How Legacy.com is turning obits into business

Founded in 1998, Legacy.com carries death announcements from more than 1,500 newspaper partners in the U.S. and abroad, including The New York Times, Los Angeles Times and Dallas Morning News, which pay a fee to have obits listed. Those death notices attracted 15.9 million U.S. unique visitors on desktop and mobile in August, a 12 percent increase year-over-year (comScore).
But it’s also increasingly becoming an e-commerce powerhouse, by prompting site visitors to send flowers or give to a charity, and taking a cut of each transaction.

It used to have affiliate relationships with flower vendors, for example, pushing consumers who clicked over to a florist’s site to complete a purchase. Today, Legacy.com still leaves the inventory and delivery to the local florist but has enabled the consumer to complete the entire purchase on Legacy.com, where everything from the flower selections to the checkout process is tailored to the memorial giver.
