<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #555544; font-size: 11px;&quot;&gt;Fastcommerce is a professional free ecommerce webstore hoster.

If you never use more than fifty products, it will always be free. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Compare with Ebay driving small sellers off, Fastcommerce can be a better choice for small home business. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #555544; font-family: tahoma; line-height: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;post-body entry-content&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 140%; margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: right;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;E-solution: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #669922; background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial;&quot; href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Get Fastcommerce free online shop&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: right;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<item><title>10 Secrets To My Online Success</title>
<link>http://emilyecho.blogr.com/stories/8208241/</link>
<description>Of course your results may vary, but if you apply these lessons, the ones I learned the hard way. You will be way ahead in time and money than I was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are quick hitters and will not be explained in detail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Your not going to be rich overnight - undestand that putting up a website, even with items at great prices that everyone wants it will take time to build that customer base and get ranked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Your results are perfectly designed for your site. What you get is directly tied to how you designed your site, marketed it, and promoted it. Dont expect different results if your doing the exact same thing day in and day out, want different results -change the current process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Dont be fooled by the snake oil man. If it sounds too good then it is. You cannot be ranked #1 overnight, no matter who does it for you, no matter how much you pay for it. SEO takes time and effort and study and patience and proper site design. Watch out for everyone who wants your money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. The customer still is #1. This rule will never change no matter how much we want to be compensated for our efforts and service level. The customer is still boss and you better treat them right, prompt service, filling of orders quickly, follow up on email responses. Do you know I have made additional sales and received testimonials from messing up? Thats right..we may have shipped a wrong item - and in the process of resolving the customer added items to be purchased. Amazing!!! but its a part of the customer service return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Slow is the way its gonna go. You first start out with two orders a day -celebrate you have orders your doing something right. You then go to four orders a day - I know you want more, but celebrate you doubled your sales and so it goes. It will take time and seem like its not happening fast enough, but if your patient enough you will get there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Its cheaper to sell to existing customers than gain new ones. This is so trure!!! Once you have a satisfied customer that customer is going to buy from you again than try someone else they dont know. Its a trust issue and once you have that - you have a customer for life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Keep in contact. Refer back to #6. Can you imagine if you sent an actual hand written note to your best customers what they would think? Not an email which can be blasted out to thousands, but it takes time to send out a hand written note - that will be valued.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Keep em coming back. Give your customer a reason to come back. We sent out a Johnny Lew Contest in which a question was asked and the answer could only be found by visting the site &lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fastcommerce.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Blood Sweat &amp;amp; Laughs and sometimes tears. This is what its going to take to create your own business. No one else is going to do it for you. Persistance and relentlessness. Not listening to those who say it wont work. That should be inspirational and not demotivating when someone tells you that. Keep learning, trying and you will succeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Dont give up!!! taking points 1-9 and going over them again and again - if you give up its because you&apos;ve lost your passion - you may have been a day away of getting that big break that sent you on your way. In the USA you can do anything you set your mind and efforts on.</description>

<item><title>Shoppers divided prefer web to in-store...</title>
<link>http://emilyecho.blogr.com/stories/8204458/</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;In a research note,for the first time, the web has surpassed the store as the preferred way for multi-channel shoppers to purchase &lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;holiday gifts&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nearly half (49%) of those shoppers say they intend to do their holiday gift buying online, compared with 44% who plan to do so in-store, found the online survey of over 1,000 adults who shop online four or more times per year, spending at least $500 annually.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other key findings:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reasons for shopping online start with saving time (88%), locating hard-to-find products (84%), greater selection (83%) and avoiding the crowds at the mall (83%) - all surpassing saving money, which is still an important factor (80%). