			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Thanksgiving rush is now over, and retailers seem to be pretty pleased with the Black Friday results.  However, now Cyber Monday is here and the kickoff to online shopping has begun.  <a href="http://www.internetnews.com/breakingnews/article.php/3850346/Cyber+Monday+on+Track+for+RecordBreaking+Sales.htm">Internetnews.com</a> is reporting sites such as Amazon.com and Walmart.com to be the potential big winners.  Time will tell who is going to be the big winner this holiday season.  Web sales only represent a small portion of the holiday sales, however year after year more and more people are turning to the internet for their shopping.  <a href="http://www.leadpile.com/lead-exchange-blog/2009/11/30/cyber-monday-is-here/bigstockphoto_online_shopping_carts_5318539-2/" rel="attachment wp-att-26604"><img src="http://www.leadpile.com/lead-exchange-blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/bigstockphoto_Online_Shopping_Carts_53185391.jpg" alt="financial Cyber Monday Is Here!" title="bigstockphoto_Online_Shopping_Carts_5318539" width="225" height="150" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-26604" /></a><br />
Leadpile is hoping to capitalize on some of this increased web traffic with some additional lead generation.  Payday loansare in high demand, and we are hoping some will see these short term loans as an additional way to potentially purchase their much needed Christmas gifts.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Everyone is still scrambling to get their shopping done, and Black Friday/Cyber Monday is officially over. These days, more and more people are looking to shop online to find the best deals, save time and energy.  To help with this cause, I researched some top retail websites listed by <a href="http://www.hitwise.com/datacenter/retail/retail-index.php">Hitwise</a>.  This information is based on total internet usage through the end of last month. Maybe these are where the deals are at and we should ALL take a look.</p>
<p>1.  <a href="http://www.azmazon.com/">www.amazon.com</a></p>
<p>2.  <a href="http://www.walmart.com/">www.walmart.com</a></p>
<p>3.  <a href="http://www.target.com/">www.target.com</a></p>
<p>4.  <a href="http://www.bestbuy.com/">www.bestbuy.com</a></p>
<p>5.  <a href="http://www.circuitcity.com/">www.circuitcity.com</a></p>
<p>6.  <a href="http://www.jcpenny.com/jcp/default.aspx">www.jcpenny.com</a></p>
<p>7.  <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=2255956">www.toysrus.com</a></p>
<p>8.  <a href="http://www.kmart.com/">www.kmart.com</a></p>
<p>9.  <a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/homepage.jsp">www.khols.com</a></p>
<p>10. <a href="http://www.overstock.com/">www.overstock.com</a></p>
<p>According to Hitwise, there is a lot of traffic being driven to these popular retail sites through email marketing.  Searching for the best deals is becoming a lot more convenient for customers because you don&#8217;t have to go physically store to store buying each store&#8217;s best deals.  While looking at these various sites myself, I will say that it looks like all of them have major deals going on and FREE shipping.  My prediction is Cyber Monday is going to eventually become more and more popular than Black Friday.<br />
I am sure companies that also work with Leadpile Lead Exchange, are currently working with online retailers to capitalize on this demand for increased traffic.  This is a perfect example of how beneficial affiliate marketing can be to online companies!</p>

<p> </p>
<p>In recent news Amazon.com rolled out that they will be using customer feedback to help market products on their website.  According to <a href="http://www.dmnews.com/Customer-reviews-to-guide-Amazon-marketing/article/121578/">DMNews</a>, &#8220;The company announced this week it has formed a “Holiday Customer Review Team,” comprised of six of its top customer reviewers.&#8221;  These reviewers are going to provide helpful tools to fellow Amazon.com customers.  This is something that caught my eye because you don&#8217;t normally see companies utilizing the very same people that are also customers.  Customers listen to other customers, so this could be a good thing for Amazon.<br />
Today will officially start the Cyber Monday, which refers to the Monday immediately following Black Friday, the kick-off of the holiday online shopping season in the United States between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Hopefully, with the kickoff of the shopping season, we will see more customer feedback being used to help guide customers on shopping &#8220;smarter&#8221;.<br />
Besides shopping websites, sites such as Leadpile Lead Exchange use things such as testimonials to help provide feedback.  Testimonials, customer feedback and other forms of &#8220;product review&#8221; are great ways for companies to know what&#8217;s working and what&#8217;s not working in their company.  Nobody knows a company better than the people actually using it!</p>
