October 2010 - Shockeronics.com is Short listed for Award
Continuum elegantly blended a host of technologies to achieve a site that engages customers and, most importantly, sells products, around 50,000 at last count! And now the site has been short listed for the 2010 Eircom Golden Spiders!
Continuum used BV Commerce, the first commercial shopping cart software for the .NET framework, to power the Shockeronics store. The latest version is built for ASP.NET and Continuum has incorporated JQuery javascript library which makes it much easier to program AJAX functionality on the front end. That means Shockeronics have incredible flexibility and can support seasonal promotions and call out featured products.
Just like any great store, the Shockeronics site remembers return customers and allows them to set up an account, reorder previously purchased items, or create a wish list. Site mechanics allow product up-sells and cross-sells. When customers have questions, they use online chat (integrated with Zopim) to get fast answers.
Many customers find electronic products through search engines so Continuum built the site to be SEO-friendly. It’s easy for search engine spiders to navigate and index the site. Continuum has advised Shockeronics on SEO, pay-per-click advertising and social networking so Shockeronics can continue to affordably build their online presence. Integrated Google analytics will focus the site on continual advancement.
