Magento Commerce is one of the biggest and best ecommerce platforms out there right now. It currently empowers more than 90000 online stores around the world. Armed with everything you need to manage and successfully run an online store, Magento now boasts these amazing numbers:
We just upgraded our stores with Magento Commerce 1.5 and wanted to share the new features that were introduced in the latest update.
The latest update basically doesn’t change the framework and schema of the store a lot which means that upgrading to the new version will not be difficult for your existing stores. The templates, skin and customisation should not break with the new version.
System > Import/Export now has the ability to pick Import or Export and export.
You can then pick what data to export (Products / Customers) and what attributes to filter the data with.
The Order data is now stored in the database and not XML files which means that you can now modify Order State and Status directly through Magento admin
via System > Order Statuses
You can also modify an order address after an order. You can change the Billing Address as well as the Shipping Address using the edit buttons next to the order.
After changing an order address you get a message
“Changing address information will not recalculate shipping, tax or other order amount.â€
The 1.5 Magento Commerce comes with a new Magento Connect Manager Upgrade. The new version is 2.0 of the Magento Connect Manager.
This will show a “the site is not available right now due to maintenance/upgrade messageâ€
The new direct package installation means that you can build your own packages and install them without the extension key.

We are including a lot of Australian attributes to the videos such as GST. The videos will focus primarily on the Australian market and discuss how to open up an online store in Australia. So when you add products, the videos will guide you in case you need to include GST in your pricing or not.
This video explains how to add a simple product to your catalog, what attributes to use, how to use pricing and how to make sure it doesn’t show up in results if you have an option for your customers to buy variations of the product
This video explains how to duplicate a simple product to quickly build your product catalog in a magento commerce e-commerce store
This video shows how to create a configurable product from the Simple Products, how you can manage your variables and offer your customers choice of those products using a configurable product. This also alerts the magento user about what attributes need to be changed to make sure this is a smooth process.
This video deals with how to you set up Up-Sell, Cross-sell and related products options.
Because of bandwidth and support considerations, these videos will only be available for existing e-Commerce clients. Ask us for more info and access by emailing us at info@dzineclub.com

Opening the file
Click on File > Open and pick your file from your computer
Once the file is open select Image > Mode > RGB Colour
Click on Image > Image Size and make sure the resolution is 72 pixels per inch
Click on File > New
Make sure Color Mode is RGB Color and 8 Bit
Make sure resolution is 72 pixels per inch
To resize images click on Image > Image Size and make the appropriate changes in size. Usually Photoshop keeps the proportion standard. So you might not be able to resize a 1000 px by 200px image to 500 px x 150 px. Photoshop does allow you to do it but then the image will be all stretched.
After you have made the appropriate changes, you can then save the image. To save the image, click on
File > Save for Web and Devices
Make sure the image type is JPEG. Adjust the quality between 50 and 70 to get the best results
Click on save and save it to your local folders
Keyword Cannibalisation is a process where your pages don’t get indexed properly by Google because they are similar in content or keywords. So in essence they are fighting with each other to gain rankings on Google and at the end not getting anywhere because Google cannot prioritise and distinguish those pages.
So having more pages with similar content is not necessarily a good thing to lift your ranking. It might be working against you.
Obviously Search Engines don’t want users to build copies of popular content to get higher rankings on websites. Remember Search Engines want the user to have a good experience on the site. Most of the things that Search Engines do is based on the user and not on the website.
Search Engines want to see a good distributed content across the website so that when a visitor jumps from one page to the other, they get good information from the second page.
