To control this rate, use of latest e-commerce technologies like AJAX and Web 2.0 may help to reduce the abandonment rate to a certain extent. Some aspects considered by the Website Owners to decrease this rate are:

  2. Show cumulative cost: The cumulative cost and the added items should be displayed continuously without the problem of reloading the page again and again.

  3. Remove distraction: Often the websites are overloaded with so much content that the user finds it difficult to decide that where he/she should pay attention. So the distractions should be removed from the website so that the users know what to focus on.

  4. Save items automatically: Auto-saving of items will help the buyer as it will make the check-out process short and simple.

  5. Avoid poor navigation: Navigation and downloading of items should not take time.

  6. Sufficient product/contact information: An E-commerce transaction can lead to a lot of confusion in the customer’s mind so it is important to provide a sufficient amount of information.

Paying due attention to the above points at the time of designing and developing a website will result surely reduce the abandonment rate and also help to create a better E-commerce website.
