Congratulations, your store has been published!
Now all you have to do is copy the link and implement it into your site.
Now there are 3 ways to do this. You can implement it as a Standalone site, embed it using an inline frame or embed it using a frameset.
I'm not familiar with embedding links or codes into my site(which is something I want to learn) so I just went with the standalone site and that's what I'll show you how to do. Each one of these methods comes with directions on how to do them.
Just select the method you want, in this case I chose the standalone site, and highlight the HTML code. Your Amazon Associates ID is already embedded into the code and this is how Amazon knows who to pay commissions to once a purchase is made. Once you highlight the code, go to your already logged in WordPress for your website and select Appearance then Menus from the navigation page.
Once you pull this page up, you'll see a tab that's entitled Customs Links:
Inside this tab you will find the first field where you will paste the link for your aStore. NOTE: Before you paste your link in the field, delete the "http://" that you see because your link to your aStore will already have this preface. Not doing so will result in a duplicated preface and a broken page will show up when customers click on your store.
In the Link Text field be sure to give your store/menu tab a name then click Add to Menu. Once you add it to your menu, place it in your desired position in your menu list and click Save Menu at either the top or bottom of the page.
What's next? Check out your finished product! How exciting! Here's what my store looks like:
Menu on my site...
Actual store...
As you can see my store has all products relevant to my sites content from supplements to magazine subscriptions as well as the categories that I selected during the set up process.
I'm closing but before I do, on the first page of this training I told you to enable a navigation back to your website in your aStore settings. If you look below the categories portion and at the very bottom of the store beside the Shopping Cart you'll see 2 links entitled Grow Me Supplements. Just by clicking these links, my customers will be able to get right back to my site with no trouble at all.
Now your store is up and your customers can buy directly from your site.
I hope you've enjoyed this training and found it beneficial. If you did, leave me a Like and a Comment to let me know.
All the best,
Brandon
