ShopWindow Category Tree
From Wiki
Introduction
The ShopWindow category tree was formed in March 2007. This category tree was defined based on market research within the product comparison marketplace.
The ShopWindow category tree is based on a three tier architecture:
This architecture works towards improving usability and ensuring that the "three click" rule is applicable to searches conducted through category selections.
Each Parent is shown in RED
Each Child is shown in BLUE
Each Grandchild is shown in GREEN
With the exception of General Clothing and Dating, the category names that should appear in the feed would either be a Child [ex. Photography] or Grandchild [ex. Cameras].
