Selection of goods by characteristics
Ranking of goods is the construction of a list of products by rank. The rank of goods is determined according to certain characteristics that have an influential significance. Usually such selection is carried out according to the price category, and the goods are sorted, starting from the lowest price, according to its increase. But it is also possible to sort by other parameters. In the field of Internet sales of furniture products, sorting of interior items is also possible in terms of size, in the field of electronics sales - according to the class of energy consumption and other similar characteristics. Possibilities of additional sorting provide additional convenience in choosing products, which attracts visitors.
Ranking products by price is the simplest and most common sorting option. When using this option, a product list is generated on the site starting from the minimum price, although you can set the sort order in descending order. Then at the beginning of the list will be the most expensive goods.
According to observations, almost all visitors are able to build the list in descending order of the price or on its increase. Even buyers who come to the site with a precisely formed goal - to buy a certain product - will not miss the opportunity to view this kind of products for prices. This is quite natural, because, as we know, this kind of curiosity activates the buying power well, and if the buyer noticed an option that he considered profitable, he will not miss the opportunity of buying.
For buyers who are only determined with the purchase, the ranking of goods is an indispensable service. Usually, purchases are made according to certain financial opportunities, and it's much easier to navigate in the list where the goods are ranked than to revise the entire catalog, sometimes quite extensive, in search of an acceptable offer.
Therefore, in the majority of online stores, such an opportunity as the ranking of goods is realized in full as a convenient service that allows you to quickly and efficiently select products on some basis.
Selection of products by other parameters
Some sites that sell a large range of goods can have ranking capabilities and other parameters. For example, in an online store that sells clothing, it is quite convenient for buyers to sort by popularity of the product, by new revenue or by size. Such a service greatly simplifies the search for the desired offer and activates the buyer's interest in the goods, because if there is an additional possibility of selecting products, there is a much greater chance that the buyer will be exposed to the goods that interest him.
It should be noted that it is not difficult to include such a function in the resource service as the ranking of goods, if it concerns the usual way of selecting products. In this case, it is possible to use ready-made function blocks that meet the basic requirements. If it is necessary to arrange the ranking of goods by some other parameters, it is most likely that individual solutions will have to be used which will fully meet the task in hand.
