BuySAFE launches beta of e-commerce rating tool

The company launched a free desktop application on Tuesday called buySAFE Shopping Advisor that offers ratings on U.S.-based e-commerce sites.

The sites are rated based on whether they are using valid SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption for data transmission, whether the sites are regularly inspected for security vulnerabilities, have a published privacy policy, and whether the merchant is bonded.

The integrated browser tool also offers a portal to 3,000 shopping sites where purchases are guaranteed with a bond of up to $25,000 and are protected with identity theft insurance for 30 days.

Arlington, Va.-based buySAFE partners with underwriters Liberty Mutual, Travelers, and ACE on these services.

Best trends in web development in 2024

AI and Machine Learning Integration: Expect to see more websites utilizing AI and machine learning algorithms to personalize user experiences, provide better recommendations, and automate repetitive tasks.

Voice Search Optimization: With the increasing popularity of voice-activated devices and assistants, web developers will likely focus on optimizing websites for voice search to enhance user accessibility and convenience.

Progressive Web Apps (PWAs): PWAs offer a native app-like experience within a web browser, including offline functionality and push notifications. As they continue to gain traction, more businesses may adopt PWAs to improve user engagement and retention.

Single Page Applications (SPAs): SPAs provide a seamless user experience by dynamically updating content without requiring full page reloads. In 2024, we may see further adoption of SPAs for their responsiveness and fluidity.
