by Rebecca Walker — May 13, 2009—Online building materials manufacturer-wholesaler BuildDirect.com is providing users with a real-time glimpse into the most popular products viewed, sampled, rated, and sold via a new feature live now on the site at builddirect.com.
“With thousands of people interacting with our site on a daily basis, we wanted to find a way to provide users with a method to see what other people liked, sampled, and purchased,” said CEO Jeff Booth.
The current Top Ten section allows users to view data from the current week, past month, past three months and all time. For example, this past week the top selling floor has been the Toklo 8 mm Collection Laminate Flooring, but all time, the most purchased product has been Yanchi Strand Woven Bamboo Flooring.
User ratings indicate people are particularly happy with the Bamboo flooring options. A quick check of the Top Ten highest rated floors of all time shows Bamboo floors in the top 5 positions.
