Kettering, Ohio (PRWEB) July 08, 2013 -- Thrive Analytics, a research and analytics consulting firm, has released a new report titled, "How Loyal Are SMBs to Current Website Providers," offering a detailed look into the Small and Medium-Sized Business advertising space. The report highlights SMBs loyalty toward current website providers, what makes them feel the way they do and what current providers can start and stop doing to better serve them.
Some of the report's highlights are:
• Website provider’s Net Promoter Scores® ranged from a -57 to +15 with an overall average of -25.
• Several factors contribute to the overall low scores, including no or limited contact from current providers, poor results, and lack of website customization.
• The low scores have contributed to high expected churn rates with 40% of SMBs expecting to change providers within the next 12 months.
