Act1 Interactive was started in May, 1996, by Steve Fazekas, officially in May-June, 1996,
as a design firm and webhosting.
The direction changed to that of e-commerce in early 1999 and
the JavaScript.Pro Shopping Cart was created. The cart was named based on the fact that
the cart code itself is based in JavaScript, while the order / transaction portion was
built in Perl, ASP, or ColdFusion, depending on the application server version to be used.
From that version, we created a database-enabled version we call the ColdFusion version,
based on using
ColdFusion Application Server & code from Macromedia and a database in SQL 2000.
The official progam name is now "The Act1 Interactive Shopping Cart".
Though our main focus is ecommerce, Steve has focused on customized program consulting
in Cold Fusion and SQL.
The consulting focus of Act1 Interactive allows us to tie in many different ideas and
experiences into our core program. This is an advantage because we use learning experiences
from many projects and tie those ideas and successes right back into this program. Not only
does this help us, but it helps you in having the diverse experiences of a consulting background
behind the program & service you will be using for your business!
Beat your competition to death...
The popular theory of a website implementation success is a site that is well-designed and functional,
coupled with a diversely functional shopping cart product and a well-planned marketing program, will
become a very successful site in a very short period of time.
Anyone can produce a shopping cart that looks decent and can take an order, but if your site does not
address your search engine marketing concerns like ours does, you will have problems getting listed
and ranked high in the search engines, especially Google.com, MSN, and AOL.
Our software is specially designed to allow ALL of your pages to be indexed and ranked high
in these search engines, especially the top 1-5 ranks. Our indexing processes also allows your pages
to adjust themselves automatically to allow for the highest rankings possible based on how people find you.
Take our word for it, and we'll guarantee it.
Not only do we take a personal approach to getting your business off the ground and successfully taking
orders in a short amount of time, but we also address any potential issues you may have with your online
business. We cover everything from your product layout, your inventory, your pricing, your taxes,
your shipping, your credit card authorization, and any other fulfillment issues. We cover as much as we
can because you also hire us as a consultant to making your business a success!
