Notes:

We created a secure database driven Content Management System (CMS), where the customer can easily upload the text and images of their ecommerce products, and information pages.

The website admin system automatically resizes and optimises the images, and adds them to the catalogue of products available to view online.

All of the products and categories can be controlled by the admin area, as well as the ecommerce order management, discounts, delivery rates, and newsletter management.

The website search applies rules to order the most relevant results first.

The CMS and eCommerce systems create pages with semantic URLs, and because the urls are based on product and category titles which usually contain important keywords, this can be beneficial for search engine listings.

We created a self-updating XML Sitemap Page. This keeps search engines (inc. Google) informed when pages are added or modified. It provides hints for web crawlers to do a better job of crawling the site.

The website has a liquid layout, which is most notable in the category pages where multiple products are displayed. The number of product thumbnail columns will automatically increase or decrease to fit the current screen size.

Technical Notes:

This website is a pure text (with XHTML semantics) CSS controlled design, which benefits search engines, bandwidth, and people with disabilities (running text browsers/speech readers).

We used ASP as our Server-Side Scripting Language with a MySQL Database, enabling us to deliver a dynamic website and Content Management System (CMS).
