iStorez, Personalized Your Own Online Shopping

For the past years, i've been purchasing products online, normally from eBay.com. It is a really interesting experience. Seeing the growth of eBay, i do think that making business online is going to increase my pocket money. Other than trying to sell products in blog, such as Pinkylixiouz and Cherry Parlour, Kriyari, Inc., the creator of a Web 2.0 storefront network, introduced their latest online retailr project, the iStorez, where it provides a unique personalized shopping service.

In the iStorez's homepage, they define that "Think of a glossy magazine featuring 1000s of current deals and trends directly from top brands and stores. only this time it's online, on-demand and one-click away from you. Think of a storefront as an extension of a retails store's website. It is similar to the physical store window displays that you see as you walk through a mall. At iStorez, you can browse 1000s of storefronts from 100s of stores without ever leaving your warm chair and hot cup of coffee. And iStorez always presents the most relevant and newest storefronts based on what you are looking for. "

The main concept behind this iStorez is that it offers an "opt-in, opt-out" shopping services, not only for the seller and also for the shoppers. iStorez offers a wild range of services such as:
iStorez, like the Amazon.com and eBay.com, one thing that differ the iStorez from other online purchasing site is that it allows shoppers and merchants to create and also customize their storefront. Unlike the other online purchasing site, users will use the pre-defined storefront by the site.

Anand Jagannathan, CEO of the Kriyari, Inc., told the reporters that "iStorez combines a 'patent in process' storefront creation engine with Web 2.0 technologies to deliver continually fresh, timely and relevant content for shoppers. What that really means is shoppers no longer have to sign up for email newsletters to find out about promotions, or search their in-box for what's new or hunt across the Internet for special coupons! An added plus is that many of our promotions are exclusive and not generally available on other sites. For those who read in bullets, iStorez gives you:
  • Recency: only see what's current, not last year's trends and expired promotions
  • Relevance: only see what you asked for, not thousands of product listings
  • Personalization: only see content from your favourite stores, not everone's"
