Does anyone have Linkshare and know how to use it well? I'm needing some technical answers on how to use it! I want to put a whole row of bestsellers and new releases on my site like the bookstores do but I'm not sure how!

Hi Juli

We're talking about Rakuten Linkshare, right? They have a deep linking tool - see attached.

Then, when in your WP post/page, create a text link as normal. Make sure you make it "no follow" though.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Claire, I will try this, it may just be what I need! If you've ever been to a bookstore like B&N, the opening page has a best seller string of books and a new release string of books, that's what I'm trying to put on my page, the whole string..images info and all

No problem Juli.

This solution only gives you the deep-link URLs to embed with your affiliate code attached.

If you want images, you may have to get those separately and then use a slider plugin to do what you are describing.

Otherwise, I believe Amazon has a carousel plugin that will do the same but will mean less 'building' your end.

Thanks Claire, a slider plug in may help too. Amazon won't help me though cause I live in a state they won't deal with because of tax laws

Ah, OK, sorry.. that's a shame, Amazon would have been the perfect solution.

I can't recommend a specific plugin for this, but if other websites can do this, then there must be one out there.

Best of luck getting it set up, look forward to seeing it in action :)

taken from a wordpress plugin....you mean something like this to use?

1

no, just how to find and implement the codes for doing things this way, thanks Rosie, but this might come in handy in the future

You're talking about the affiliate network Linkshare, right? Are you wanting to know how to put banners on your site?

1

no, I got the banner part down, it's not available as a regular link to get the whole string directly from the affiliate, kinda like deep linking I'd think

1

Oh ok. I use Linkshare as well for my affiliate links, but I just generally use banners and put them in the sidebar of my posts or I use a word in my posts as an affiliate link. I really don't know much more than that.
