Testing Your Web Shop Performance for Peak Profits
During the Holidays

A recent Harris Interactive survey indicates that 37% of consumers will do their holiday shopping online this year, either to find better deals and/or to save money on gas.

That's why businesses large and small need to make certain that their Web sites are performing seamlessly at peak capacity now, before the holiday shopping rush hits.

AlertSite's own Ken Godskind elaborates on this in a compelling interview on ecommerce-guide.com. According to Godskind, in preparation for the holiday season, Web site performance monitoring and Web load testing are the two most important critical tests.
