I would like to get an affiliate network which can provide me with a standard data feed or web services like amazon! Product addition should not be manually but through the use of data feeds! What affiliate markets do you use? CJ does provide data feeds but for a charge which is too much for a new online store!
www.Shareasale.com has quite a few datafeeds. What types of products are you looking for? Many CJ feeds are free outside the network. Here is a big list of free feeds. Some are Linkshare but most are on CJ. http://www.5staraffiliateprograms.com/IPC-datafeeds.html Hope this helps and best of luck!
Thanks for your reply !Vast range of products....actually havent decided yet. Is there a way how I can get to know if a merchant at CJ offers a feed outside CJ?
No not really. You just need to email them. Actually if you go to the affiliate landing page on their site, some of the more pro-actively managed programs will list their tools, but it can take some digging to find this info.
Many have adviced me CJ but I am not going to stay all day long putting products in my store. OKey I can copy paste html. There are problems if the product is out of stock, product price changed etcetc! I would like an affiliate network which can offer me all the info up to date. For instance sunchy how do you go around the above mentioned problems?
the thing is that you wont know if they have a data feed before you sign up to the program! 90% of them do not offer a data feed from my experience!
