Third party ratings and reviews

Each modern e-commerce site typically use ratings and reviews.

In the open-source CMS world we can most likely find a plugin for free or for a reasonable price that will show 5 or 10 star rating.

In the corporate world where customizations and site design ethics supercede, these become individual components managed by third party ratings and reviews vendors such as Power Reviews or Bazaar Voice.

Capabilities of open-source components will vary, require in-depth analysis and almost always require some level of customization. Third party integrations, on the other hand, will indubitably cost considerably more.

Most third party vendors will have some common items to display customized ratings and reviews sections like the starts or other graphics to visually represent the ratings with optional links to write or view the actual ratings; a possible summary section of the ratings and reviews below the product; a main reviews section with the latest reviews that often has other customizable visual representations dependent on product properties; and a mechanism for writing the reviews.

Most advanced integrations often include a link that can be emailed to visitors who buy a product integrated into a mechanism for writing the reviews without having to log in through the main website; a method involving FTP automation and integration of ratings and reviews into the appropriate areas on the site to facilitate SEO; and a method to share individual reviews (in addition or regardless of other sharing integrations) with other social media components.

While not cheap, depending on the emphasis a corporate entity deems appropriate to the propagation of their merchandise, these third party vandors can truly boost the sales (depending on the quality of the products, of course.

Adding AdSense to monetize

AdSense is Google’s advertising platform. To be able to put ads on a website, certain criteria must be met. Details are available on their website https://www.google.com/adsense/ . Once the account is approved, ads can be placed on multiple websites. Only one Google Account is allowed to have an AdSense account per person. Adding it to a WordPress site such as this is pretty simple. Plenty of plugins handle Google as well as other Ad platforms that can be integrated. While Google’s ads may not have the most monetary value, my personal view is that they’re pretty fair.

Your Computer Matters – Color, Computers and Resolutions

Color Matters – Color and Computers – http://www.colormatters.com/comput.html.

Here’s a wonderful introduction to how to interpret color on a computer screen – seeing is not always believing.

Here’s a few lines from it:

Here’s the path that the graphic took to get to you:

1. The image was placed in an html script (web page) that can be read by all Web browsers. This script was sent to the Color Matters’ web server computer in Honolulu, Hawaii.

2. Your Web browser software connected your computer to our server and brought the image into your computer. The colors in this gif image passed through the browser and brought this information into your computer operating system.

3. The colors in the image passed through your operating system hardware. If you have a graphic card or video card it may have joined in to interpret the color.

4. Your monitor took all the information and sent it to your eyes.

In conclusion, remember that different computers do different things, many “systems” have different configurations of all of the above things, and browsers used to view the World Wide Web are part of the overall picture.
