Ecommerce Links: February 2013
February may be the shortest month, but we weren't short on great blog posts from around the web. Here are 10 you shouldn't miss.
- Do you know the hidden risks of qualitative research such as usability testing? Chris Goward illustrates (literally, see below) how quantitative research provides a hedge.
- Marketers love acronyms like Germans love David Hasselhoff. Discover how to make a landing page that C.O.N.V.E.R.T.S.
- I'll tell you something Germans don't like -- ecommerce cartels. German anti-trust officials are calling for looser restrictions on Amazon Marketplace pricing, which currently demand sellers not sell through any channels at lower pricing than the 'Zon.

- Google+ finally jumps in the social sign on pool. Marketing Pilgrim breaks down all the features Google+ has that Twitter and Facebook Connect don't.
- Now this is what I call cross-channel - a British retailer allows customers to return online shoe purchases at convenience stores and gas stations.