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of the tough economic climate, 52% of consumers plan to buy fewer holiday gifts this year. The average number of gifts is projected to be down from 16+ last year to 11-15 this year &lt;br /&gt;Although consumers plan to buy fewer gifts and spend less for those gifts, 72% (vs. 65% in 2007) are planning to research products online prior to purchasing. &lt;br /&gt;Over 91% plan to purchase the same number or somewhat more gifts online; that&apos;s equal to last year&apos;s levels. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Value spending is definitely the mantra as these multitasking consumers watch and monitor the web to get the best deals,&amp;quot; said Lauren Freedman, president of the e-tailing group. &amp;quot;Holiday gift buying is particularly impacted by this propensity for shopping smart as consumers preview online to get the most for their money.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Convenience and efficiency have clearly made shoppers more comfortable with the online channel, as evidenced by more products&apos; being sold across a broader range of categories as well as increased usage of tools and information, according to the e-tailing group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additional findings:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The No. 1 customer reason for not buying more online is the high cost of shipping; that&apos;s according to 78% of those surveyed: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Free shipping (95%) and sales/specials (83%) are at or near the top of the list of what influences the buying of gifts online; another is keyword search (86%). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For 42% (vs. 30% last year), gift cards will account for 11-50% of their online holiday spending. Wish-list use has also accelerated, with 35% (vs. 25% last year) reporting that they have shopped online from someone else&apos;s wish list three or more times. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Although the internet is now the shoppers&apos; channel of choice, economic pressures are making the stakes high for merchants. They need to continually learn from and react to their customer&apos;s multi-channel demands,&amp;quot; cautioned Kelly O&apos;Neill, e-commerce marketing director for ATG. &amp;quot;It is imperative that practical solutions be deployed wisely throughout the holiday season and into 2009.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Contact Information:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fastcommerce.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; : Take your business online with a professional e-commerce website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;777 Mariners Island Blvd , Suite 620&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;San Mateo , CA 94404&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tel: 888-598-2211&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Email: info@fastcommerce.com&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<item><title>Credit crisis wins business award</title>
<link>http://emilyecho.blogr.com/stories/8204065/</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;A &amp;quot;lucid and prescient&amp;quot; explanation of the credit crisis, and how to survive it, has won the 2008 Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;When Markets Collide&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; by Mohamed El-Erian was described by Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman&apos;s chairman and chief executive and one of the judges, as &amp;quot;extremely accessible and compelling&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mr El-Erian collected the £30,000 ($52,000) prize last night at a gala dinner at The Plaza, New York. Samuel Palmisano, chief executive of IBM, was the guest speaker.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The book, published by McGraw-Hill in May before the latest convulsions of the credit crunch, has already had a big impact, partly because its author is also co-chief executive officer and co-chief investment officer of Pimco, the fixed-income fund manager.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reviewing the book in July, the Financial Times&apos;s John Authers said few people were &amp;quot;as well-positioned to understand markets&amp;quot; as Mr El-Erian, who has also worked at the International Monetary Fund and run Harvard University&apos;s $35bn (£20bn) endowment fund.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lionel Barber, editor of the Financial Times and another judge of the award, said &lt;em&gt;When Markets Collide&lt;/em&gt; was &amp;quot;lucid and prescient in its diagnosis of the present financial turmoil&amp;quot; and offered &amp;quot;important prescriptions for the way forward&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The book explains how a collision between markets of yesterday, centred on the US and the developed world, and the emerging markets of tomorrow is creating new opportunities and risks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It breaks new ground for the Business Book of the Year Award, launched in 2005, by being the first winner to offer explicit investment advice, alongside its economic and geopolitical analysis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;When Markets Collide&lt;/em&gt; - subtitled &amp;quot;Investment Strategies for the Age of Global Economic Change&amp;quot; - took the top prize against keen competition from five other finalists.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They were: &lt;em&gt;The Snowball&lt;/em&gt; , the biography of Warren Buffett, the investor; &lt;em&gt;Remix&lt;/em&gt; , on copyright and the internet generation; &lt;em&gt;Mc-Mafia&lt;/em&gt; , about globalisation and organised crime; &lt;em&gt;Cold Steel&lt;/em&gt; , on the Arcelor/Mittal takeover; and &lt;em&gt;A Splendid Exchange&lt;/em&gt; , a history of free trade. Each finalist received £5,000.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The FT/Goldman Sachs award seeks the book that each year provides &amp;quot;the most compelling and enjoyable insight into modern business issues, including management, finance and economics&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Note: With FastCommerce.com&lt;/strong&gt;, you get a free web-based ecommerce package that is free to set up and free to use.

