Create a brand

Brands are important for any retailer, Voracio provides a simple interface to manage your brands. We take into account that a "brand" may actually have different types, by taking this approach we can offer better flexibility throughout the website.

For example, let’s say your website sells musical instruments, recorded music and also books.

Instruments such as guitars, sure, they are relevant to be associated with a ‘brand’ such as Fender, Epiphone, Martin etc

Recorded music however will be better associated with an Artist/Band such as The Beatles, Oasis, Madonna.

Books are likely to be better associated with an ‘author’, such as Stephen King, JK Rowling, Dan Brown.

Hence when you create a brand in Voracio, you select the type of brand: Brand, Artist, Author.

Every product you add to the site will be assigned to a brand at the start of the product creation process.

Hiding the brand text from a product title

There may be some circumstances whereby you want to hide the brand name from the product title. An example might be that you have a range of your own products that are actually unbranded, or may the brand of the product is simply unknown.

In these cases you could simply create a brand, something like, unbranded, and simply tick the checkbox called Hidden from title.

Brand landing page (editorial content)

The brand landing page (with editorial content) for the brand is separated from the brand title itself. Voracio allows you to create brand landing pages, where you can add search engine optimised editorial content for each brand you see fit.
