Sort Smarter: Advanced Category Sorting That Converts More Customers

Category Sorting is a key component in the ability to find you're looking for. If sort types are hard to use, or missing, it can result in a customer's inability to find products. This often leads to them abandoning the website - causing you to lose a potential sale. We expanded the default Magento sorting capability by simplifying the sorting process. We also added many new, most frequently used, sort types. These include "price low to high" and "price high to low" functionality. Price sorting is one of the most popular types used by consumers, along with Best Seller and Most Reviewed. After using filters to narrow down a list of products, the customer will often sort them to find the best value. For this reason it is important to have options such as Best Seller, Highest Rated, and Most Reviewed. These will allow the user to make a more educated decision when measuring the product value or quality.

Advanced Category Sorting is a tool to help customers find products easier and faster. It achieves this by extending the Magento product sorting capabilities from the category page.
