The Search Engine Tracker is a logging module that helps the storeowner understand and quantify a Search Engine marketing campaign or the current status of search engine positioning. Graphs and “sortable” reports make it easy for you to analyze the data being collected about your search engine campaigns. This module separately tracks click-throughs and buy-throughs so you can determine which search engines and paid listing sources are worth the investment.
Key Benefits
Tracks “click-throughs” from all search engines you specify so that you can evaluate which search engines send you the most “click-throughs”
Records search terms that were used to find the store
Tracks “buy-throughs” (also knows as click-through conversions) from all search engines you specify so that you can evaluate which search engines send you the most “buy-throughs”
Tracks keywords that generated the “click-through” and “buy-through” so that you can evaluate which keywords generate the most sales
Tracks Pay-Per-Click source referrals through direct store entries.
You determine which referrals that go into your Miva Merchant store that you want to track. You can track as many as you’d like. (Please see the usage documentation for an explanation of how to configure this option)
Please note: there is no pass-through API for pay-source tracking. Your URLs provided to the pay-source are required to go directly into your Miva Merchant store
Generate Reports for analysis:
Monthly click-through and buy-through graph! At a glance you can see the total number of click-throughs or buy-throughs of each day in the month.
Keyword Summary Report: this report lists the top keywords/phrases and tallies the number of click-throughs and buy-throughs associated with each keyword/phrase. You can sort this data by keyword/phrase.
Engine/Referral Summary Report: this report lists the top referral search engines and tallies the number of click-throughs and buy-throughs coming from each of the top search engines.
Raw Log display: You can view all of the data collected over time and also view the most recent click-throughs and buy-throughs.
*Note: Search engine click-throughs that do not go directly into your Merchant store (i.e. they first go through a non-Merchant page such as index.html) will not be tracked in these statistics as a click-through from a specific search engine unless you use the Pass-Through API. You can set up the JavaScript Pass Through API in your static HTML pages so the Search Engine Tracker will recognize and track all click-throughs, even if the customer first lands on a static HTML page when entering your site.
Example Usage
A storefront that sells cakes and jelly beans online has come to the conclusion that investing in Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a wise investment of his marketing dollars. The storefront owner has decided to invest in increasing his rankings with the search engines by optimizing his site and has even decided he wants to pay for “paid source listings.” However, before he invests in SEO, he wants to make sure that he can track his investment. He wants to know how many Click-throughs and Buy-throughs he is getting from each search engine and he wants to know what key words are drawing in the highest amount of hits. And, since he’s decided to pay for clicks, he definitely wants to be able to track which of the sources are performing the best. Without this date, he’ll never know which of his SEO efforts are the most profitable for him and can’t analyze which ones to keep and which ones to drop.
The Solution: The storefront owner’s need for data to analyze his SEO investment is quickly solved with the Search Engine Tracker. This plug-in module to Miva Merchant allows the storefront owner to track Click-throughs and Buy-throughs in total, by search engine, by (storefront owner-defined) keyword and even allows him to track paid Click-throughs and Buy-throughs. The module graphs out total Click-throughs and Buy-throughs and gives the storefront owner the ability to sort through the data collected by search engine, keyword, and paid listings. And, just in case he wants to track a search engine that isn’t already included in the module, he can add all the search engines he wants to track! It’s a robust tool that gives the storefront owner all sorts of methods to slice and dice and view and analyze SEO data.
This module allows you to configure buy x get x free specials on a product-by-product basis. Simply check a box in admin to enable buy x get x free specials for a product, specify the quantity that must be purchased, the quantity free, and, optionally, a maximum quantity free. Free items appear on all invoices, basket display, etc.
Additionally, you can configure an alternate product to be used for the free product(s). The maximum quantity free and alternate product options allow for a number of scenarios, such as:
Buy 1 or more widgets and receive a free special edition widget poster with your order.
Buy 3 widgets get 1 free. Maximum of 2 free widgets per order.
Unlimited 2 for 1 special on all widgets.
Note: This module is not compatible with the Linkpoint payment gateway because Linkpoint does not allow zero-priced items. If using uncompiled Merchant (4.13 or lower), we can make a minor modification to your Linkpoint payment module to skip zero-priced items when sending the order to Linkpoint.
These OpenUI extension(s) will add an input quantity to the buttons or text on the category screen. This allows your shoppers to add or buy a quantity without having to go to the product screen to enter a number other than quantity of one, add quantity and then checkout. Many steps can be saved by installing this module.
