Display Tab

Product Title: This should be a couple of concise generic words followed by your product name or brand name. This structure is to maximize the search engines indexing your product. Note that in the product title field using very descriptive words in front of your product name GREATLY increases your search results on Google, Yahoo, MSN and other top search engines.

Category: Make certain the proper category is selected for your item. If your item is appropriate for more than one category, hold the Ctrl key and select other categories. 

Teaser Image: This is the small thumbnail image on the system. It should be a close-up jpg or gif  approximately 75 pixels wide. The system will automatically size the image for you, but some quality may be lost.

Teaser Text: This should be a very descriptive (no sales pitch) sentence. A straight and to the point description. Please limit to 200 characters. 

Detail Product Image: This is a more detailed product image that can either be a large version of the thumbnail or an action shot jpg or gif of 300 pixels wide. Again, the system will resize the image for you if desired.

Enlargement Image: This is an  enlarged view of the product that will pop up when the regular image is clicked on. Upload an image at least 600 pixels wide for this field


Detail Product Description: The Detail Product Description should have a broad explanation of the item. Sales pitch verbiage is not recommended (example: greatest thing since sliced bread will cure all your ailments, out sells any other). Please keep product description straight and to the point but feel free to use as many words as it takes keeping in mind bullet points and concise informative text is best. We do not recommend excessively long descriptions however. Keep it professional, well written and most of all "spell check". Feel free to paste in html but make certain any links or images have the  full web address of the image (example: http://website.com/image/bigimage.jpg for image links or http://website.com/image/bigimage.htm for page links) or use the built-in image upload function (available on IE only).

Meta Description: This is the description that shows up in the search engines. Once again use only concise descriptive verbiage with no sales pitch. 

Meta Keywords: These are the primary words that drive the search engines. Keep the words descriptive as possible and do not repeat words too often as search engines will lower your rank if you do.
