Getting the most out of Zen Cart
If your hooked on the who’s online page like me you’ll love the Improved Whos Online module . It has and an additional feature that lets you set an automatic refresh page time. So when you click the 30secs button, the page automatically updates every 30 secs. So simple yet so effective.

Selling online is very difficult. It's competitive, pretty much no matter what you sell and it can be expensive to setup (and advertise). You can be selling the best products on the web, but it's pointless unless you get the visitors and they can use your site when they finally get there
