Abstract: A third party item listing management system useable for validation of third party items to be included on a retailer website is disclosed. The third party item listing management system includes an application programming interface (API) accessible by a plurality of third parties and configured to receive item data. An item management process receives the item data and calls an item validation pipeline which includes a plurality of item validation stages including an item legalization stage. In the item legalization stage, the item data and the identity of the third party are validated against a plurality of item listing rules to determine whether the one or more items are allowed to be offered via the retailer website by the third party. The item listing rules can include a rule preventing the third party from listing an item included in a core item collection offered by the retailer via the retailer website.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes providing a user interface that allows selection of a product attribute and in the alternative allows selection of a previously defined rule. When a product attribute is selected in the user interface, a rule under construction that describes what products are to appear on a retail webpage is altered based on the selected product attribute. When a previously-defined rule is selected in the user interface, the rule under construction is modified so that the rule under construction uses the selected rule.

Abstract: A third party item listing management system usable for verification of third party items to be included on a retailer website includes an application programming interface and an item verification pipeline. The application programming interface is accessible by a plurality of third parties and is configured to receive item data associated with one or more items. The item verification pipeline is configured to receive the item data and call an item validation pipeline, the item validation pipeline includes a plurality of item validation stages including a field verification. At the field verification stage, data is extracted from at least one of an item image or text associated with the item. The data extracted is compared to item data obtained from an independent verification source to confirm the accuracy of the item data provided by the third party.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes a webpage design server comparing a current date to a start date associated with a version of a webpage and when the current date is after the start date, the webpage design server automatically altering a webpage delivery system so that the version of the webpage is returned by the webpage delivery system when the webpage is requested.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method receives a search phrase from a client device and identifies a category of products that was previously assigned to the search phrase, wherein the category of products was previously assigned to the search phrase based on products selected by previous users who entered the search phrase. Search parameters associated with the category are retrieved and are used to control the content of a search result page that is formed in response to the received search phrase. The search result page is then returned to the client device.

Abstract: A method includes displaying a user interface that includes a date range control and a term input area. A date range is received through the date range control and a term is received through the term input area. Metrics for all search phrases that were submitted to a web site during the date range and that included the term are retrieved. The retrieved metrics are displayed such that retrieved metrics for a plurality of search phrases are shown together.

Abstract: An electronic search evaluation system and method are disclosed. The system includes an application loadable onto a user device including a display and an input, and a server in communication with the user device. The application, when loaded onto the user device, permits the user device to communicate with the server to send to the server baseline and candidate search configurations, and a plurality of search terms, and to receive from the server, baseline and candidate search results for the search terms, and to cause display of the search results on the display. The server configured to receive the search configurations and search terms, identify the search results, compare the search results, and send the search results to the application. The search results sent to the application including a comparison marker to indicate whether the search results are matching.
