It's a bit expensive. I need a cheaper one.


Nintendo, Don't offer your one as your scripts use some CGI that my server simply doesn't like...

LinkShare MerchandiserTM Program Seens good...

Is it worth the money, the sites it helps produce don't look worth the money.. or am I missing something?

Looks quite spammy too. One of those typical scam things. Though I do like the P.P.P.P.S. at the bottom... :)

i hate these spam apps. I would say build a simple database, and then use the content creatively to create a whack of GOOD pages, not spammy crap. My 2cents.

And where do I get datafeeds from? CJ? Linkshare? ShareASale?

[MarkB]

What kind of feeds are you after?

[incka]

Everykind. I wanna make a price comparision thing.

I got my datafeed source from ABestWeb (http://abw.infopop.cc/eve/ubb.x).

WebMerge seems good for generating HTML pages from datafeed, but the downside is having to upload 1000s of HTML everyday..

Shareasale has them listed in your account area after you log in. You have to apply to them, but they are free.

A friend of mine developed a datafeed tool called the IPC (Instant Page Creator). It generates custom pages kinda like the AWS does I think, plus you can pull a raw feed if you want to use it with another program like webmerge.

Here is a sample National Geographic site I made with a fake ID, in less than a minute when I was beta testing. http://www.5staraffiliateprograms.com/geoIPC.php

Here is the demo so you can play with it and see how it works:

It's availabe for free for about 10 affiliate programs and more merchants are going to start using it soon I think.

Hope this helps and best of luck!

Yes that first one is a spam app, just like traffic hurricane.
Would you be better off coding some affiliate datafeed classes yourself that can be moved between sites?

I've nearly finished an Amazon class with functions like $aws->get_item(54543), $aws->get_price(8776) it would'nt be too hard doing the same with 4-5 other APIs? COde into it exactly what you need and then create your compare price script. It would be very cool!
