No one asked for it but I have just implemented a small feature on OzBargain that I think would be very useful for store owners — full RSS feed on deals and comments posted on OzBargain, against the domain name of your store. I think it will be very valuable for store owners/representatives to keep track on what has been posted on OzBargain, especially now it includes all the comments regarding your store as well. Many OzBargain visitors don’t realise that we are not representing the merchants listed here, and many presume that the store owner will read their comments/support questions they posted on OzBargain!! Therefore it might be useful to subscribe to the feed concerning your store so you don’t miss out on all the discussions.

To access the feed for your store, use the following URL:

http://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/<your-domain.com.au>/fullfeed

For example for Catch of the Day, it would be

http://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/catchoftheday.com.au/fullfeed

You’ll see all the comments have title prefixed with “Re: “. See any comment that sparks questions? Any enquiry that has not been replied? Any trolls attempt to confuse others with mis-information (well, you might wish to contact us directly regarding that)? Now you can jump straight in and add your input as the store representative.

OzBargain is a gathering place of consumers and merchants. While I have pretty much been developing this website with shoppers and bargain hunters in mind, I do wish to provide a good online tool to establish communications between shoppers and merchants.
