Multi-store

A multi-store feature enables you to run more than one store from a single nopCommerce installation. This means you can host more than one frontend store on different domains and manage all admin operations from your single administration panel. You can create unique online stores for multiple brands, products, B2B, B2C, affiliates, co-branded stores and more. You can also quickly launch micro-stores for promotional campaigns.

The most convenient feature is that every online store shares a single database: you can share catalog data between stores, and your customers can log-in to all of your stores using the same credentials.

The following features can be set up separately for each store:

• Tax rules per store
• Product prices per store
• Newsletters per store
• Graphical themes per store
• Order filtering and reports per store
• Almost each configuration setting can be set per store

SEO

Search engine optimization is the process of increasing the visibility of a website in search results. Our search engine optimization tool helps you get higher search rankings, meaning more organic traffic going to your store.

Search engine friendly URLs
To make store pages more search engine-friendly, a store owner has full access to keyword tags and customized URLs management sections. nopCommerce also supports product pages with SEO-friendly names out of the box.

Sitemap
There are two popular versions of sitemaps, and nopCommerce supports both of them. An XML sitemap is a structured format of a site that a visitor doesn’t need to see. The sitemap gives information about the pages on site to search engines: their relative importance to each other, and how often they are updated. HTML sitemaps are designed to help users find content on a page. They don’t need to include each subpage. HTML sitemaps help both visitors and search engine bots find pages on the site.

Microdata
Microdata is a specification to embed machine-readable data in HTML documents. Integrating microdata into your website’s code offers a number of potential advantages. First, microdata can give the search engine spiders more context for the type of information on the website and the way the site should be indexed and ranked. Another benefit of microdata is the creation of “rich snippets”, which display more information on search result pages than traditional listings. nopCommerce supports Twitter and Open Graph (Facebook) META tags.

Localizable URLs
nopCommerce allows a store owner to localize URLs. URL localization increases the chance of matching search results in other cultures/languages.

Breadcrumbs
nopCommerce supports breadcrumbs. They ease navigation within the search engine results page, which makes your listing look more attractive and trustworthy. Also, when it comes to huge websites, breadcrumbs can be a great way to help users identify where they are located.

URL Canonicalization
URL canonicalization is used to reduce indexing of duplicated pages and it makes a site more crawlable by setting a store URL to the canonical (preferred) URL for each category and product pages.

Google Analytics integration
nopCommerce is integrated with Google Analytics. The eCommerce transaction tracking tool automatically connects your Google Analytics data with customer transactions.

Tax

Tax features Tax calculations in nopCommerce offer a considerable amount of flexibility to meet your store's legal requirements, your preferences, and expectations of your customers. Store owners can easily manage all settings and details in the administration panel. Tax features list: Configuration of taxes by country, state, zip Individual products can be marked taxable or tax-exempt Tax classes for different products (e.g. goods, services, alcohol, etc.) Some customer groups can be marked as tax exempt The European Union Value Added Tax (EU VAT) support (Company VAT Number) Store owners are able to specify "tax based on" billing/shipping/default/shipping origin address setting Prices can be displayed including or excluding tax Store owners are able to specify whether shipping is taxable Tax automation services integration.

When drop shipping is enabled, each product is assigned to a particular vendor whose details are stored. Once an order is placed, an email is sent to the vendor of each product in the order. The email includes products, quantities, etc. The vendor then ships the item to a customer on behalf of the merchant, who typically pays each of his/her vendors at the end of the month.

Products from multiple independent vendors appear in the common product catalog and your website visitors can shop at one web store even if your products are supplied by hundreds of different vendors from all over the world. Each vendor can be provided with administrator panel access to manage their products, review sales reports and order details regarding their products. Vendors do not interfere with each other’s activity.
