Search And Filter Your Products
Based in Lye, Stourbridge: Floors, Flame and Home is a busy flooring business which also offers modern fires and home improvement services.
Their website was slow to update, add new content to, and the calculations were also slow.
The site allows you to put in the dimensions of a room such as the width x length and the site will calculate how many packs of flooring you will need.
The ranges on sale come in different pack sizes, which the site takes into account.
You can also purchase based on for example you want 20 m² or I just want 10 packs. In summary, a buyer can interact in whatever way they want.
When would a filter system start to make sense?
As soon as you get past what makes sense on a page then the idea of filtering the content starts to provide a benefit, perhaps 24 products and upwards especially if that is likely to expand.
If you sell a simple product such as a golf balls and they come in four different qualities and the only real variation is how many boxes people want, that doesn’t require any type of filter on the website.
However some people’s product range is much wider, take flooring such as https://floorsflamehome.co.uk/ they sell a variety of flooring:-
- LVT Glue
- LVT Click
- Laminate
- Real Wood
Which breakdown in a wide range of:-
- Colours
- Thicknesses
- Styles
- Brand Range
- Prices
Clearly the choice becomes bewildering. The solution is a way of searching / filtering the products.
Offers such a solution.
The core idea would work for any product range which comes in a variety of options.
