Ok, it seems to be in a test phase so you might not see it yourself, but Shopzilla dramatically increased the size of the search box on its site and completely removed the staid browsing experience on those pages.
New…
Old…
Shopzilla owns the URL http://www.shoppingsearch.com (what I originally wanted to call this blog), so it’s nice to see the company is coming to grips with an identity it knew about years ago.
More on Shopzilla in a bit. The company lost its recently hired CMO, Rysa Pinter, a couple weeks back so I caught up with Bill Glass earlier this week. Will write up the post very soon.
The new search treatment is a huge improvement – much more intuitive. I was never a fan of the tabs.
It also seems that the site is loading faster, load times have always been my bigest issue as a Shopzilla user.
Will be interesting to hear about the changes at CMO.
