Odds 'n' Ends

New Forum Sections

The Web Marketing & E-Commerce Forum (http://wilsonweb.com/forum/) is growing. Not only do we have great moderators, but we've created a couple of new sections:

"Teaching E-Commerce & Web Marketing" where teachers and trainers can share resources and teaching ideas with each other. Academics are welcome here. This will be moderated by Dr. Michel Fortin, a professor of marketing at Algonquin College, Ottawa, who goes by the alias "The Success Doctor" (http://www.successdoctor.com)

"Conferences, Seminars, Courses" If you know of an upcoming conference, why don't you list it there. If you've attended one of the previous events of a conference, why don't you share your comments about it -- just be aware that we edit out the hype conference promoters insert here. Let's have REAL comments. :-)

In addition we have Forum sections on 15 other e-commerce and Web marketing topics. We have some great discussions going in the areas of e-mail marketing, site promotion, shopping cart software, order fulfillment, and elsewhere. A place to inquire and learn from others. BTW, we still moderators for a couple of key forums. Interested? http://wilsonweb.com/forum/

The August 16th story, entitled "Drawing up a Web Sales Strategy," looks at results of small business e-commerce sites. http://www.msnbc.com/news/294248.asp
