Denver, CO (PRWEB) June 17, 2012
Unleaded Group, one of the oldest website design and development agencies in the U.S. and a specialist in building world-class ecommerce online stores, has developed its own exclusive add-on module for the enormously popular Magento ecommerce solution that allows Internet sellers and buyers of automotive parts and accessories to easily filter through thousands of products to meet specific needs.
The Unleaded Make/Model/Year Automotive Filter, or U-MMY module makes its simple for online merchants of auto parts and accessories made for specific car brands, car models, and year made to offer their customers a custom search capability that results in products made to fit their car. For consumers looking for auto parts and accessories this new module on their retailer’s website eliminates the need to pour over parts catalogs looking for just the right part. With just a few clicks, finding air filters, shock absorbers, windshield wipers, tires, spark plugs, and anything else that is made to fit that particular model are presented and ready for check-out.
Magento is the leading ecommerce, online merchandizing software in the world, powering more than 110,000 e-stores globally, including many of the top online shopping destinations in a myriad of industries, such as Tool King, The North Face, T-Mobile, Olympus, OfficeMax, and Schwinn. Even the Obama-Biden Obama For America website for the re-election of President Barack Obama utilizes a Magento platform. Unleaded Group is a Magento Gold Solution Partner, having partnered with Magento in its very early stages, and Unleaded has since built out more than 160 Magento ecommerce websites for giant e-merchants and small online retailers alike.
While Magento is a powerful ecommerce platform capable of handling any size of online merchandizing from product display through to shipping, check-out and follow-up, it is constantly evolving to meet the needs of every type of online shopping experience. In response, the Magento development community has responded by creating many custom modules, or extensions, that streamline highly specific requirements, and Unleaded Group is among the modules leaders. The company has created more than a dozen custom Magento modules like: UIntegratEE, which automatically integrates Magento and the ExpressionEngine content management software; UAutoCoupon, which automatically attaches a coupon to an online customer’s cart; and, UFreeGift, which rewards certain online customers at check-out.
The Unleaded Make/Model/Year extension for Magento is the latest creation, and this copyright module was designed and developed by Unleaded Advanced Solutions Programmer Eric Hainer to meet the highly specialized requirements of parts suppliers where age, make and model define specific parts. Hainer had the automotive parts market in mind when developing the new solution, but he notes that it would easily apply to other market segments with similar attributes, like aircraft and HVAC devices.
For the auto parts merchant, the beauty of the UMMY module is that it will automatically import and assign the often thousands of products involved in that marketplace by SKU number to the Magento platform, eliminating the costly and time-consuming need to enter products and attributes individually. The module will also automatically remove out-of-stock or discontinued merchandize so search results won’t lead to a dead-end.
The U-MMY Automotive Filter is made to integrate seamlessly with the Magento platform, and it is fully capable at download to handle every automobile brand and model for as far back in the manufacturing cycle that a parts distributor requires. So, for instance, if a consumer is looking for headlights for a 2001 Toyota Corolla, they would simply enter the make, model and year into the custom search bar, filter the results for further for “headlights,” and voila, the headlights made to fit that specific car, including OEM and aftermarket manufacturer products, would appear ready for sale.
