AspDotNetStorefront 9.5.1.0

This release, launched April 7, 2015, continues our company commitment to helping online sellers to drive traffic (and then cope with the resulting administrative effort.)

Highlights

For driving traffic

• Moved to the latest Google implementation of 'Google Trusted Stores' - feeds are no longer necessary
• Google Webmaster tools prefers AspDotNetStorefront kit pages, since we changed the nature of the floating 'buy box'
• We now honor Google Shopping's request for product dimensions (for store-owners using Real-Time Shipping)
• DotFeed now offers "Lookup Data" to extend the nature of data that can be used for Google product optimization

For converting visitors, and taking sales

• Added locale support to the new-look Admin Console that was part of 9.5.0
• Dramatic performance gains, with particular shopper focus on promotions and 'add to cart'
• Further demonstration of adherence to PCI regulations - administrators and shoppers (in the checkout) are 'timed out' for their own safety.
• Improved performance behavior when displaying 'related products'
• The new PayPal lightbox Checkout option is now available for 'guest' (anonymous) shoppers
• The 'View Larger Image' prompt is now intelligent and only appears when a large image has been uploaded

For faster processing of orders, and setting up for further growth

• Dramatic performance gains, with particular administrative focus on shopper/session lookup
• Logging customer searches is now an option - turn it off for faster performance, or let it run to collect search data
• Updates to Monthly Maintenance, to help year-round performance
• New 'bulk' actions allowing volume data throughput - with this release we allow weights and dimensions to be handled in bulk
