RecommenderGhost

RecommenderGhost is discontinued as of May, 1st 2014

This module provides integration with RecommenderGhost.

RecommenderGhost is a free hosted Recommender System that makes integration into websites as simple as integrating Google Analytics. There is no need to setup, run and maintain a Java based server - all complex computations are done on the infrastructure of RecommenderGhost. While tools for recommendations running on your own server, like Recommender API, are great, they lack the sophistication and ease of use of hosted recommendation system providers like RecommenderGhost.

RecommenderGhost provides the following personalization services:

• unpersonalized recommendations of the form "other users also bought/viewed/..."
• personalized recommendation depending on individual preferences
• rankings such as "most bought items", "most viewed..."
• manual clustering of the items (e.g. XMAS SALE 2012)
• using item types (e.g. BOOK, DVD, MP3) for in type-specific recommendations

This package contains 3 modules:

• RecommenderGhost - Core: Tracking page views and providing 2 ready-to-use blocks for recommendations like "Users also viewed..."
• RecommenderGhost - Commerce: Tracking purchases and providing 2 ready-to-use blocks for recommendations like "Users also bought..."
