New Tradingeye site coming soon!

Thursday, May 19th, 2011

Would you like to contribute or have your site in our showcase?

Email: info@dpivision.com

A lot has happened over the last year and the credit crunch has affected us all. You’ll be glad to hear that we’re moving with the times too!

We’ll soon be launching a new Tradingeye site, a new Tradingeye Themes site as well as a new support centre and forum!

- Would you like your site, or customer’s site in the showcase? We have tens of thousands of unique visitors a month and all previous showcase sites have shown a large increase in visitors and of course sales!

- We’re launching a Tradingeye Themes site and we’re looking for our designer community to contribute. Lots of businesses are moving online to keep up with technology, but they don’t yet want to spend thousands. With a few generic themes you’ll be able to not only help out those customers but also make some nice regular income.

- Any testimonials (or even gripes?) with Tradingeye? We’re here because we listened to the web designer community and retailers. We want to hear you success stories, and we want to stop those little niggles. We want your feedback and we’ll use it.

We’re exited by the changes and hope you are too!

Yours truly,

The Tradingeye Team

.net magazine CMS site of the month

.net magazine CMS site of the month

Selecting the right ecommerce platform can be quite a difficult task. There are so many possibilities, all with their own quirks, (sometimes bloated) feature sets and workflows for implementation, which is why Tradingeye (tradingeye.com) really stands out and Ten Little Monkeys (tenlittlemonkeys.co.uk) is our CMS site of the month.

The site sells designer clothing, gifts and accessories for kids, and was designed and developed by Darren Alawi (darrenalawi.com).

“I needed a PHP platform that was highly customisable and allowed me to hand code the front end”, he explains. Al tough it isn’t free to run Tradingeye – you’ll need to purchase a license – they offer discounts if you buy in bulk, and the support that’s provided makes the cost worth it, says Darren.

“The structure of the site was perfect was well, quite similar to WordPress (wordpress.org) in the way you edit the template files, plus there’s a growing community to discuss issues with.”

New Tradingeye community forum

Monday, July 12th, 2010

In case you hadn’t noticed, we have a brand new community forum! New platform, new design, new features.

http://forum.tradingeye.com/

Based on myBB, the new Tradingeye forum offers the community a great place to discuss all things Tradingeye.

A huge thanks goes out to one of our forum admins, Jordan Smith http://forum.tradingeye.com/user-960.html for having generously offered to perform the work for our members and our team.

Jordan has been a huge help and you can find a few questions we asked him
below:

1) Can you tell us a little about your company?
Jet Hosts – Lightning fast web solutions (www.jethosts.co.uk). I am a web designer and a Server Administrator and of course a Tradingeye forum admin!

2) What made you chose Tradingeye?
Tradingeye is a great e-commerce platform both for me as a designer but also for my clients. All the design can be done via the CSS and the admin panel is intuitive. The SEO and marketing features are also a joy to work with.

3) Why another forum?
The previous Tradingeye forum was running www.vbulletin.com which was very bloated and not standards friendly not to mention the growing numbers of spammers! The Tradingeye community has over 12,000 members now so it was time for a change. I put the idea to Tradingeye to use www.mybb.com as I had previous experience with this platform and they agreed.

4) Can you describe the work you did?
Firstly the new forum hot to be setup then we performed the data migration.
All threads, posts and members had to be seamlessly ported over to the new platform. Once this had been done I re-skinned the theme, installed a few plugins such as www.stopforumspam.com and voila!

Showcase: The Natural Remedy Company

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

The Natural Remedy Company
Tell us a little about your company?

The Natural Remedy Company is exactly that! We sell a range of natural, herbal & homeopathic remedies & products for many ailments & conditions. The remedies you’ll find here are 100% natural, contain no artificial ingredients & are all designed to work with the body in healing itself.

We currently sell a range from Native Remedies & under our own label BioTech Healing which will soon be re-branded to “The Natural Remedy Company”

Why did you choose Tradingeye as your ecommerce platform?

Tradingeye was recommended to us by our web design company, FCS Websites. We wanted a system that is easy for us to use and Tradingeye has a great control panel. It was also important for our site to be visible to search engines and Tradingeye has good optimisation features and search engine friendly code.

Could you please let us know about your project?

The Natural Remedy Company is a place where anyone can buy natural remedies for many common & not so common ailments & conditions. Many people are aware of using alternative medicine for things now-a-days but often are overwhelmed as to where to go & lack the knowledge as to what they might need. The Natural Remedy Company not only sells a range of such products but we also have an in-house expert who can be contacted for individual advice who is a qualified homeopath & nutritional therapist. The requirement for the site design was that it should be predominantly user friendly, simple to navigate & easy to use.

Do you have any future plans for the site?

At the moment we sell two ranges but are looking into expanding this over time. We are currently adding to our own range of supplements on the site & are also in the process of developing our own range of aromatherapy creams/lotions as well as a mummy & baby range.
