Smart Madness Site update!

Hey guys and gals,

As most of you know we have grown over the last year and now offer the largest inventory of smart car parts and accessories anywhere in the world. We now offer over 570 parts and accessories for the smart and more are on the way every day.

With so many items on our site is was becoming hard to navigate. Some categories had over 20 pages!

We have been working on updating our site over the last month. We added new categories, got rid of some and streamlined the entire site. It should be much easier to find things. We have also been working on updating the search function (still working on it) to make it easier to find a specific item.

As we continue to update the site we will be going through every item, update it and whenever possible we have also reduced the shipping amounts. We are also adding International and Canadian shipping options.

We will continue to work on the site over the next several weeks, but the basic changes are in place now. When you get a chance take a look and let us know what you think.

The site is Smart Madness - smart car parts and accessories

The direct link to the store category please use this link:

Smart Madness - Store Catalog

Thank you again for your support!

Boris

I could be wrong but I think you want to change one word in that sentence.

Website Navigation

Just a suggestion - when you select a Category and it has more than one Results Page (i.e., more than 9 items in the Category) it'd be nice if there was a "Show All" option to display all of the items in that Category on one continuous page. I find it tedious having to select the next page (over and over when there are many items) in order to view all of the items in a Category. Does this make sense?

We have revised the settings and each category now lists up to 50 items per page. Now most categories have only 1-2 pages to look through. This should drastically help out. By doing this we went from 8-10 pages in most cases to 1-2.

Thank you for the suggestion.

We have also added the following sections:

Customer Car Gallery - we started to upload some of the custom smart cars of our customers and will continue to get more up on there. We have about 15-20 more to put up right now and more are coming in.

Customization and Maintenance - We will expand this section to highlight our services for the local customers

Audio Upgrades - This category will also grow over the next several weeks to highlight other audio equipment for the smart.
