Publisher Tools Spotlight: Product LinkFinder
For Publishers in the LinkShare Network there are many different ways to find product links for the Advertisers you’re partnered with and one way to really zero in on what you’re looking for is Product LinkFinder.
Product LinkFinder is a tool that allows Publishers to search for specific product links using a wide range of parameters. It simplifies and expedites the process of finding and pulling product links and allows you to quickly find tracking links based on product searches.
With Product LinkFinder, you can find targeted products to promote on your website. The Advanced search options allow searches by phrases and sorts results by price, product name or product category. This is a great tool for those Publishers who are focused on specific retail categories or product categories.
Below is the step by step instruction on how to use Product LinkFinder
1. Product LinkFinder is found in the “Links” section of the Publisher Dashboard.
2. Enter the keyword for the item you are looking for and you can decide to either search All your advertisers or a specific advertiser
3. Once you hit Search you will be able to copy and paste the link for the product onto your website
In order to use Product LinkFinder, the Advertiser must be enabled for LinkShare Merchandiser or Individual Products Links enabling them to appear in Product LinkFinder search results.
Product LinkFinder was one of the topics covered in the December 7, 2010 LinkShare Webinar which was recorded and can be viewed at any time. For a more detailed explanation of Product LinkFinder, listen from minutes 02:11 to 04:41 of the Overview of Publisher Tools: Getting Links That Pay!
