New Features: Managing My Merchants

datePosted on 19:05, March 23rd, 2010 by Jason

We have been busy working on improvements to the ‘My Merchants‘ page. The My Merchants page contains a list of all the merchants that you have used within your units, it’s great for ensuring that you are signed up to the programs. Over the past week we have added a few new features to this page.

You are now able to hide an individual merchants products, which is great if you notice an error in the feed, or if the merchant has been paused due to payment issues. You could even use this feature for split testing between two merchants. To pause a particular merchant, select it by ticking the box, scroll to the bottom, and click on the button marked ‘disable selected’.

Using the same procedure, you are also able to delete all the products in any of your units from the specific merchant. This is great news if a program closes, or if you have been kicked by the merchant off the program, you can easily remove their products.

The last feature which we’ve added is a search feature, by clicking on the merchant name you will be taken to a page which lists all of units containing products from that particular merchant. This is great to replace products from merchants that are closed.

I hope you find these hopeful, as always if you have any further suggestions please fill in the form below or send in a support ticket.

New Pro Feature – Deep links made easy

datePosted on 13:28, March 9th, 2010 by Jason

As you may have read, we have now introduced a search function prior to the creation of units. On top of that for Pro members we have released an exciting new tool for creating your affiliate deep links.

Linking Icon

We realised that not all content needs a content unit, but a text link or image link is what is needed. This new search function enables you to spot products for your articles and pages and then offers you the deep link for the product and the image url too. This makes creating your pages a doddle. No more searching a merchant’s site, and then logging into the network and then finding the program and creating your deeplinks, they’re all available through our search.

Linking options

You can search for a product and apply the same filters as you are used to, by network/merchant/favourites to drill down to find the products you want. Then click on the link icon, and you will then be shown the url for the deeplink, the html to use the link and the image url too all to copy and paste into your content.

Please let us know if you have any comments or suggestions for Easy Content Units.

New Feature – Search for Research

datePosted on 13:14, March 9th, 2010 by Jason

Product Search LinkAt the end of last week, we released a new feature for all, and took it one step further for Pro members. This new development will make it easier for researching product options for your units. For those of you who would rather look to see what’s available before creating a unit, you now can. Useful for researching possible niche sites, you can see what products are available first, before creating the unit.

By clicking on the ‘Product Search’ link, you’ll be able to search for products in our base and see what’s available, if of course you see products you like, you can add them to a new unit, if the opportunity isn’t there, then simply start searching again.

For Pro members we have taking this one step further, and added a really special feature which will help you with your content writing. More about that on another post…
