Online, October 6, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Vancouver, British Columbia -PEER 1 Hosting, the global web infrastructure and cloud hosting provider, has issued a guide that outlines the vital ingredients for a successful eCommerce website in the run-up to the crucial holiday season.
As the 2013 holiday season approaches, brands are gearing up for the busiest time of the year for online retail. PEER 1 Hosting understands the importance of ensuring eCommerce platforms are ready for the influx of consumers during the holiday period, having provided hosting solutions for big name brands such as Waitrose, Debenhams, Missguided and the White Company, among others.
The stakes are high for retailers during this busy period, with consumers increasingly intolerant of slow sites, drawn-out transaction processes, or websites crashing. Any of these factors can cause consumers to shop elsewhere, and so, PEER 1 Hosting has issued this whitepaper to give brands the best advice on how to provide a solid eCommerce platform.
The two key elements that this whitepaper outlines to ensure holiday success are:
• Infrastructure performance, availability and scalability
• Design and user experience
With the launch of this whitepaper, as well as the Christmas eCommerce hotline, PEER 1 Hosting hopes that brands that feel unprepared can turn to them for assistance. The hotline offers a direct route to its eCommerce team while the whitepaper gives advice gained from its many years experience working with eCommerce firms in the UK, North America and EMEA.
