All the reports and sales data you’ll ever need
From the ability to view your sales over a certain period right down to the ability to see which products perspective customers have placed in their carts and then not bought. Magento has over fifteen different report screens for you to take a look at in your search for more statistics about your website.
Search Engine Opimisation
Magento allows you to personally manage each product’s URL, META tags, page title and description. Each category, page and store on the site can be fully controlled. You can also automatically generate sitemaps or pages with your most popular search terms on them.
Cross‐sells, up‐sells and related items
These are all supported side‐displays of products in Magento for use on your site should you want to deploy them. They help boost your sales and boost the amount of products the customer is being exposed too.
Wishlists and send to a friend
The customer on your site can create their own wishlist of products that they want to buy on your site for later use. They can also share this wishlist with friends should they want to, so their friends can buy them the products from their wishlist. On top of this you can allow users to send any product on the site to their friends via a simple form.
Image zooming, multiple image display and watermarking
Give your users the ability to zoom in on your product images and see your products right down to the nitty gritty details. In addition to this you can display multiple images and have them change on the page as users select certain options. If you want your brand everywhere and are careful about not having your images stolen, Magento can automatically place your logo or any other image directly in the corner of your images to protect them.
Mass import/export of product and customer data
Products and stock can be imported simply into the back‐end of the website to ensure your in store stock levels match those of the online store. Simply inform us of the internal system you have and if it exports as CSV, we should be able to set you up with a system to easily update your online stock levels.
Allow users to tag and review your products
Users can easily review and tag your products to generate more user interaction on your site. Create tag clouds from this data, and average review scores for products on your site. Both reviews and tags can be managed through the Magento administration system.
Mark stock as inactive, or keep them active when sold out
Display your stock as out of stock when you don’t have any left, or simply the product off altogether with a few clicks. Keeping it in your database for future editing should you want to.
