Prime E-Commerce Merchandising by InCase

The folks at InCase always provide some great lessons in e-commerce product merchandising. Here are 5 great things they do…
1. Navigation that works like a shopper’s mind. It’s just friggin’ super-intuitive.
2. Photography. Use a professional photographer for product shots. Do it. Don’t skimp here.
3. Compress the shopping experience to speed cart creation - for example look on any category page; you can select views of products in different colors by rolling over the small color thumbnails in each product preview - no need to go all the way to the product page.
4. Lots of “Now Available” in their blog / news section to keep things fresh and updated.
5. Use video of product in action wherever possible. How about this for coolness:
