    Apparently Froogle does not allow affiliates to upload products. I managed to keep my feeds on there for a couple months but they waxed me today.

    Didn't know the don't allow affiliates....sheesh, was getting some good commission off froogle.

    Google search added some of my Amazon affiliate products when Froogle was first introduced. Was quite nice while it lasted!

    Is it prohibited by their TOS, I actually checked it and couldn't find the clause about it?

    I think if they did allow affiliates it would end up a complete mess.

    Kinda sickened they don't though as I have been looking at froogle a bit recently. It looked like an uptapped resource til i read her now that they don't allow affiliates to join in on the fun. Should of read the TOS better i guess.

    I list my own paintings on froogle as well as on my own site, i also have an affiliate program and don't think it would look good for me if my affiliates were selling on froogle also. The main reason for this would be duplicate content on froogle, i sell original art, if some searched for a painting and it brought up more than one identical item it would not look good.
