Category placement
Nov 7th, 2010, 6:50pm
 
Hi there, HELLLLLPPPPPPPP!!!!!  I'm in a bit of a funk as to why only one of my Christmas Cat cards is showing under the category Christmas>Animals/pets>Cats.  Since my store is called Kontinental Kitties, and all I do is cats, I don't understand why this is happening? I title them under Cats or Kitties or both as well as categorize them under cats, and I have several Cat cards for the Christmas holidays, but only 1 shows up when I search from the GCU Home menu. Am I doing something wrong?
Also I noticed that my card #368846 Ice Skating Cats Christmas Card somehow got categorized under "turtles", could someone please correct this and put it into the Christmas>Animals/pets>Cats category where it was supposed to be.  I would appreciate any feedback that I can get.  Thank you.
Sincerely Betty

We'll have the review team move 368846 out of turtles  Huh
 
There are two different topics here, 1. onsite search results and 2. category results.
 
An onsite search for "Christmas Cats" results of 1,792 cards:
http://www.greetingcarduniverse.com/shopping/cb.asp?keyword=Christmas+cats
 
for "Christmas Cats Betty" results in 9 cards, of which 7 are yours:
http://www.greetingcarduniverse.com/shopping/cb.asp?keyword=Christmas+cats+betty
 
Which both lead me to believe that these searches are working effectively.
 
As for category, searching w/in the category Holidays >> Christmas >> Animals / Pets >> Carts for "Betty" results in only 2 cards, which are both yours:
http://www.greetingcarduniverse.com/shopping/cb.asp?cid=2586&keyword=betty
 
So I suspect you have 7 Christmas Cat cards, 5 of which are not in the above named category.
 
How many Christmas Cat cards do you have?  7?  A search within your own storefront on Christmas results in 7.  Correct?  
 
We will make sure these additional 5 cards are in the Holidays >> Christmas >> Animals / Pets >> Cats category replacing the Collections >> Animals / Pets >> Cats to better serve them.

Hello Mindy,  Many Thank Yous for your kind patience and help on my misplaced categorization. I feel so 'dim' when it comes to choosing the most effective categories for my cards.  I guess my particular 'learning curve' is a bit more lengthy than most. Shocked  I'll keep studying to try and get it right.

no need to feel dim....we realize there are so many categories to choose from.  we hope to add some tools to help you find categories more easily.
