Top 50 Retailing Web Sites Named
byInternet Retailer Magazine just announced their Top 50 Retailing Web Sites for 2006. The picks are in seven different categories and they range from giants such as Amazon, eBay and Best Buy all the way to smaller ventures like Vermont Teddy Bear.
If you check out some of the sites, you’ll see a lot of similarities. These sites are built for fast, easy use, yet they each manage to capture a branded look. Most of the sites seem to follow the Web usability advice in Steve Krug’s popular book, Don’t Make Me Think.
