I think the biggest influence is the size, shape and placement as your data supports - bigger, bolder = better!

Shopping cart is a U.S. phrase as opposed to shopping bag for instance in Australia. I do believe the research. I did an unscientific study on my website but changing my black with white text Add to Cart button with a larger Green one with a shopping cart logo and my sales increased by 15% immediately. Could be coincidence but I am keeping the larger green button. Just out of curiosity was your target audience primarily in the U.S.?

And then I found this article which presents what the colour suggests, the best types of products and services to use certain colours for, and even the type of shopper - bargain, impulse and so on to target with those colours. http://blog.kissmetrics.com/color-psychology/?wide=1 I’m about to do a website redesign and of course am very interested in the psychology of colour and how it affects purchases.

It seems like the answer is yes from the example from the article. So it's not necessary to make a 10 pound button after all. This answered one of my questions – can the button be too big?

Of course everything is dependent upon the full page design. I do like some of the points you brought up here, but would like to see more detailed descriptions of some of these ideas.

I think an often overlooked part of site performance is the “perceived speed” that the visitor experiences. E.g. a site which loads in 6 seconds might be perceived fast by the visitors if all the slow loading elements is below the fold and the top of the site loads in less than 1 second. On the other hand a site that only takes 2 seconds to load, but where 1,95 seconds is the graphics and styling of the navigation menu might be perceived slow. Interesting post.
