Overview of this book

Magento is a feature-rich, professional open source e-commerce solution that offers users complete flexibility and control over the look, content, and functionality of their online store. Although Magento provides users with the power to create dynamic e-commerce sites, it can be challenging to get beyond the basics and create sites that are tailored to your unique business needs.This book gives you a hands-on experience on Magento, helping you increase your revenue by implementing proven sales tactics on your Magento site.This book contains techniques to help you with each stage of selling to your customers: attracting visitors, driving them to your product pages, making the sale, increasing sales, engaging your customers, and more. It contains a powerful mix of techniques for increasing sales in your online storefront. Over thirty of the techniques are short and stand alone. A few are designed to be used together, such as the seven techniques in the chapter on creating an international storefront. Some techniques make creative use of Magento’s standard features. A few techniques combine Magento with other tools, such as social networking sites. All the techniques are explained in clear, step-by-step directions, with many screenshots. The book uses an example site for each technique, so that you can see exactly how it will affect your storefront. You can jump into the book at any point, or, work through it from beginning to end.

Preface

Chapter 2. Placing Products on Shopping Sites

In this chapter, you will learn how to place products on shopping sites. We will use Google Base as our example.

Placing products on shopping sites: One at a time

When shoppers want the best price possible for a product, they often use a shopping comparison site. Comparison sites such as www.nextag.com, www.pricegrabber.com, www.shopzilla.com, and Google shopping enable shoppers to find the best price and shipping rates. When the economy becomes more challenging, shoppers' use of comparison sites increases.

If you can offer the best combination of price, shipping rate, and service, then you should consider placing your products on these sites.

Note

In this section, we will use Google shopping as an example of a shopping comparison site. All of the major comparison sites work similarly.
