    Hi,
    Does CJ (Or any other affiliate company) support automatic targeted products?
    Like Adsense target ads for example.

    no u must figure out that, they don't crawl your site and suggest things, plenty of merchants to choose from. You have to do the leg work.

    Well... there's Widgetbucks, kind of - you can choose to display content-targeted ads, using their "MerchSense" option, but I have a feeling it's not very good. Also, people are always moaning about WidgetBucks for various reasons. Also, they are really just pay-per-click ads - if you want actual commission-based product ads, no, I don't know of anything like that...

    This is the biggest weakness of CJ for multi-topic sites, in my opinion. You have to constantly scour their site (and yours) to find correct placements. I love their box that you can automatically shuffle offers into, but you still need to manage the offers down to the very ad that shows up for each merchant.

    If nothing else, they should let you pick a 'stream' from a given merchant and the merchant can update the offers as time goes on (like Amazon does).

    Hi,
    Indeed, Amazon do it and it's nice.

    But the question is if CJ can use products for similar content the page content (meta as well) have?
