With Improved Sorting product sales and ratings will automatically push best sellers to the top. This addon is available in all major web-stores for a good reason :)

Improved usability with new sorting options

Sorting by savings, display name 'Biggest Saving'

Make your special offers and best values visible for customers. All your effort to offer great deals can be for nothing only because customers can’t find them. You may offer great deals, however they don't work your business when customers can't find them.

Sorting by savings option displays products based on the difference between regular price and special price. The bigger the difference - the higher the product is shown in the list. It will be extremely helpful during holidays, as people are used to getting discounts at the time. Customers will just look for a store that has better offers, so take a chance to highlight your specials.

Sorting by the biggest discount percentage

You can sort the products by the highest percentage of discount using ‘Biggest Savings’ ranking option.

Sorting by sales, 'Bestsellers'

When customers have difficulties choosing the product, they tend to search for best sellers. They think, 'If this product is good for many other people, it will be good for me as well'. This is why sort by popularity option helps visibly increase your conversion rate by drawing attention to your webstore bestsellers.

Sorting by product creation date, 'New'

Many site visitors search for the newest, most trendy things. Help them browse the catalog more comfortable by implementing sort by newest option. In this case new products will be shown at the top. This option works especially well for fashion stores, mobile phone stores and other sites of the kind, where people always look for new stylish things.

Sorting by product rating and by the number of reviews, 'Top Rated' and 'Reviews Count'

When shopping, people are looking for product information, which they can trust. There's nothing they will trust more than rating and reviews, as this is feedback provided by their fellow customers.

Sorting by presence in wishlists, 'Now in Wishlists'

Things that other people have or want to have surely attract attention of others. This is especially true during holiday season, when everybody is searching for the best gifts to their friends. 'Now in Wishlists' shows products that are most frequent in wishlists. Customers will be eager to get them and will place more orders faster.

Sorting by the number of item views, 'Most Viewed Products'

Obviously, views are generated a lot faster than orders. With most viewed products option you enable customers to find out what products are more popular even if there are not very many orders in your store yet.

Advanced catalog management features

Manually manage the order of products in Bestsellers and Most Viewed lists
