Yahoo! Launches Revamped Shopping Site

05 Nov, 2006, 2:00 pm IST | by Sharon Khare | Windows

Yahoo! has announced the launch of the newly redesigned Yahoo! Shopping site. The site boasts a fresh new look to make it easier for consumers to find and compare products, and a new Bargains Center which aggregates sales, coupons, free shipping offers, rebates and more from across the Internet.

Yahoo! Shopping has also added the integration of Yahoo! Answers, which enables the Yahoo! Shopping community to tap into the experience and advice of other online shoppers to help them make more informed purchasing decisions.



"When we asked people, as part of our research, what they wanted from Yahoo! Shopping, it boiled down to three things: a great deal; learn from other people's experiences before they buy, and find products quickly and easily," said Chris Saito, senior director at Yahoo! Shopping. "Our new Bargains Center, Yahoo! Answers integration, and improved shopping search make it easier than ever for consumers to find the best product at the right price."

A recent Yahoo! study found that 60 percent of Yahoo! Shopping users consider themselves bargain hunters. With the new Yahoo! Shopping Bargains Center, shoppers can easily find all of the gifts they are looking for at the best possible price, without having to visit multiple stores or websites. The Bargains Center is a one-stop shop where users can find sales, coupons, free shipping offers, rebates and more. Consumers can search by merchant, type of product or item popularity to find what they are looking for, as well as search coupons by merchants to find bargains from their favorite brand or retailer. In addition, users of My Yahoo! can add the Popular Products and Deals module available on Yahoo! Shopping to their My Yahoo! page.

Yahoo! Shopping offers consumers comprehensive shopping search with over 70 million product offers and 65 thousand merchants for price comparisons. And with new Yahoo! Search, shortcuts users can quickly access Yahoo! Shopping products, reviews, and coupons directly from Yahoo! Search.
