be found by clever lawyers looking to get the upper hand in divorce proceedings, custody disputes, and other legal battles.

Many social network users fail to realize how easy it is for any interested party to get personal information and potentially use it against them in court.

In one custody case, pictures posted on a popular social networking site were used to prove a lady was drinking, despite her promises to the contrary. Lawyers have also been know to investigate Twitter feeds for evidence of gifts and promises to mistresses as well as other harmful secrets.

So before you post anything potentially damaging online, watch out. It could be used against you.

Coupons Are Key for eCommerce Success

Monday, October 19th, 2009

New poll shows the importance of coupons in online retailing during the holiday season.

Online Coupons

Want one eCommerce strategy that will result in 30% more sales this holiday season?

According to a new survey by Harris Interactive, a full 30% of adults that use the internet will not buy from an online store unless they have a coupon. 22% of those surveyed will simply go to another store that offers coupons and 8% will wait until a coupon is available.

The survey also shows that 62% of online shoppers actively look for coupons to use with their orders. This can be via a search engine (as if you needed another reason to do Search Engine Optimization), coupon websites like RetailMeNot and Coupons.com, price comparison websites like Pricegrabber.com and Shopping.Yahoo.com, email newsletters, advertisements, and more.

If your company is selling online, offering coupons is a fantastic way to entice people to your store this holiday season. Not only do you help your customers buy the products they want at prices they can afford, you also help yourself to a larger piece of the holiday spending pie.

Read the entire Harris Interactive Second Annual Benchmark Survey on Consumer Coupon Behavior report for more information.
