Most Viewed Products is a convenient way to present to your customers/consumers your most popular products. This control is used to render most viewed products. It can be configured to display the top n products or to display all products. Thumbnail view displays products in a carousel while full view displays products in grid or list. When a web user visits the Product Content page, More Information page, adds an item to the cart, or adds an item to their wish list a most viewed "hit" is recorded.
