Mobile Commerce
A responsive mobile webstore is a must for any online business owner these days, as 82% of smartphone users decide to buy something while surfing the Internet on their smartphones.
We supports a mobile version of your website with a compelling, feature-rich and graphically pleasing storefront, and it provides means for retailers to immediately deliver relevant offers, promotions and products. The mobile-responsive version works on any connected device, without requiring extra development or add-ons. It is free and available out of the box.
Multi-Store
A multi-store feature enables you to run more than one store from a single installation. This means you can host more than one frontend store on different domains and manage all admin operations from your single administration panel. You can create unique online stores for multiple brands, products, B2B, B2C, affiliates, co-branded stores and more. You can also quickly launch micro-stores for promotional campaigns.
The most convenient feature is that every online store shares a single database: you can share catalog data between stores, and your customers can log-in to all of your stores using the same credentials.
The following features can be set up separately for each store:
- Categories and manufacturers
- Products
- Content (news, blog, articles)
- Payments
- Shipping methods
- Tax rules
- Product price
- Newsletters
- Newsletters
- Graphical themes
- Order filtering and reports
- Almost each configuration setting can be set
Multi-Vendor
Multi-vendor and drop shipping support enables you to sell online without having to stock inventory or ship orders.
When drop shipping is enabled, each product is assigned to a particular vendor whose details are stored. Once an order is placed, an email is sent to the vendor of each product in the order. The email includes products, quantities, etc. The vendor then ships the item to a customer on behalf of the merchant, who typically pays each of his/her vendors at the end of the month.
Products from multiple independent vendors appear in the common product catalog and your website visitors can shop at one web store even if your products are supplied by hundreds of different vendors from all over the world. Each vendor can be provided with administrator panel access to manage their products, review sales reports and order details regarding their products. Vendors do not interfere with each other's activity.
Product Features
Create as many attributes for your products as you need, such as size and color — each with its own SKU, price, weight, image and stock level. Store owners can add text options to products for shoppers to fill in, such as initials for monogrammed products. The shoppers can also upload files, for example, for custom prints on shirts.
Comparing products side by side removes the guesswork from your customers and facilitates their research, hence, improving the time spent on, and odds of, adding a product to the cart.
Our inventory management allows store owners to discern physical stock and available quantities. You can easily manage backorder and pre-order status for each product. Multiple warehouses, partial deliveries, and stock management by product attributes (such as color and size) are supported.
In our E-commerce Managment System, price tools go beyond simple price tag creation. Store owners can set different prices for different groups of their customers, hide prices for extra-valuable items and make customers contact a sales team by enabling “call for price”. E-commerce Managment System also supports “enter your price” functionality for donations.

SEO
Search engine optimization is the process of increasing the visibility of a website in search results. Our search engine optimization tool helps you get higher search rankings, meaning more organic traffic going to your store.
To make store pages more search engine-friendly, a store owner has full access to keyword tags and customized URLs management sections. E-commerce Managment System also supports product pages with SEO-friendly names out of the box.
There are two popular versions of sitemaps, and E-commerce Managment System supports both of them. An XML sitemap is a structured format of a site that a visitor doesn't need to see. The sitemap gives information about the pages on site to search engines: their relative importance to each other, and how often they are updated. HTML sitemaps are designed to help users find content on a page. They don't need to include each subpage. HTML sitemaps help both visitors and search engine bots find pages on the site.
icrodata is a specification to embed machine-readable data in HTML documents. Integrating microdata into your website's code offers a number of potential advantages. First, microdata can give the search engine spiders more context for the type of information on the website and the way the site should be indexed and ranked. Another benefit of microdata is the creation of "rich snippets", which display more information on search result pages than traditional listings. E-commerce Managment System supports Twitter and Open Graph (Facebook) META tags.
E-commerce Managment System allows a store owner to localize URLs. URL localization increases the chance of matching search results in other cultures/languages.
E-commerce Managment System supports breadcrumbs. They ease navigation within the search engine results page, which makes your listing look more attractive and trustworthy. Also, when it comes to huge websites, breadcrumbs can be a great way to help users identify where they are located.
URL canonicalization is used to reduce indexing of duplicated pages and it makes a site more crawlable by setting a store URL to the canonical (preferred) URL for each category and product pages.
Checkout
Search engine optimization is the process of increasing the visibility of a website in search results. Our search engine optimization tool helps you get higher search rankings, meaning more organic traffic going to your store.
