TimeOut switches to Magento
TimeOut has switched to Magento

http://www.timeout.com/shop/

TimeOut traffic stats:

Compete 350,168 monthly US uniques
Quantcast 525,749 monthly US uniques
Alexa rank 5,018

2/3 of TimeOut's traffic is non-US - the total number of global monthly unique visitors is over 1 million.

ZenCart and osCommerce sites couldn't handle that amount of traffic due to the two carts' lack of scalability and sloppy coding.  Magento can handle it.

Re: TimeOut switches to Magento
How difficult is it to switch?  I had to go with osCommerce because my host lacks the necessary PDO_MySQL extention to run Magento.  I'd consider switching if the server is upgraded in the future.

Re: TimeOut switches to Magento
There is an osCommerce import script for Magento.  It still has some bugs though.

Good to know.  So theoretically, if I had another domain name and another hosting account, could my site be 'duplicated' and set up on Magento?  I could have two similar sites on different scripts and play with both??
