Want to make your customer communication interactive? If you like to communicate about your product with your customer, rather than to your customer, then the "Product Questions" extension is the solution for you!
A prospect with questions is a much better bet than an indifferent prospect. Questions are a sign that they not only have some interest in your product but also that they need an assurance that the product can fulfil their needs. Encourage your website visitors to interact with you and find out more about your product. Now you can do precisely that, with Product Questions from aheadWorks Co.
Visitors to your website can ask questions on the product page itself. The store administrator reviews the question and answers it. The question and answer appear together on the same page. This adds value to your website, as the content is driven by customers and not just by you. What’s more, these Q&As (questions and answers) will keep the product page relatively fresh, serve as a magnet for search engine traffic and make it easier for other prospects to make a favourable decision about the product.

About the Developer
This extension was developed by and is supported by aheadWorks
Product Questions by aheadWorks 5 5very great extension i recommend, easy installation, many helps, many thanks! December 29, 2012Product Questions has been updated to v.1.4.2 and is now compatible with Magento 1.6.1.0 November 4, 2011I was going to hire a programmer to develop such feature at my site before I found that it's already exists. Great addon. Worth its price. I've asked aheadworks to install it for me and now it works perfectly April 15, 2011Do NOT buy this extension. I cannot get it to work on my site and aheadworks support will not respond. Unfortunately I bought a number of extensions from them, and most do not work. Very disappointed and I want to save others the same fate. I will be attempting to get my money back. January 25, 2011Not everyone like to use breadcrumbs, so a "Back To Product" button would be helpful. July 27, 20101-5 of 5- Q&A
