How do I get my product information into my Actinic eCommerce web site?
How do i manage stock?
Actinic's stock monitoring feature allows you to monitor each product line individually, warning you as product levels run low and automatically suspending online ordering when necessary. You are able to print off reports detailing stock levels to help you with re-ordering stock items in plenty of time to fulfill your orders.
Will my Actinic eCommerce shopping cart web site be search engine friendly?
Actinic's software differs from ecommerce solutions which generate dynamic web site pages on the fly from an underlying database. Actinic's strategy is to generate the entire shop's web site on the merchant's pc, and then upload it to the web server in the form of static html web pages. In this way all the text on every web page in the site, including product names and descriptions, is made visible to the search engines.
What this means is that a web search for, say, Reebok trainers, will find an Actinic eCommerce site which is selling them, where as a web site based on a dynamic database is unlikely to show up.
Unique meta tag descriptions and keywords can be easily entered for every page on the web site, making it easy to produce a search engine friendly site without without the risk of accidental spamming.
Addition of home page links on every web page, the inclusion of contact information, and support for alt tags for images are other features which are liked by search engines and directories. Good ecommerce software such as Actinic provides support for them all.
How will I know if an order is waiting at my web site?
You will be automatically notified via email that you have an order waiting. The orders can then be downloaded by Actinic eCommerce software at the most convenient time for you.
