Live Chat or Live Help is useful for high value products

Live Chat is specifically useful for high value products. People can’t just see the product images and order them. They need a human touch to their buying process. They need to have a real feel to their buying. They want assurance and some sort of personal feel. Now with a Live Chat support system he can have all this.According to recent research it has been found that more than 90% of visitors leave the website without making a transaction. This is indeed a very disheartening thing for websites and makes online selling a difficult job. To become successful at online operations it becomes necessary to understand why these customers left our website without making any transaction. Having a virtual salesman provides the solution to this problem by keeping a track of visitors and helping them all along.

If your site is interactive and you have a solid knowledge base, I don't think you need a chat software.

They're talking more of an ecommerce-style site where someone can interact with a live salesperson (like in a chat window type thing) before making the purchase.

Thanks for the info. Live chat or online chat is a better idea and it is very helpful to a site. The possible clients can ask questions about the company products, services and online inquiry as well.

It do helps in improving online sales conversion rates and order sizes with one to one contact . ..Still having functionalities as voice as well as video streaming from softwares as SNIP or freewares as Yugma, Dimdim etc through website might enhanced the communication little better..; if implemented.

I have been using SNIP Live Chat for a couple years. From my experience there is no so many people clicking on "Live Chat" button. It is hard to say why.
About 50% of chatters just coming because of curiosity.
So I think it is not so effective as it seemed.
