If you make money on your WordPress blog with LinkShare, Commission Junction, ShareASale, Google Affiliate Network, LinkConnector, or Betty Mills, then try this plug-in.
If you don't know what PopShops is, explore our general FAQ, or read the PC World article which has a good description of what we do. And there's always Wikipedia to tell you what affiliate marketing is if you don't already know.
Q: How much does it cost to use the PopShops WP plug-in?
A: Same as the regular toolset. With a Basic (free) account you get unlimited "Product Pops" (in your posts) and 10 shops (JavaScript). A Pro account ($5.99/mo.) gives you 20 shops with SEO-friendly PHP for your
shops, and nice-to-have filter/preferences for the Product Popper. Pro Unimited gives you unlimited shops with the Pro features.
Q: Why do I need a PopShops account to use this plug-in if it's free?
A: PopShops has an enormous database of (at last count) over 50 million products from almost 2000 merchants and it's growing quickly. It would be impossible to offer this service as a standalone plug-in because of the infrastructure it takes to collect, aggregate, import, and clean up the data feeds. You create a login so you can update your shops dynamically, track
visits, and customize and save your shops.
Q: Why are the affiliate links redirected through PopShops?
A: PopShops uses redirects to track your stats (available in the PopShops dashboard). It also keeps product URLs fresh and landing on the correct page. (Update: Enterprise accounts now have the option to redirect to their own
domain.)
Q: What is an API key?
A: An API key is how your WordPress account can securely access the PopShops shop widgets you've built using this plug-in.
Q: Which merchants are in PopShops?
A: PopShops almost 2000 merchant data feeds with about 50,000,000 products all major networks. For a complete list of active merchants, click here. If you have any special requests, be sure to mail them to us. We're adding more merchants every day.