Button images are utilized from the settings in the admin feature of your store, under "Images".

DiscountTrk Lite is our entry-level discount module. It provides the ability to create both volume discounts and buy # get # free discounts. Product prices are updated on the screen as the basket contents change. Discounts are easily created through the standard merchant admin interface or for even quicker discount creation and modification, import and export modules have been included in our DiscountTrk Lite module.

The Buy X Items - Get 1 Free module gives the shopper a discount based on a predetermined qualifying number of items. In Merchant admin, the store owner sets the number of items it requires in order for the lowest priced item to be free. For every increment of that trigger number, an item's value reduces the total sale. For example, if the number is 5 and the customer buys 5, the lowest priced item is free. If the customer buys 10, the lowest two items are free.
When the customer views their basket, the free item discount appears as a separate line item. If they view the basket prior to reaching the trigger level by one, there is a message telling the customer to add one more and the lowest priced item will be free.
In the compiled version you can change the percentage discount from 100% (free) to a lesser discount of the lowest priced items. You also can change the message in the basket from the admin configuration panel. You can specify a list of products which are not figured in the quantity calculation nor are they eligible for the discounting.
The compiled version of this module can use OpenTokens instead of hook points within OpenObjects. The OpenDesigner screen lists the OpenObjects which can replace all or some screens within the OpenUI user interface. The OpenObjects provide a template screen which contains the existing hook points (backward compatibility), OpenToken capability, and the ability to move output around within the OpenObject screen. Since the tokens in this module conform to OpenToken functionality, they may be used in other template type screens.
Reward your customers, track advertising success, and more! Special promotions can boost sales, improve customer loyalty, and provide feedback from catalogs, mailings, and other advertisement distributions. Expand your Miva Merchant storefront's capabilities with our PromoTrk Fulfillment module, a powerfully configurable promotion solution.
An unlimited number of promotions can be set up with a variety of options. Provide fixed and percentage discounts off either specific products, or the entire order total, or simply offer a free product as the promotion. Limit the promotions to customers who meet certain product purchase requirements, order total minimums, etc.
A few of the many possible set-ups include: Buy 5 or more of a specific product, get one (or a different product) free, Purchase $100 or more and receive 15% off your order total, Buy any 10 items and receive 25% off a particular product line, or $5 off any order.
Unlike coupons or other discounts, these "promotions" consist of unique key codes that the customer can enter during checkout. You specify how many times a key code can be redeemed, as well as an expiration date. You can also configure the complexity of the key code, which is based on the promotion's code followed by a random string. For example, a key code with 5 letters and 1 digit might look like PROMO-DJE9XY. All key codes generated are tested to ensure uniqueness, and are automatically exported to a text file. You may also generate additional key codes for a promotion at any time, setting a new expiration date if necessary.
Mailing out 5,000 catalogs? Simply generate 5,000 unique promotion key codes and provide the file to your printer to be included on the mailing labels -- reward your customers while getting feedback on just how effective that catalog was. Going to a trade show? Put promotional codes on your literature or business cards. An ideal solution for stores looking to enhance their marketing strategy.
The Buy X Items - Get 1 Free module gives the shopper a discount basedon a predetermined qualifying number of items. In Merchant admin, the store owner sets the number of items it requires in order for the lowest priced item to be free. For every increment of that trigger number, an item's valuereduces the total sale. For example, if the number is 5 and the customerbuys 5, the lowest priced item is free. If the customer buys 10, the lowest two items are free. The store can exempt specific items and can also make the discount a percentage of the item instead of free. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
When the customer views their basket, the free item discount appears as a separate line item. If they view the basket prior to reaching the trigger level by one, there is a message telling the customer to add one more and the lowest priced item will be free.
You can change the percentage discount from 100% (free) to a lesser discount of the lowest priced items. You also can change the message in the basket from the admin configuration panel.
You can exempt specific product codes from the number of products to be counted and not use them in the discount calculation.
The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed.

Provide a discount based on purchasing X group of products and discount percentage off of Y group of products. Configure a group of X products assigned by category and/or products list required to trigger a discount. The discount percentage is then calculated from a second group of Y products that can also be assigned by category and/or product list. The discount amount displays on the payment info checkout page. Additional configuration options include exclusion of specific products from both X and Y groups of products, discount description and discount percentage. This module is ideal for promoting a primary group/department of products for purchase and providing a discount on a secondary group/department of products.

