Cross selling is often the key to a performing e-commerce website. If the user wants to buy a dress, he could be in the mood for buying an accessory or another dress, for a competitive price?

Cross selling is most of the times suggested in the products pages and in the shopping cart, and sometimes even during the checkout.

A little too much, don’t you think?
