Cold Tonnage is a book seller specialising in rare and hard to find books. The customer wanted an easy way for customers to find out about his ever changing catalogue of books. We had to keep in mind the design criterion that if he is to put his books on the web then potential customers will be unforgiving if his site does not perform as well as more established websites such as Amazon. We believe we have achieved a good balance of functionality and speed that will assist his administration process with a catalogue of 7600 books. The system used a MySQL database for fast searching linked to an Actinic Catalog solution. According to the MD the only part of his business that is showing increasing results month by month is the business that comes form customers finding his website. All in all a win-win situation for all. |