Easily offer a discount based on the number of items in the basket. In admin, the store owner configures the trigger levels (amount needed to activate the discount) and the corresponding percentage off. The store owner can designate 1 - 4 trigger levels so that he/she can vary the percentage discount based on the number of items. The store owner can even include a list of product codes that will not be used in the calculation. The discount amount will appear during checkout on the screen after the customer has entered their shipping method. This allows Merchant to include (optionally) any miscellaneous fees or coupons redeemed on the Shipping - Payment selection screen.
This module would be used in a store which has similarly priced items, e.g. DVDs. Buy a certain number and get X% off the total bill. Buy a little higher number and get even more off the bill. You would not use it in a store which had $1 items and $100 items because people would buy several $1 items in order to obtain a discount on the $100 item. Granted, you could use the product code exclusion in this module and provide volume discounts on the high priced items with our Volume Pricing module.
MMUI and OpenUI compatible. No editing of mv files required for either user interface. Configuration is setup through Merchant Admin.
The ultimate Miva Merchant autoresponder module - send specialized emails at the completion of the order. These emails are in addition to or in place of the standard emails which are sent at order completion, e.g. merchant notification, customer confirmation, vendor specific notification, and even cell phone emails. It also can send welcome emails when a new customer account is created. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
Features: - Autoresponder - specialized emails at the completion of the order - Merchant notification and customer confirmation - Vendor and product specific templates - Can limit sending based on a specific attribute/option code for a product - Include coupons or promo codes when specific products ordered - Optionally require an input to allow the email, e.g. a response from Addendum - Easy to use checkbox configuration of vertical or horizontal layout emails - Highly configurable free form template layout emails with embedded tokens - HTML or text email formatting - Archive flat file is created for each template, easily track sales activity - Mail Manager Report module can display the flat file contents by time period or product - Ship to, bill to and other email addresses for each template - Send emails to your company's internal departments, e.g. shipping - Emails to web enabled cell phones as abbreviated messages - Open architecture so that other events can also trigger an automated response - Can resend emails when the customer knows and enters their order number and email address - Use render token to send an email from any pagein the store - Send a welcome email before the order completes and optionally include a promo code, customer login and password - Include 3rd party data with module tokens, e.g. Addendum responses - Display shipping and payment invoice messages - Create packing slip and label emails - Ship to country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations - Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon - Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Feature Details. In admin, you create one or more template emails. Eachtemplate can be different, i.e. what it displays, how the data is oriented on the screen/paper, and what product(s) triggers the autoresponder. Most responses are triggered by the product codes purchased. Some example uses:
Email to any of your drop-ship manufacturers listing the Ship To address and the products to be shipped if using real time creditcard authorization. The module will sort out which drop shippergets which emails, including listing the products to be shipped. Unlike some other vendors' drop ship notification modules, this one only includesthe products belonging to the associated drop shipper. Thus a drop shipper doesnot see the products being supplied to the customer by other drop shippers when the order contains multiple product sources. Youcan still use the module if you are not using real time authorization, but you would send the email to your pending mailbox until manual processingverified the charge, then forward to the drop shipper. This would savehand entering the order. In addition to the email, an archive flatfile is created which you can use to easily track sales activity related to each of your drop-ship manufacturers.
Email to Ship To or Bill To or both thanking them for a donation to your sponsored charity on your site.
Email to your shipping department listing Ship To addressand products ordered if using real time credit card authorization. Products section can be cut/folded to result in a shipping label with your company address included. If notusing real time authorization, use the pending mailbox technique similarto the drop shipper scenario above.
Email a promo coupon code if a customer purchases a specificproduct or from a list of products
Email service, warranty, shipping and contact information on specific products or product lines
Send an email to your cell phone's inbox when orders are placed in your store (requires a cell phone plan that assigns an email address to your phone).
You own a mall with multiple stores within the mall. Thosestore owners rent the stores from you for a percentage of their gross. Use mail manager as an audit tool to track theirsales. In addition to the autoresponse email, mail manager produces a flat file with order ID, date, product name, product code, quantity, price for each, and price extended. Periodically retrieve that flat file and import into a spreadsheetfor easy analysis.
