Is there a way to generate links to any pages on CJ advertisers

    I've been using specific links on CJ advertisers for years, but I've really had to search for the specific AID that you can add the ?url=<full url to specific link> and not advertisers allow for specific linking.

    My question, is there a way to automate finding out which advertiser allows for specific linking? I hoped CJ's web services had something but they don't and sometime when looking through an advertiser's links not all text links allow for an alternate or specific link to be added.

    It's like looking for a needle in the haystack! Any help would be appreciated.

    Would data feeds be any use? I've just started using them on one of my sites. I had to contact CJ to ask for the feeds and they email me the new data on a weekly basis.

    Unfortunately @Trisha, nope, I don't think so. The ideal would be to just query CJ's database/web service/API/whatever directly and just ask:

    1. does advertiser x allow for page-specific links?
    2. If Yes, then what's the AID that you can use to auto-create said links.

    don't pay $200 one off fee for this?
