4 Discount Shopping

That's a nice bonus Chris :).

Do you use LinkShare for all your data feed sites?
Do all LinkShare merchants offer data feeds or just some of them?


Thanks,

Peter

Right now its all linkshare (and amazon, with 1 befree merchant). But I plan to expand it in the new year. First to Befree and then to CJ. Only some LInkshare merchants have datafeeds.

Here is the watch:

Chris none of the sites in 4discountshopping are loading for me.

Just tried a few and they all worked for me..

That $30k watch, I'd probably want to pay more than $3 for shipping!

Can you elaborate on how the datafeed download works? Is it different for every merchant offering data feed? Does each merchant give you an FTP access to download the feeds or you access the datafeeds through linkshare's interface?


Thanks again,

Peter

Great sale....but that link shows Regular price $32,500, Sale price $87,662, doesn't seem like much of a bargain :eek:

John--

Overstock has an error with their datafeed where the prices are switched.

Peter--

With linkshare its 1 FTP account, all linkshare feeds you get are posted there for you to download.

Thanks Chris

Does it matter too much what you put in your merchandiser application? Can you just say, 'Im starting a shopping network, will build many sites and partner with many different merchants.' ?

I don't know, I didn't put in a merchandiser application.

You must have thought of this, but I'm surprised to see you doing this with the different domains Chris. The engines will see that as nothing more than a link farm of affiliate sites, no? You can get past the bot check but all it would take is a competitor to send them the url of the main site...I am a little over paranoid with my network though.

Why not put it all under the one domain? That would avoid pretty much any risk since even a human would have to see it as nothing more than a unique site.

Its not a link farm, and there is no specific rule against affiliate links.

One unique site would have a harder time getting listed.

Hows it going now anyway?

Its good....