The included Mail Manager Report module can display the contents of that flat file through admin. It can filter the report by specific timeperiods (daily, weekly, monthly) within reason. The limits of your PC or server may prevent very lengthy reports for excessively long time periods. It can also limit the report to only one product code. Since the templates canbe designed for each vendor, you can create individual vendor flat files with a corresponding report for each vendor.
Literally, you can have a different autoresponder for everyproduct in your store.
However, Mail Manager has a somewhat open architecture sothat other events can also trigger an automated response. For example:
Send a welcome email before the order completes, but afterthe customer completes the registration process (for those thatcreate an account)
Send a thank you for rating a product (using our Rate This system)along with a coupon code for taking the time to do so
You can use the ifvar script or var token in these "other event" emails. For example, generate a unique coupon code with a module token and insert it in the welcome email to give the new customer an incentive to buy now.
Use a render token to send an email from any page in the store. For example, put it on the product page to send a specific email when a specific product's page is viewed by a customer who is logged in. The email goes to their password recovery address (but could be bill to or ship to address). If you want it sent to a hard coded address, e.g. yours to monitor traffic,you would put your email address in the 3rd parameter of the token. The uses of this feature are endless. Send a coupon to entice customers to buy when they visit specific product screens. Tell them about other products related to the one they just viewed.
As you can see, the uses of this Mail Manager are quite diverse. Some of the variable features configured through admin for each template are:
Show or hide any of the data elements
Orient your email either horizontally or vertically
There is also a free form template using an extensive list of tokens and mini-scripts to customize the emails that are sent at the time of order completion. They can vary from mimics of the standard merchant notification and customer confirmation emails to brief order notifications for better acceptance within cell phone emails. The emails can be plain text or HTML formattedemails for better readability. You can change the fonts, colors,layout and even add images to your confirmation and notificationemails. If your shipping and payment modules are configured withinvoice notices, these can be included in the emails with a token. You can include data from other 3rd party modules, like Addendum, by using tokens. You can also create packing slip and label emails with the "ship to" country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations when using the HTML template. In the free form template you canalso set the time so that it can be offset from the server time,thus display for a different time zone in each of your emails.
Customize your email and store's physical address
Designate email recipient, i.e. Ship To and/or Bill To and/or fixed email address
List full or partial Ship To and/or Bill To address
Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon for their next visit
Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Resend order emails if the customer knows and enters the order number and email which match the actual order. The form for these two data elements can be placed anywhere you can edit the store user interface, e.g. headers, footers, welcome screen.
You can specify the product code and an attribute/option value that must also be met before the email will be sent. This is particularly useful when the emails are used for vendor notification. A certain product might bedrop shipped by two different vendors and the only difference is the selected attribute/option value.
Insert a "require" token that has to be met before the email will be allowed. As example,have a checkbox using Addendum to ask a customer if they want to be added to a list server (mailing list). Then if they check the box, the "yes" response is sent to Mail Manager. The Mail Manager can then generate a specifically formatted email to activate an email address at your list server, if you have one.
Write a different body for each of the email templates you add
List products and prices or just the products without prices
Link the email usage to one or more product codes or entire inventory with wildcard
No need to go to each product to link the email, a copy and paste froma flat text file will add hundreds instantly
I'd be surprised if you find that this capability exists anywhere in any mid-priced shopping cart system. Autoresponders that fill in the blanks are one thing, but this is a store owner, pre-planned autoresponse for a specific product. Within your store, you could have dozens of different responses (individual or grouped) or a wildcard response for all of the products. You can use itto make connections not directly related to sales, yetlinked to a specific sale.
Customer buys a kayak from your store. Tell them about the kayak camp 20 miles from your store and give them the 800number of the guy with the info about a big get together next month.
Customer buys an orchid from you which would lead you to believe he/she may have a specific variety you have been looking for. You autorespond with your want list for your nursery inhopes of finding the needle in a haystack.
As you can see, this list could be endless. Targetted, intelligent autoresponders are designed to increase your store'sbusiness and decrease the amount of time employees spend on sendingout product specific, emails.
The pre-formed templates are easy to configure and do not require programming experience. For the more experienced, you also have the option of using tokens and mini-scripts in free form templates. An example free form template is included with the install documents.
Create and display category listings with assigned products on your storefront. For example, create a "Featured Products" listing and/or a "New Products" listing. Create as many listings as you want and assign as many products to each listing as you want. Each listing uses a preset HTML layout that is created by you. Within your desired HTML you can select from many of the available tokens.
