illi News/10112231

EVANSTON, Ill. - illiNews -- Traffic comes from a combination of paid and organic search results. Paid search includes paid ads, media, and promotion with a strategy anchored on key search terms across retailer websites and online marketplaces. Organic search rank represents visits that come from a search engine and not paid advertising.

Over the last year, enterprise e-commerce has grown substantially while consumers' shopping habits have forever shifted. In our new, digital retail age, consumers increasingly rely on retailers' sites and online marketplaces as platforms for product research as much as purchases.
