YachtWorld Private Label Search Customisation
The YachtWorld.com Private Label Search (PLS) provides yacht brokers with a means to advertise their boats to millions of global visitors to the yachtworld.com website. Devon Design has worked closely with Yacht World to offer a customisation service for the PLS allowing brokers to seamlessly integrate a search facility within their own website without having to maintain multiple databases or enter boat details more than once.
How it works
- You add the details of the boat for sale to Yacht World using Boat Wizard in the normal way;
- We create two files to add to your website that look the same as the rest of your website; one is the search form, and the other is the search results page;
- You create a link to the search form within your existing website. If you do not currently have a website then we can create one for you - have a look at SitePilot and Website Design for more information;
- Your customers can search for boats that you have for sale without having to leave your website.

Examples of Customised PLS in Action
Westways
Westways are a Yeanneau yacht broker based in Plymouth. The owners, Jen & Richard Trafford, wanted a way of displaying the yachts they have for sale without having to duplicate details of these boats. This is a good example of a simple customisation; by default, it displays all the yachts that Westways are offering for sale without having to search for them.

Fairline Approved
This example is a more advanced customisation; it includes the ability to filter the boats for sale based on model, length, age, and price range. With Fairline being an international organisation they also requested that visitors where able to search within worldwide geographic regions, and be able to change the currency of the search results.
Also, unique to Fairline, thumbnail images of the boats is displayed alongside the search results. When a visitor moves their mouse over the thumbnail a larger image is displayed.