<item><title>Analysis: The New PayPal</title>
<link>http://emilyecho.blogr.com/stories/8202934/</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;To more than 50 million users, PayPal used to signify &lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;a peer-to-peer payment exchange&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; that relied largely on email notifications. Not anymore. While PayPal still stands as one of the most recognized brands in the ecommerce world, it’s no longer a single payment system: It&apos;s a suite of different payment options that can assist merchants to start accepting payments online or enhance their existing payment functions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What are they? How do they differ from each other? Which ones should you use, if any? Let&apos;s take a look.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Website Payments Standard&lt;/strong&gt; uses PayPal’s own website to process payments for you. Customers temporarily leave your store and pay on the PayPal website, with or without a credit card (e.g. they might use their PayPal account, which contains funds deposited from their checking account). Customers are taken back to your website at the end of the transaction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Website Payments Pro&lt;/strong&gt; combines two payment systems:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Direct Payments, whereby customers pay at your store via credit card, without knowing that PayPal is involved. No PayPal branding appears on the payment page. This is an alternative to establishing a merchant account and payment gateway relationship yourself: PayPal will be both your merchant account provider and payment gateway.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Express Checkout, essentially PayPal&apos;s answer to Google Checkout -- although PayPal developed the concept first. Users can opt not to register or login at your store; instead, they complete their purchases at PayPal, where the same login information can be used for any store that supports Express Checkout.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PayFlow Payment Gateway&lt;/strong&gt; presents two choices that incorporate the PayFlow payment systems from VeriSign, which PayPal purchased in November 2005:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PayFlow Pro is a standard payment gateway, which translates into a credit card form shown to customers during checkout. Customers don’t leave your store during the transaction. A component must be installed on the web server hosting your store. You will need an Internet merchant account through your bank or other merchant account provider.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Payflow Link directs customers out of your store to the Payflow Link page, where they pay for the order. This system is typically used when you don’t have a shopping cart, and you are simply in need of a payment page to collect payment for a product or service.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you confused? I was. Website Payments Pro (WPP) Direct Payments and PayFlow Pro both allow credit card payments, on a merchant’s own website, without any PayPal branding. What&apos;s the difference? Why does PayPal offer both? Here we go:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;For your customers: there is no difference.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;For you: it’s speed of setup, cost, and reporting features.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are a new or very small business, go with Website Payments Pro as getting setup is likely faster and easier since you don’t need to obtain an Internet merchant account.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cost-wise, WPP is cheaper until the number of daily transactions becomes substantial. Specifically, PayFlow Pro costs $40 more per month than Website Payments Pro and has a setup fee of $249, but a much lower cost per transaction ($0.10 versus $0.30 for WPP). The credit card processing rates that you can obtain through your bank (if you are an established business) might also be lower than the rates charged by Website Payments Pro, which vary between 2.2% and 2.9% depending on volume and other qualifications.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Do the math and – depending on the average order amount on your web store – you’ll find that PayFlow Pro becomes cheaper when the number of transaction hits a certain threshold, which is normally a few hundred orders a day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are also differences in functionality. In my experience, large stores that process hundreds of orders a day typically use PayFlow Pro. It provides more advanced reporting and transaction reconciliation features, for example, on top of the lower cost per transaction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How about Express Checkout? Once it has been integrated into a shopping cart, it can be used with any gateway supported by the cart, not just PayPal’s. So you could be using Authorize.Net and Express Checkout on the same store, for instance. If you opt to use Website Payments Pro (Direct Payments), Express Checkout is enabled automatically (a PayPal requirement that your shopping cart provider had to comply with).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And PayFlow Link? It’s for merchants that typically don&apos;t have much experience with ecommerce and want a solution to cut and paste HTML into their website to allow the purchase of a few products or services. In other words, if you are using a shopping cart, you will not use Payflow Link. So don’t worry about it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Let’s recap.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website Payments Standard: Use it to offer PayPal payments if your shopping cart does not support Express Checkout. If it does, then Express Checkout basically replaces it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Express Checkout (Website Payments Pro) Activate it on your store if you want to provide an alternative checkout option, similar to Google Checkout. Customers that hate to register with a new store will appreciate the ability to bypass your registration form.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Direct Payments (Website Payments Pro): This offers an easy way to support credit card payments on your store without having to get an Internet merchant account. Customers stay on your store and there is no PayPal branding.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PayFlow Pro: If your store processes several hundred orders a day, go with PayFlow Pro to take advantage of more robust reporting and transaction reconciliation tools. You will need an Internet merchant account through your bank.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PayFlow Link: If you use a professional shopping cart, you don&apos;t need it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Check with your shopping cart software provider to determine which of these payment options could be used on your store. If you are looking for new shopping-cart software, PayPal has a list of compatible carts on its website.