Review App feature spotlight: Pre-built categories
May 9th, 2008
One cool feature we included in Review App is the ability to add pre-built categories to organize your listings. Say, for example, your website is about places to bungee jump around the world. Instead of typing in a list of world countries or searching online for a list to load via an Excel spreadsheet, just click on the ‘Countries’ pre-built category link and voila - all the world countries will be added to your site. Review App includes other pre-built category lists including US States and the top 100 US metro areas with more lists on the way. If you have a suggestion for a pre-built category list, let us know - we’ll include it in the next revision of Review App!
The best part about adding pre-built categories is that once they’re added you can edit and delete them just as if you had added the categories manually yourself. You can even place your pre-built category list as a subcategory to any of your existing categories. So, for example, if you have categories for the US, Canada, and Mexico you can plop the US States category list under the US category leaving Canada and Mexico as top-level categories. Simple, huh?
We’ve built enough websites ourselves to appreciate the time pre-built categories will save when setting up a new consumer review website - we think you’ll appreciate it as well.
