AvantLink Free Tools: Deal Of The Day

Hello Everyone,

Introducing the first ever dynamic Deal Of The Day (DOTD) tool now available in AvantLink!! We all know price drives conversion, and this tool is centered around highly discounted products that auto-update from merchants on a daily basis. DOTD offers are a hot item online right now...so we encourage you to take a look and get this dynamic content added to your site asap. Tis the season and all!

For Affiliates: You can add dynamic on sale product content to your website that changes daily. Note: the RSS option for the Deal Of The Day tool allows you to publish spiderable product information (descriptions). You can also promote RSS subscriptions for this daily deal to your visitors with Affiliate-embedded RSS feeds available from AvantLink.

For Merchants: Move warehouse inventory by discounting and populating your Deal Of The Day queue in AvantLink. By launching an Affiliate program with us, you'll have the option of painlessly providing a daily deal distribution channel through your Affiliate program.

As with all of our network tools, several integration methods are available to Affiliates. Options for publishing the daily deal content include dynamic text, banner and html ads or dynamic RSS feeds. Currently, there are three merchants configured with the DOTD tool. These merchants are Altrec.com Outdoors, ToolKing.com and thaLowdown.com; with ExecStyle.com next in line to launch very soon. I'll update this thread as more merchants go live.

Applications for the Deal Of The Day tool include...
  • Publish dynamic Deal Of The Day html or text ads to your web site
  • Syndicate merchant Deal Of The Day offers using RSS feeds

To use the Deal Of The Day tool follow these steps:
  1. Login to your Affiliate account at AvantLink.com. Click 'Tools' from the main menu. Once in the tool center, under 'Deal Of The Day Tool' select the 'Deal Of The Day Sign-up' link.
  2. Select your website, then the merchant you would like to conifgure the DOTD for. (NOTE: Merchants will only be listed if you're active in their programs)
  3. Select 'Integration Method' and then the 'Get Html' button.

Once again I want to point out that this is the first ever DOTD technology available as an integrated Affiliate network tool. Visit AvantLink.com For more information on the Deal Of The Day tool. If you have any questions post here or feel free to email me.

Sincerely,

Gary & AvantLink

purplebear,

You've been using a static, generalized DOTD version that links to a landing page on the merchant's site.. (i think, anyway...correct me if I'm wrong). This is a dynamic, auto-updating creative that serves product detail info, price savings and more. Much more robust..

Greg, Thanks for your support~!!

This is a great tool I have been hinting at something like this for a while now with the affiliate mangers that I work with but I couldn't explain it right to them.

Yeap, you are correct. I'm just easy to please. lol I was happy with it and it seemed to be working well. So...hope you'll still leave it as an option too I'm still gonna keep using it in the spot it's in. I've placed your newest deal of the day link on a different page with more room for it, with the other savings. Looks very nice. Soon as I get to them I'll place the others on their pages, too.
Thanks for pointing the difference in them out

Is it possible to have Deal Of The Day in horizontal format as well?? The vertical format of the of the Banner that is created does not fit on any of my sites.

Thank you....

Hey kse,

We'll be working on some dynamic banner ads in a couple different dimensions in the coming weeks. I'll update this thread when they're available.

Thanks! Gary M

Dear Gary,

You have shared a fruitful informations thanks for this.

I have one question, I know you must have some solution for my problem.

I am taking Promotional Feed from CJ.It contains Percentage plus price and expiry ,Coupon Codes appended inside DESCRIPTION.

I am facing problem to extract Price from description. Even though I tried RegEx.Ismatch with pattern. but no luck you know why. Because one description contain Percentage + price so It sometime extract Percentage Value. I dont knwo what to do.Suppose

Get up to 50% off at Abc.com outlet with FREE SHIPPING on orders $79

How can I extract percetage and Price value seperately. Any suggestion.

Thanks in advance
