WebForms – the free clickworker tool for creating online forms
Our “WebForms” tool arose from a project in North Rhine-Westphalia titled “web-to-crowd” that was completed at the end of March 2015. The goal of the project was to create a system that would make it easier for small and mid-sized digital media and content industry companies to access the crowd. As a consequence thereof we entirely revamped our self-service marketplace. Numerous features and a user friendly interface make it easier for less technically adept persons to place text creation orders, translations and surveys.
At the same time, the self-service marketplace also provides tools enabling users with large or ongoing order volume to customize the orders to meet their demands. One of these tools is the above-mentioned WebForm tool. This tool is integrated in every order process. In the survey sector, the tool will help you create your survey form. You can edit the task view, which is displayed to the Clickworkers in the text creation and translations sectors.
The tool can also be used separately and free of charge for your own purposes, irrespective of a text, translation or survey order placed within our marketplace.
The ten most important e-commerce trends in 2017
Chatbots, same day delivery or personalized purchases – 2017 promises to be an interesting year. This post provides information about which e-commerce trends will expand and be established and what is behind them.
1. Chatbots
Assistants including Cortana, Siri or Amazon’s Alexo prove that people are quite willing to accept assistance from intelligent machines when they have questions or need help making decisions. This is why chatbots are one of the most significant e-commerce trends. These small programs can bring lasting improvement to the customer’s shopping experience and they are just beginning to take off. For instance, when Facebook presented its bot-engine for the Messenger in 2016, over 30,000 bots were registered just six months later. Users can add them to Facebook-Messenger in the same way as a human contact. The chatbot assists them in the selection of the right eveningwear, the search for the best Italian restaurant or whatever else chatbot operators offer.
Keyword search: The most important tips and tricks in ten minutes
Do you want to create a new website? Redesign an old homepage? To be successful on Google, Bing and on other search engines, one thing is indispensable: the right keywords. We will show you which keyword types there are, how to find the right keywords, and how to search them.
1. The three keyword types
A) Navigation keyword
These keywords are entered by the user into a search engine to find a domain or a specific sub-page of the domain. In the simplest case, he/she enters the domain name into the search engine, e.g., “ebay.de”. This approach may seem ridiculous to an expert; in the language of young people, even the term “googler” is used. However, in fact, many Internet users do not know what an address bar is, or that they can also write the domain name directly there.
Not at all, because the user already knows which website he/she wants.
