Over the last few years e-commerce analytics has become more complex than ever. As the retail environment becomes ever more competitive and technology transforms customer behaviour and evolves their expectations, new and innovative ways to measure results have arisen.
Sentiment analytics is one of the innovative ways to measure social data and what’s being said about your brand and products to develop effective, creative marketing campaigns and measure your performance.

In essence, sentiment analysis is the process of determining the emotional tone behind a series of words, used to gain an understanding of the attitudes, opinions and emotions expressed within an online mention linked to a store or product.

The amount of customer feedback about a store brand can be unwieldy, and failure to interpret it correctly could be detrimental. That´s where sentiment analysis comes in. Understanding what shoppers are saying about your business on a broad scale reveals buying trends, product flaws, and underlying customer sentiment. How can your e-commerce business benefit and reach new heights?
