etailinsights eCommerce Data and Sales Blog

If you are looking for eCommerce Leads and wondering how many online retailers use Magento, you are not alone.  It can be even more confusing when trying to determine how many etailers are utilizing each edition of Magento. Not to worry, we can help.

It’s a simple question and frankly, it's why we started etailinsights. We have a database of all the online retailers and a subscription that instantly lays them at your fingertips. But not everyone subscribes to our mailing list, and not everyone knows what to do with that information once they have it.

Building the Database

"You can't hire someone right out of college to do this, Darren."

She was wrong.  I respected her a lot, but I now know for a fact that she was very wrong.  

When we founded etailinsights (see here for why) we were on a quest to build the most accurate database of eCommerce Leads.  This was no easy task.  You see, there was a reason that something like etailinsights didn't exist... it was really really hard to source e-retail leads.  And even harder to keep that database updated and accurate because in the e-retail industry, the Directors of eCommerce move around at a rate of 28% per year.  It's hard to find the Head of Fulfillment for a major Online Retailer.