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To more than 50 million users, PayPal used to signify a peer-to-peer payment exchange that relied largely on email notifications. Not anymore. While PayPal still stands as one of the most recognized brands in the ecommerce world, it’s no longer a single payment system: It&apos;s a suite of different payment options that can assist merchants to start accepting payments online or enhance their existing payment functions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What are they? How do they differ from each other? Which ones should you use, if any? Let&apos;s take a look.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Website Payments Standard&lt;/strong&gt; uses PayPal’s own website to process payments for you. Customers temporarily leave your store and pay on the PayPal website, with or without a credit card (e.g. they might use their PayPal account, which contains funds deposited from their checking account). Customers are taken back to your website at the end of the transaction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Website Payments Pro&lt;/strong&gt; combines two payment systems:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Direct Payments, whereby customers pay at your store via credit card, without knowing that PayPal is involved. No PayPal branding appears on the payment page. This is an alternative to establishing a merchant account and payment gateway relationship yourself: PayPal will be both your merchant account provider and payment gateway.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Express Checkout, essentially PayPal&apos;s answer to Google Checkout -- although PayPal developed the concept first. Users can opt not to register or login at your store; instead, they complete their purchases at PayPal, where the same login information can be used for any store that supports Express Checkout.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PayFlow Payment Gateway&lt;/strong&gt; presents two choices that incorporate the PayFlow payment systems from VeriSign, which PayPal purchased in November 2005:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PayFlow Pro is a standard payment gateway, which translates into a credit card form shown to customers during checkout. Customers don’t leave your store during the transaction. A component must be installed on the web server hosting your store. You will need an Internet merchant account through your bank or other merchant account provider.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Payflow Link directs customers out of your store to the Payflow Link page, where they pay for the order. This system is typically used when you don’t have a shopping cart, and you are simply in need of a payment page to collect payment for a product or service.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you confused? I was. Website Payments Pro (WPP) Direct Payments and PayFlow Pro both allow credit card payments, on a merchant’s own website, without any PayPal branding. What&apos;s the difference? Why does PayPal offer both? Here we go:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;For your customers: there is no difference.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;For you: it’s speed of setup, cost, and reporting features.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are a new or very small business, go with Website Payments Pro as getting setup is likely faster and easier since you don’t need to obtain an Internet merchant account.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cost-wise, WPP is cheaper until the number of daily transactions becomes substantial. Specifically, PayFlow Pro costs $40 more per month than Website Payments Pro and has a setup fee of $249, but a much lower cost per transaction ($0.10 versus $0.30 for WPP). The credit card processing rates that you can obtain through your bank (if you are an established business) might also be lower than the rates charged by Website Payments Pro, which vary between 2.2% and 2.9% depending on volume and other qualifications.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Do the math and – depending on the average order amount on your web store – you’ll find that PayFlow Pro becomes cheaper when the number of transaction hits a certain threshold, which is normally a few hundred orders a day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are also differences in functionality. In my experience, large stores that process hundreds of orders a day typically use PayFlow Pro. It provides more advanced reporting and transaction reconciliation features, for example, on top of the lower cost per transaction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How about Express Checkout? Once it has been integrated into a shopping cart, it can be used with any gateway supported by the cart, not just PayPal’s. So you could be using Authorize.Net and Express Checkout on the same store, for instance. If you opt to use Website Payments Pro (Direct Payments), Express Checkout is enabled automatically (a PayPal requirement that your shopping cart provider had to comply with).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And PayFlow Link? It’s for merchants that typically don&apos;t have much experience with ecommerce and want a solution to cut and paste HTML into their website to allow the purchase of a few products or services. In other words, if you are using a shopping cart, you will not use Payflow Link. So don’t worry about it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Let’s recap.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website Payments Standard: Use it to offer PayPal payments if your shopping cart does not support Express Checkout. If it does, then Express Checkout basically replaces it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Express Checkout (Website Payments Pro) Activate it on your store if you want to provide an alternative checkout option, similar to Google Checkout. Customers that hate to register with a new store will appreciate the ability to bypass your registration form.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Direct Payments (Website Payments Pro): This offers an easy way to support credit card payments on your store without having to get an Internet merchant account. Customers stay on your store and there is no PayPal branding.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PayFlow Pro: If your store processes several hundred orders a day, go with PayFlow Pro to take advantage of more robust reporting and transaction reconciliation tools. You will need an Internet merchant account through your bank.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;PayFlow Link: If you use a professional shopping cart, you don&apos;t need it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Check with your shopping cart software provider to determine which of these payment options could be used on your store.

