Flyout Menu Navigation Interface – easy access to every page on
your website – from every page on your website.
When you scroll your cursor over a main menu option that contains a
drop down sub menu - the ‘Flyout’ menu will stay in place if you
should inadvertently move your cursor outside the Flyout Menu
field.
This allows you to return to the Flyout Menu and make your
selection without starting over.
Flyout
Menu navigation can be placed on your web pages both vertically and
horizontally
Our
website features horizontally placed Flyout Menu navigation systems
- just click on any of the above navigation menu options.
For a
live example of a vertically placed Flyout Menu navigation system go
to...
hubbardsmarina.com
...which
features both vertical (home page) and horizontal (internal pages)
Flyout Menus. |
Online Store Module – this module requires
our
secure server web hosting and can include the following database driven
programming modules; online store, catalog display pages,
shopping cart and secure
server checkout form which uses the latest in 256-bit Secure Server
Data Encryption.
You will receive email notification of online
orders to facilitate order entry into your
in-house accounting system and order fulfillment. Note - this module requires and
integrates with the User Modifiable Interface described below which
allows you to add, modify and delete products and images for your
online store catalog display pages.
Online Real-Time
Credit Card Authorization Module – this
module requires a secure server and will allow you to process all credit card orders
online automatically including automated charge authorizations. You
will have ample online reports for audit and marketing purposes.
Note – this module will require that you apply and be approved for
an Internet Credit Card Merchant account in addition to your
existing ‘retail’ merchant credit card account.
As an alternative – if you currently have a retail Merchant Credit
Card Account terminal - we can send you an email with the order
details needed to fulfill online website orders. You would then process and authorize
credit card transactions through your current Merchant Credit
Card Account terminal. This method of manually authorizing credit card
transactions would not require the Online Real-Time Credit
Card Authorization Module.
Customer Login Module – this module
requires a secure server and allows your customers to register and log in
to your website using
a username and password to order online, view specialized content
and/or administer their online shopping account. A convenient 'Lost Password'
routine enables the visitor to retrieve their login password
automatically - should it be misplaced or forgotten.
Some add-on options include retrieving a customer’s initial registration data
which can be used to populate all subsequent order checkout forms to eliminate double entry.
Customer’s previous order information
can also be used to create order templates for subsequent orders to
minimize online data entry. These add-on options are
recommended if you expect, or would like, repeat orders online.
User Modifiable Interface -
since the
content on a User Modifiable website changes frequently - it is
stored in a database (instead of on a 'static' HTML page) and when
the website page is selected to be displayed in a browser window -
the page is dynamically created 'on the fly' from the database.
Our programmers can create a custom User Modifiable Interface (UMI)
that allows the website's content databases to be easily modified by
anyone with Internet access and the proper login codes with little
or no training required. Note - User Modifiable Interfaces require
our secure server
web hosting.
This insures that your website content remains
current at all times.
If you additionally purchase our Online Store Module (described
above) you will be able to add, modify and/or delete; customer records,
shopping cart products and images and website content via the website's User Modifiable Interface.
Website Content Search Engine
– allows your website visitors to search for content, products,
virtually any information on your website.
The
search engine will return ranking results sorted from highest to
lowest 'score' - or you can sort by date to find the most current
information on the website for that specific search topic.
In addition to standard site content keyword search functionality
that returns results for all pages containing the keywords - we
can also load 'quick jump' keywords into the search database.
This is a nice feature... for instance, on our website search
engine -
dw site search
- if you type in the keyword 'host' - the search results list 17
pages or so - allowing the you to pick the link that most closely
matches your interest from the search results listing. But if you
type the word 'hosting' - since we have classified this as a
'quick jump' keyword - you go directly to our Hosting Services
page.
This allows you to control which keywords will give your visitors
instant and direct access to specific pages on your website - for
when you don't want the visitor to be presented with multiple
pages to select from - you just want them to go directly to a
specific page when they type in specific keywords or keyword
phrases.
