We all know the stats: According to various studies, 50%, 60%, even 75% of all carts are abandoned by online shoppers - better known as shopping cart abandonment. While there are many reasons why these shopping cart abandonment rates are so high, there are proven techniques you can use to recover some of such lost sales.

Sometimes all it takes to convert a visitor into a new customer is just some extra help, assurance or a little incentive. Our unique Shopping Cart recovery service enables you to get in touch via email with visitors who have not completed the checkout process.

Using our shopping cart recovery service is risk-free: Not only will we help you get set up for free, but we will only charge a typical affiliate commission for successfully recovered carts. Plus it's completely automated.

What is Monitus Tools?

We believe that there are not enough useful applications specifically developed for the Yahoo! Store platform. We set out to change this by developing tools that meet the following criteria:

Real ROI-based tools: you should make more money or save time as a result of using them.
A low monthly cost to you and no other charges.
Easy on - easy off: leave at any time, no contracts to sign.
Easy to use and easy to install: for a limited time, we'll install our tools for free if you wish.
Only one codebase to maintain: when we improve our tools you will get the benefit immediately.

Keyword Monkey Update

Monitus Tools Updates
Tuesday, 18 November 2008
You may have noticed that we have been reworking the Keyword Monkey email report. The reason why we did this can be summed up in one word: actionability. Analytics tools are great for collecting keywords, but where do you start with optimizing if you have hundreds or thousands of keywords? We asked ourselves the same question and decided that it would be more valuable to present relevant information in the email rather than keeping a separate interface for the Keyword Monkey. All your keywords are being collected in your Analytics program and it does not make sense to keep two or more interfaces running at the same time that essentially show the same information. You can see and export keywords from Google Analytics and there will be an API soon to get keywords directly. If you do miss the Keyword Monkey interface we are rolling out an update to our Transaction Assist report that will allow you to export keyword information that you cannot at this point get anywhere else. I will write about the Transaction Assist capabilities separately. Here is a simple process for using Keyword of the Day (KOTD).
