Need Help with Feed

Submitted by stevenf on Thu, 2009-03-26 10:34 in

Hi,

Just bought and installed Price Tapestry and I've got a link of links to get feeds from here: http://www.pricetapestry.com/node/76

What now? I've never done this compare site stuff before. I know I need as xml file?

I just want to link to products so I can get stuff on the website but don't know where to start in order to get the feed.

Can anyone help me please?

Thanks

Stevenf.

Hi Steven,

First and foremost, have you joined up with the Affiliate Networks with the merchant that you want to feature yet?

If you're in the UK, Affiliate Window is a good place to start, I can take you through everything required to get merchants up and running on your site...

(I think they currently charge a small sign-up fee, but this is credited to your account so once you have earned the minimum payout on-top of that you will receive it back)

Let me know once you're signed up and i'll take you through the next stages - or if you are already with another affiliate network, let me know who and I'll look into it for you!

Cheers,
David.

Hi Steven,

eBay is a slightly different case as they don't supply a datafeed directly - however some users have included eBay products on their Price Tapestry sites by using the API. I can help you with that if you like once you have at least one datafeed being imported because using the API requires a "keyword", which the script gets from the product being displayed...

Cheers,
David.

Hi again Steven,

Would you like me to send you a feed to be getting on with until you are able to access your own so that you can get used to using the script?

Reply to the email I just sent to you if so and i'll get something over to you...

Cheers,
David.
