The CK Daily – Online Shopping Habits
Happy Thursday!
I hope your week is going great and has been productive for you.
We have been in a deep discussion around here about how people shop on all websites. Does the navigation bar usually at the top of the site matter, or do most people go to a website and just use the search bar to find what they want? For instance, on Amazon, how would you ever find anything without using the search bar? Do people shop by brand first or do they shop by product and then find the brand they are looking for?
Yesterday, I needed a new mouse for my laptop and, of course, I hopped over to Amazon and immediately searched for “trackball mouse” then I looked for the brand I usually use. BUT…when I go to Target’s website, I usually go to the category I want first in the navigation and then narrow it down from there. Maybe it depends on what I am shopping for that determines how I shop. This has really rocked my world in how I interact with different websites. Haha!
So, I am curious, how do you shop when you go to a website (even our website)? Do you just immediately use the search bar or do you browse the navigation menus to narrow it down and find what you want? Just curious for additional feedback from a larger group of people.
Have a great rest of the week and weekend!

Learning Center Article – Tips for Maintaining Your Server
Servers are powerful in every sense of the word, in fact, they can hum for 24 hours a day, seven days a week without having any issues. However, their efficiency can be reduced drastically or even cut short completely if they are deprived of proper maintenance. You can avert server failure or a major disaster by simply having a regular check-up on them. Hiring a server management solution is the easiest and worry-free way to go.
