Spotlight on: address verification for website forms

     
 


Online sales in the U.S. increased 51%, to $114 billion, in 2003, according to a recent study by Forrester Research and Shop.org. The broader online marketplace presents challenges when it comes to harvesting accurate customer data from your website – more addresses are entering your database via the Web, and the Web is notoriously the dirtiest source of customer addresses.

By validating addresses as customers enter them via your company’s website registration form, QuickAddress Pro for the Web ensures that only valid, properly formatted addresses enter your database, helping you eliminate wasted postage fees and delivery surcharges, and enabling better customer profiling.
