How to organize a web catalog
McMaster-Carr boasts over 450,000 products. Their site is a great example of simplicity and usability. The austere design and limited use of images gives it a matter-of-fact look and feel. Be sure to play with it to see how subcategories, listings, and ordering are handled. Yes, it is extreme but I admire their willingness to stay lean.

Great pick! I've always been amazed by the vast assortment McMaster has and the web design is straightforward and easy to use.
