Abstract: In one embodiment, a search page portal can include two search controls capable of controlling content within a set of customizable merchandizing tiles and product tiles. The merchandizing tiles and product tiles may be interspersed throughout a central region. The merchandizing tiles and product tiles can be populated with webpage content based on user-entered data. In this example, populated webpage content can be selected from multiple databases based on user-entered data.

Abstract: In some implementations, a product category web page includes a middle region with recommend products and topical information. The middle region optionally includes three columns with recommend products in the center column and topical information in the outer columns. In some implementations, the topical information is associated with the product category. The topical information in certain embodiments helps a search engine determine product results for a natural language query and the product results are presented in the product tile array. In one implementation, the product web page is a product specific web page. The product specific web page may include an upper region with a horizontal rotating product carousel. The product carousel optionally permits a user to select and view information relating to products in a product category or products that are related to each other.

Abstract: A web site user interface for an e-commerce retail company allows a user to easily browse or purchase products or services offered by the company. The web site user interface can include a dual horizontal navigation bar including a main navigation bar and subordinate navigation bar. The subordinate navigation bar can be actively and passively customized. Further, the subordinate navigation bar can include product shipment information in a user specific notification pane. The web site user interface can also include a drop-down logo from the dual parent navigation bar where the web page continues to include the drop-down logo as the user scrolls down to focus on web page content. Alternatively, the web site user interface can include a main navigation bar and secondary navigation bar where the main navigation bar includes fewer subcategories of products than the secondary navigation bar.
