Sixty-three percent of shoppers are likely to return to a website if there’s a social login. A shopping 92 percent of users would abandon a website rather than go through a “forgot your password” process.
Use Twitter for Customer service. More than half of customer service questions – 59.3 percent – are asked on Twitter.
