Google Products Submission
Google Products is a division of Google that searches through multiple online stores to bring relevant products to customers based on their search criteria. OS3 makes it possible for your entire inventory to be listed on Google Products completely automatically. Many times, a product listed in Google Products can even show up on a normal Google Search. Considering that 53% of Internet searches are done on Google, this could potentially be your biggest sale generator!
Multiple Checkout Options
It's important to provide your customers with a variety of checkout options. Many online stores only offer a few payment methods. However, different customers prefer different forms of payment. Some may prefer PayPal, some Google Checkout, while others may only use credit cards. OS3 provides many checkout options including: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Google Checkout, PayPal, Electronic Check, Check or Money Order, American Express, Diner’s Club, and others.
Advanced Web Analytics
Knowledge is power! By implementing Google Analytics into your web page you have that knowledge at your fingertips. Google Analytics is a free service provided by Google that tracks and keeps advanced information about your web site's traffic. Interested in how many visits you've had over the past month? No problem! Want to see what products have been viewed the most within the last week? Easy! Would you like to know how many customers signed up yesterday? Done! The possibilities are endless with Google Analytics and information can be gathered as broad or as granular as you want it.
Search Engine Optimization
A common Internet myth is that a page will be listed in search engines just because it exists. Not so. In order to obtain competitive search engine rankings, your web site must be created from the ground up for that purpose. With OS3 industry standard guidelines were followed for this purpose alone. Your site with OS3 will have the potential to rank for relevant searches on the major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Live Search!
