Glossary

Terms people keep seeing around CNFans spreadsheet searches

Sometimes the hardest part is not the browsing itself. It is the wording people keep using around it. This page tries to keep the language simple.

Taobao spreadsheet

A loose search phrase people use when they are trying to find CNFans-linked Taobao item collections, product shortcuts, and category-based browsing pages.

Category page

A narrower section such as shoes, hoodies, bags, or accessories. Once you know the product type, this is usually easier than scanning a broad sheet.

Quality signals

The clues that help a visitor judge whether a listing deserves more attention, including measurements, image consistency, price positioning, and link freshness.

Curated index

A browsing page that groups listings by category instead of dropping everything into one giant list. It is often easier to use once you know what you want.

Finds page

A page intended for browsing item discoveries rather than reading a long article. The category destinations linked here act in that role.
