On the surface it looks very very cool &#8211; great layout and even has a product review functionality. However, adding a product to my cart, here&#8217;s the page I&#8217;m sent to:</p>
<p><a href="http://lukemoulton.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Screen-shot-2010-03-14-at-9.53.48-AM.png"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-81" title="Cart Conversion Page" src="http://lukemoulton.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Screen-shot-2010-03-14-at-9.53.48-AM-510x314.png" alt="" width="510" height="314" /></a></p>
<p>What&#8217;s wrong with this picture? The first button I see says EMPTY CART! WTF? Not only is this page encouraging me to throw away what I was considering purchasing, but it also makes me search for the Proceed to Checkout link. It serves up a <a href="http://www.conversion-rate-experts.com/conversion-killing-mistakes/">Nuke  Button</a> instead of helping me give the merchant money.</p>
<p>If you want people to buy from you, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0321344758?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=smallbus-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0321344758">Don&#8217;t Make Them Think</a>! Give them a nice big juicy BUY NOW button that sticks out.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s all.</p>
