Hi all, I have searched on clickbank but all I can find is the HopAd Builder, it's ajavascript widget with a keywords variable. So that can be used to have contextual ads, but I would like to have a web service that can be queried and then with the results I could dynamically create links to the relevant clickbank products from within my text content. Do you know of any way to achieve this? I have asked them, waiting for an answer but I expect the answer to be no, since I have already looked for it in their faq and all around their interface. Cheers, James
I have received the answer, they said no. Not available right now. They have a xml file that you can use to populate your own database and then make up your own contextual system. but that's it.
Anyway if you're interested in what I did (it sure doesn't look so, but oh well..) I have given my code on my forum, I can copy paste it here, but there is no use really if nobody cares about it.. So I use Drupal CMS, and what I do is take page title and any tags/categories. Then remove some small words or words in my blacklist, and then generate a string of this type: keyword1, keyword2, keyword3, etc. This string can then be put in various widgets, such as the one from Clickbank (HopAd Builder) or widgets from amazon and any other which require a list of keywords. That's it really. The problem is that it simply shows related products in a javascript widget, like adsense. I would prefer to act as a infolinks/kontera way, or even better with php making real html links from within the content of the page.. But it's what I'm doing now for clickbank, very simple and I get a few sales, honestly it is not a lot at all compared to the traffic I get, the RPM is still way higher with adsense for the exact same ad placement and size.. The best way would be to do the links directly in the content, via PHP.. I don't feel like doing the whole thing, I know what is involved, it's not that hard, but can't be bothered right now, there are so many things I'm already not doing and I should, so why do this one in particular? Better keep on procrastinating! Here's the url of my forum in case someone wants to avoid wasting his time for the small php code.. http://www.best-reviewer.com/clickb...gs-contextual-ads-affiliate-programs-8366.htm Cheers, James
