I seem to have two accounts at LS or something. When I get links some have one affiliate number in them and some have a different affiliate number in them.

Why does this happen?

LinkShare Mobile Dashboard

We’re all constantly on-the-go. As an Affiliate, an Advertiser promotion could be short-lived. Every minute counts.

Chances are that you always have your mobile device. What if there was a way to see the latest promotions on your mobile device, and share with your customers ASAP?

The LinkShare Mobile Dashboard is a mobile website that you could use to get product and coupon links, then share via email or your social marketing channels.

Advertiser Tip of the Week
New Enhancements to Executive Reports


Last month we introduced a great new reporting feature called Executive Reports. Accessible from the main menu of the Advertiser Dashboard, Executive Reports are similar to quick stats on the Home Page but they give you a view into even more data points including order active Publishers, non-commissionable sales, and cancellations.

This month we’ve added even more charts to help you stay in tune with the Publishers that are driving revenue for your program. Read more about these new features on our LinkShare blog!

I've been meaning to ask about this. I checked this out a couple of months ago and for End Dates you have:

BLANK 11 2011
BLANK 02 2011
BLANK 28 2011
BLANK 16 2011

What does blank mean? The number after that I've seen numbers from 1 -31 which would seem like days of the month but then coupons don't usually end on the 2nd, 11th, 28th etc.

Tip of the week: Mac Widget 2.0


The 2.0 version of the Mac Widget makes searching and creating deep links easier. Publishers can use the 2.0 version of our Mac Widget to do three things:

1. Search for product links
2. Create deep links
3. Pull the latests coupons and offers

When pulling coupons and deals , you have the option to search by Advertiser, Advertiser Category, Promotion Type, and Network. All you have to do is install the widget and input your token.

The widget will ONLY display Advertisers whose programs you are approved into. So if you want to work with a particular Advertiser make sure you are partnered with them first.

We hope this decreases clutter and improves your productivity! You can download the widget here.

Check out the LinkShare Bento Box for more LinkShare applications.

LinkShare Tip of the Week - skimlinks



Skimlinks is a Publisher service that automatically recognizes links to Advertiser pages on a website and converts them into affiliate tracking links, on-the-fly! They use the Automated LinkGenerator API to convert Advertiser URL’s to affiliate tracking links.

The Automated LinkGenerator is a Web service that creates LinkShare click links for any product on an advertiser’s site. It is only available from those advertisers who offer the Deep Links feature on their Links menu. Automated LinkGenerator provides the same functionality as Deep Links—it allows a publisher to browse an advertiser’s site for a particular product. But with Automated LinkGenerator you don’t have to log on to the Publisher Dashboard to get links.

Sign up for skimlinks and check out our Publisher Help Center to read more about other tools and APIs including Automated LinkGenerator.

Tip of the Week: Advertiser Mobile Status

Do your Advertiser have a mobile site? Does LinkShare tracking work from a mobile device? Find out by checking the Advertiser Mobile Status table. You can quickly see which Advertisers are enabled for which mobile features.

The Advertiser Mobile Status table includes all the Advertisers in LinkShare’s mobile database. To view only the Advertisers that you are partnered with, enter your Web Service token in the field above the table.

* Click on the column headings to sort your results.
* Use the search box to search for Advertisers by name.
* To see how a mobile site looks on an iPhone, click on the row of any mobile-enabled Advertiser. Please note: You must install a user agent switch to use this feature, or you may see a page meant for desktop browsing.
* To see how a mobile site looks on an iPhone, click on the row of any mobile-enabled Advertiser. Please note: You must install a user agent switch to use this feature, or you may see a page meant for desktop browsing. For instructions on doing this, please see this article.

We’re continuously adding Advertisers to our database, so check back often!
