Who's Using Fresh Store Builder?

[chippyb]

if they reach amazon i think it counts as a click, but it still doesnt mean when they get to amazon they will still buy the product, you will prob only get 50% of checkouts as sales.

I the other day had 24 checkouts in one day but only 8 sales, but there they day before had 16 checkouts and 15 sales, I would just ignore the clicks as it always seems to be double the amount of checkouts from the site

Could it be bots doing that?

Inspired by this thread I took up the $97 offer.

How does the node stuff work? I'm putting together a site about telephoto camera lenses so would want things like the products from http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=sr_ab...|182679031&bbn=1104528&ie=UTF8&qid=1322861682 to be returned.

Can I do that using the node bit or do I need to supply some other info?!

You can get it to auto populate using the node or keyword / keyphrase, e.g. "canon camera lenses".

Cheers for the reply WW, but what are the nodes? Is it contained with the URL string I posted or is there some other way for me to optain it for the search query I had ran?

Unless I'm doing something wrong, the only way I have been able to find the nodes is by looking in the url (seating would be 403682011). Probably is a better way of doing it though.

You can add products individually by using the ASIN key.

thought I'd give this a go (like to try all these things), and have put up sdxccards.co.uk

And the first sale came yesterday.

Do the product descriptions get lifted straight from amazon or can you re-write them?

Anyone notice they get a MySQL error if you select the FILTER option from the pages without choosing any drop down options? You then get this error:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1(No Description) sql: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM products p, products_categories c WHERE p.id = c.product_id AND parent_id = 0 AND c.category_id = 34 AND hidden = 0 AND enabled = 1 AND (offers > 0 OR parent = 1) AND

I've got a support ticket open with FSB at the moment. I guess this is a bug.

Just to let you know, FSB integrates the best spinner API.
This means that if/when you purchase "the best spinner" all you need to do is insert your details into the FSB admin panel and all the title and product descriptions get spun automatically, creating "unique" product pages.

Is the best spinner worth the price then any descent wordpress pluggins to use this with

Got confirmation - this is a bug. Hopefully they'll fix soon.

(carey is a member here & designed the software), the deal is still valid.

WW.

Thanks for posting that link. Just purchased.

PS: When you buy FSB you get a (50%?) discount on TBS.

Not sure where to find the discount you mentioned but here you can get TBS for $47 instead of $77.

I've just converted one of my existing sites into FSB, using another edited template I've made up.

Be interesting to see how it compares to the previous site performance, etc, fingers crossed!

One particular thing which I've disliked so far is using the built in contact form on Fresh Store Builder - it's wide open to bots/spammers etc sending you junk. It also sends blank e-mails too if visitors just press the send button without entering any text.

So, I've added a simple CAPTCHA element to mine to solve this, by editing two files, it seems to work nicely so far. Here's one of my contact pages for example. It also sends a copy of the e-mail to to the original sender's e-mail address.

Happy to share this, if people would like it - please PM me and I'll customise the files for you and send over, it's an easy file replacement then.

how have you got on with getting it in the search engines?

Aquatics seems to have taken ages to get listed, despite the bots going bonkers on it! Finally, some pages are indexed now which is reassuring. I don't think it's FSB though, just a normal delay?
