How women use online reviews to shop<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s hardly a surprise, then, that product reviews are such an important consideration when making shopping purchases. A poll of over 11,000 women by Influenster shows the ways in which women leverage social media and reviews to make their purchasing decisions. It\u2019s important to note how significant the mobile phone is here: 67% of reviews are sought on-the-go<\/strong>, which opens up great possibilities to retailers that can respond. The conclusion is that endorsements are all the more powerful when they come from within your network, whether that\u2019s real friends or seemingly affiliated online communities.<\/p>\n

\"Google-mobile-test\"<\/a>Find Out How You Stack Up to New Industry Benchmarks for Mobile Page Speed<\/h3>\n

Global Product Lead Daniel An\u00a0from Google set out to help marketers better understand how various industry sectors are performing when it comes to mobile page speed.\u00a0It’s no secret that shoppers expect a fast mobile experience. If there’s too much friction, they’ll abandon their cart and move on. Today, it’s critical that marketers design fast web experiences across all industry sectors. Consumers want to quickly pay bills on finance sites, get rapid results when they’re browsing vacation reviews, and view an article immediately when they click through.

In short, speed equals revenue.<\/p>\n
