Take a look at www.xmaselves.co.uk and you will see on the left side, a dynamic product banner, but also on the homepage is a GIFT FINDER. I suspect it is the latter that is generating the sales. By the way, the site looks pants unless viewed in IE7 - something to get sorted for Christmas 2008 ;) I’ve used two, and due to the lack of tracking I implement, I can’t really say which one is generating the sales.

I've not been one to look at these widgets in the past but I think it's time to change that. Nice post Frostie.

I've found implementing some strategies that would make no difference to how I would shop actually have a huge impact on others. Lesson learned!

In broad terms, anyway - dozens, hundreds or thousands a day/month? I, too, see the borked front page for the Christmas site in Firefox, with the PrezzyBox widget on top of the main body content. Had a look at your code and nothing jumps out - thought at first it might have been the nested divs, which could be simplified a bit, but that all seems to work and I don't see any obvious bits of rogue CSS slopping around either. Maybe it's the PrezzyBox include itself causing it - I spent forever and a day trying in vain to stop a lastminute one destroying the layout on MyBrilliantWeekend.com before eventually giving up and picking a different one that worked.
