Ahoy me hearties! Hang on that’s pirates…never matter. It’s me The Blog Master and I’m back to spread yet more words of cyber wizardry to all ye merry gentle-persons – this time about that majestic application Magento that everyone keeps making such a fuss about.
T’was just last year when we all noticed Magento dramatically multiply by the ecommerce dozen, with scores of websites converting to the ecommerce application.
Being curious beings, we at The Pixel set-to with fathoming why this was so. Have no illusions my friends, we know the fabulous reasons why a squire would choose Magento as his honourable ecommerce steed – for it has been said in words of no uncertainly right here: What is Magento?.
But what tickled our fancy most, was finding out if there was just one noteworthy reason that so many websites wish to be transformed. We scoured our own inquires and the internet to conclude that the premier reason was Magento’s ability to help businesses grow faster than dung leaves a stable boy’s shovel.
Think about it for flobs sake! To have all Magento’s features built from scratch, to fit an in-house CMS would cost a million gold sovereigns even if you bartered for an hour!
Bespoke systems are tailored specifically to clients’ requirements – yes we know the advantages, so don’t think we don’t! But place upon your mind that Magento is open source and can be fully customised to the extent of any in-house system, and your reasons for wanting your own individual CMS suddenly become very slim indeed now don’t they?
By increasing functionality with search engine friendly URLs, Google Analytics integration, batch product updates, sales reports – oh my goodness the list is longer than my mutton chops – without having to fork out huge bags of pennies, your store and sales can grow faster than a piglet squirms from the arms of a butcher.
Ladies, gentlemen, orcs and other – Magento appears to be the chosen platform for growth in 2010. Pray tell your engagements for the new year?