Some of the tokens are: ò %name% - Shows Product Name ò %linked_name% - Shows Product Name Linked ò %code% - Shows Product Code ò %linked_code% - Shows Product Code Linked ò %weight% - Shows Product Weight ò %price% - Shows Product Price ò %cost% - Shows Product Cost ò %savings% - Shows Product Savings ò %desc% - Shows Product Description ò %short_desc% - Shows Short Product Description ò %thumbnail% - Shows Product Thumbnail ò %linked_thumbnail% - Shows Product Thumbnail Linked ò %add2cart% - Shows Add 2 Cart Button ò %add2cartI% - Shows Add 2 Cart Image ò %buy1now% - Shows Buy 1 Now Button ò %buy1nowI% - Shows Buy 1 Now Image ò %url% - Open Product Link Tag

Thumb Wizard is compatible with all Wizard series modules, as well as William Weiland's Inventory Management module.
NOTE: This module will not work with most other third party modules that display changes to the Category Screen. Unfortunately moving the location of the displayed elements also removes the hooks required for other modules.
This OpenUI extension module removes the "Buy One Now" button. It also changes the "Add 1/Buy 1" buttons to a quantity blank and an "Add To Basket" button.
The Miva Corp inventory management system for Merchant 4.0 has resulted in numerous stores having their shelves temporarily cleared. As customers place products in their baskets, the store inventory level is decremented. If the customer decides not to buy at that time and leaves the store, the products in that abandoned basket remain unavailable. When the store owner manually deletes expired baskets in admin, those basket contents are reclaimed and the products are placed back in the store inventory. Stores which have one-of-a-kind or low inventory levels of products are significantly impacted as the products are not available for purchase by other customers until the store is manually restocked. Stores which have high traffic are similarly impacted when many baskets are abandoned. This module eliminates the need for the store owner to manually restock. At a frequency determined by the store owner, this module will reclaim the expired baskets and restock the shelves. This module may not be required in future versions of Miva Merchant as a similar fix has been requested through the Miva Corp wishlist.
This module is for Merchant 4.0 and is compatible with both the MMUI and OpenUI. Editing of mv files is NOT required.
The need for this module readily became apparent after using the Show Baskets module which identified what customers were leaving in abandoned baskets and how frequently they did that.
Compiled: New in the compiled version is an activity log. It accumulates the numbers of baskets which were not converted to orders and have been reclaimed. It also captures the completed order totals. These numbers can be displayed for any time period. See the screen shots below. The information can be useful when evaluating your success at convincing "visitors" to actually buy something. Another useful usage of this tool is monitoring how often and to what extent search engines spider your merchant.mv pages. You will periodically see a glut of abandoned baskets when the restock module runs. You also have the option of the module sending an email to you each time it restocks the shelves. This is useful in identifying problems with your payment gateway as it identifies baskets which were reclaimed, yet had products in them. This is to be expected within reason, but if you see a significant increase, it may be because your payment gateway is down.
Automatically delete expired baskets and restock the inventory with the products that were sequestered in those expired baskets. Emails with Sale Saver feature can notify store owner with summary restocking results and identify customer and product info in abandoned baskets. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.

At a frequency determined by the store owner, this module will reclaim the expired baskets and restock the shelves. When customers visit your store the timer will be checked to determine the last time expired baskets were deleted. If deletion is due, the next customer who clicks to a Miva Merchant PRODUCT screen will launch the shelf restocking routine.

Another useful usage of this tool is monitoring how often and to what extentsearch engines spider your merchant.mvc pages. You will periodically see a glut of abandoned baskets when the restock module runs.
You also have the option of the module sending an email to you each time it restocks the shelves. This is useful in identifying problemswith your payment gateway as it identifies baskets which were reclaimed, yet had products in them. This is to be expected within reason, but if you see a significant increase, it may be because your payment gateway is down.
Included in the email is the Sale Saver feature which displays basket info when the customer info has been filled in AND there are products in the basket. So if the order was not completed, you can see who it was and what they intended on purchasing. It also tells you how far they got into checkout. If they have both the customer info and products, they are considered to have gotten to the OSEL screen. If they also had selected a shipping method, they got to the OPAY screen. In some cases, they may have even gone to pay but the payment failed to update MIVA Merchant. In this case they would also be considered to have reached the OPAY screen.
The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed.
