What are some of the most effective ways to drive sales of Magento extensions?
Hi to all Magento merchants!Hope I can help you to find a way to drive more sales. Before, I would like to highlight some important findings.60% of buyers state that price is the most important factor in purchasing decision.In just 5 minutes, an average online shopper can see more than 50 dealsfrom different websites, thanks to price comparison engines.The majority of all online shoppers (around 90%) invest their time to hunt the best online deals.There are several Magento extensions that help you to increase your sales. To achieve that I would like to recommend you to focus on pricing strategies. As your competitors frequently change its prices and online shoppers are eagerly hunting the best deals, prices should be priority for e-commerce retailers.So, if you are competing in a highly competitive industry and want to stay competitive to keep up your sales in a good shape, I would like to recommend you take a look at one of Magento extension Prisync - competitor price tracking software. (Full disclosure: I work here.)With Prisync;-You can automatically track competitor prices and stock availabilities automatically. By having these data, you can effectively respond every move of your competitor, detect opportunities and adapt your prices frequently.-You’ll be notified via mail when one of your competitor changes its prices. With that instant data, you’ll have a clear vision on market.-Brand/category reports to analyse the current situation of the market and price fluctuations. With that information, you can detect the price changes of competitors for a specific period of time.-With dynamic pricing engine of Prisync, you can set dynamic pricing rules and change your prices automatically, depending on your prices, competitor prices and the ruleset completely defined by you.-Prisync API contains all the data displayed on its web application, notifications and reports so that companies can easily develop custom applications that integrate Prisync data to internal systems and can yield automated pricing or customized notifications etc.Also, you can visit Prisync’s Magento page to get more information and reviews from the actual users.Prisync Magento 1 pagePrisync Magento 2 page
How do I do batch Geocoding and get latitude and longitude data for each address?
Use this site : http://www.freegeocoding.comIts a set of tools I build, that are available for free.You can geocode multiple addresses, either by entering them into an input form, seperated by line breaks or commas, or by uploading a .csv file with your data. It works pretty fast and is very accurate, I have been using them myself for quite some time ( thats why I wrote them in the first place ).
How do I make a vehicle tracking app for my college students to track buses?
As far as I have understood, your requirements are to track buses of your college by using mobile phones which will be present in the buses, am I right?To be tracked the buses needs to have a GPS device which can upload their location to a server(I'll get back to it in a moment). If you're choosing a mobile phone, you can create an app to get location in Longitude and Latitude and upload to the server using APIs. The Server can be created in any backend framework. You can choose to use php+MySQL, Asp .net+MSSQL, Node.js+MongoDB or any other framework of your choice. You need to have an API module which will accepts and replies to POST requests from Mobile app and does CRUD operations on Database.Now the thing which is not clear to me yet is how you're going to display the results? Will you be having a web admin panel or will you be having an admin app or an admin module in the app to get the information?Whatever you choose, you can use free Google Maps API to show the locations as markers and can calculate distance between them using the same API. The lag between the movement of bus and publishing the data on the admin panel would depend upon the network. For faster communication, you can choose to have a direct socket with the server without having any network protocol such as HTTP in between.The second best option would be to use XMPP which is used for real time chat messages (Whatsapp, FB messenger, GTalk etc. uses it), but can be used in any other way whenever fast communication requires. I have used it in a cloud call center app and it worked great. You'll need to have an XMPP server such as OpenFire or Ejabberd deployed on your web-server and will need an XMPP library on your phone. Asmack is a good library for Android while XMPP Framework is more than enough for iOS.In any case you'll need a working web server and need to learn the corresponding programming language. PS: Let me know if you still need more details on any of the term.Happy Coding!

They either identifies the exact location and acquire it at own or do it through IP1 provider. The sites are selected after doing a comprehensive safety assessment of the property.5. If your home / property is suitable for coverage and from RF point of view , these company will approach you. Soem of the IP-1 companies on their website have given facility where you can post your property details.But POINT TO REMEMBER is :None of Access Service Provider or Infrastructure Provider company or its employee seeks any money from you.