<item><title>suspicious packages found in a shopping...</title>
<link>http://emilyecho.blogr.com/stories/8201812/</link>
<description>Lake Mary Police weren&apos;t taking any chances on Saturday evening when two  &lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;suspicious packages&lt;/a&gt; were found in a shopping plaza parking lot just after 8  p.m.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An area was secured with rope near a Pet Smart, which kept some  people from picking up their pets.  &lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;I&apos;m a little concerned. My baby&apos;s in there,&amp;quot; said Candy Heller, who was  anxiously awaiting to retrieve her Cockerspanial. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A bomb squad sent in a robot to assess the danger, before a deputy approached  to take pictures, while wearing a protective suit.  Curious onlookers were also  taking some souvenir shots. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;I really don&apos;t think it&apos;s a bomb or anything like that,&amp;quot; said Alan Monty.   &amp;quot;I&apos;m just curious, trying to figure out what it might be.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;Bomb technicians  with the Seminole County Sheriff&apos;s Office eventually were able to examine what  were described as two suitcases.  It was determined that there was no risk to  the public and the shopping plaza was reopened around 9:30 p.m.</description>

<description>Fastcommerce shopping carts software combines innovative web design and Product presentation With Tightly Integrated Multi-Channel Fulfilment Processes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;Fastcommerce shopping carts software&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; has been announced a new release of &apos;MotiveShop&apos;, its ecommerce software solution for the retail sector - &lt;a href=&quot;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&quot;&gt;http://system.fastcommerce.com/&lt;/a&gt;. MotiveShop enables retailers to maximise ecommerce revenues by being able to present visually dynamic, content-rich product information to customers, whilst also extending sales reach and increasing conversion values.&lt;br /&gt;With each month bringing ever more dire figures from the high street, the potential rewards on offer for the successful multi-channel retail strategy are compelling. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, many retailers are now discovering, if ecommerce is to become a significant revenue stream, fulfilment processes must be integrated across channels and extend to after sales.&lt;br /&gt;Andy Derrick, managing director of Motive Technology, explains, &amp;quot;Those multi-channel retailers still relying on disjointed systems for high street and online sales channels are suffering increasingly untenable costs, significant stock and price inaccuracy and are unable to deliver key customer services - such as reserve online and collect in store. With our MotiveShop ecommerce software solution, retailers now have the opportunity to integrate on and offline sales by driving online purchasers into stores to collect their goods, thus providing another opportunity to sell. It therefore becomes crucial to ensure consistency of message across all channels in terms of product information, availability, price, product delivery and returns.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;Derrick continues, &amp;quot;MotiveShop allows retailers to satisfy the diversification of customer needs and provide a seamless service experience. By combining innovative web design and product presentation with excellent fulfilment processes, we can help multi-channel retailers to increase their basket value, improve sales of relevant, high value accessories and feed products to much larger audiences.&amp;quot;</description>
