Utilizing Trust Indicators to Increase Site Traffic & Maximize Click-Through Rates
Both clinical research and the experience of practical online marketers have demonstrated beyond doubt that online trust indicators - when recognized by the consumer - give a serious boost to time on site, pages visited, and ultimately conversion.
