Static web pages are a thing of the past. Now you can spice up your site with all sorts of handy widgets to capture your customers' interest and help you stand out from the crowd.

Online store widgets are a clever way to extend your e-tailing reach beyond your main website. Widgets can also be a quick way to add social networking features to your online business.

Commerce between friends: the Shopit Facebook App

We have launched our first Facebook application!

The Shopit App gives those of you on Facebook the ability to set up a store on your profile. It is a fully featured store that allows you to:
  1. Add items you want to sell (books, concert tickets, cars...)
  2. Display them on your Facebook profile
  3. Share them with all your FB friends
The store is fully integrated with your Shopit account, so any changes or additions you make to items in your Facebook store are reflected in your Shopit storefront, as well as any widgets you may have posted across the web.



If you already have an account in Facebook, make sure you add our new app! If you don't, sign up and get started!

New and Improved Commercial Viewing

The page to view the latest video commercials added by you, our users, has undergone major improvements. You can now browse lots more videos from more stores more clearly. The search also helps you find commercials by keyword, which proves useful when you have a good idea of what you're trying to find.

We took a tip from Mashable and did a better job of linking each commercial to its store. We also added a display area for that store's top 3 available items. If you want to draw attention to items you're selling, adding a commercial is now an even better way to drive visitors to your store!

The video player itself also got a face lift. We will add more functionality improvements to it within the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned.

"The Latest Thing in eCommerce: You"

Shopit was featured on "The Roizen Report" by Ezra Roizen today. He breaks down the vasts possibilities of the social commerce concept, including some interesting use cases on how consumers may adopt our service in their day to day lives.

Our choice quote:

"Shopit is the ultimate democratization of online shopping: Stores of one. ShopIt enables anyone to create a fully-featured online store. Your store can then be plugged into your blog or social network profile. Today on ShopIt, you can sell anything you’d sell on eBay, sans the fees. Tomorrow, ShopIt will let you sell items you don’t own. It plans to roll out a digital media sales platform, which allows users to sell both their own licensed content as well as over 3 million music tracks and movies. By the end of 2007, it will have launched an affiliate network with big online sites like Amazon. Essentially, you’ll be able to sell just about anything under the sun. Your very own Harrods."

Seeing all kinds of stores light up in the last few weeks sure does make us proud!
