ArtFire’s Shop by Color Feature: Redefining How Buyers Browse Online

ArtFire launches Shop by Color Search Feature just in time for the Fourth Quarter.

Tucson, AZ, August 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- ArtFire.com, the premier handmade marketplace, has launched a new feature allowing shoppers to search items on the site based on color. With the Shop by Color feature, customers can sort search results by any color and use keywords to narrow down results to find that one special item.

This feature allows shoppers to browse the site in a much more natural way which can be appealing to customers with little or no experience buying online. Sellers can set an item’s color when listing, or use the site auto scanner to determine the dominate color of the piece. This way, shoppers can search for an item based on keywords and color in a way that is similar to how they shop for items offline.

“Many people can be hesitant about buying something online, and we wanted to change that,” said John Jacobs, President of ArtFire.com. “With Shop by Color, we’re giving customers one of the benefits of shopping offline on an online venue.”

The Shop by Color feature is just another way ArtFire makes shopping handmade easier for customers. This feature can be found under the search link at the top of any page on the site.
