But i want to display only merchants. I say that for each merchants i will give certain percent of contribution to the user so i need to send sid for the merchant request like other sites (onecause.com). Where exactly can i find such infomation. Popshop does not have discussion forums nor support to free affiliation. I know this is not an exact place to post this question but i am just trying in this page that you might answer. thank you. Mr. Admin,

To answer your question, I created and launched my first popshops store a few days ago. My initial push will be organic traffic. I submitted to the search engines, stumbled it, linked to a couple of social bookmarking sites and created a few usfreeads. I'll continue to do this, and probably make a squidoo lense or two for the rest of Feb. In March I plan to do a light test PPC campaign. Ten cent keywords with a low daily ceiling ($4/day). I basically want to see if I can get a conversion. I don't know if it's worth it or not. Once I get a base of conversions I'll know at that time. I think Enterprise is the way to go.. but that's $30/month, and I want to know what kind of action to expect. I'm excited to work on something non-eBay, which could lead to much higher commissions.. and allow me to diversify. My PopShop test also is restrictive in that I'm not promoting any eBay or other affiliates. No Adsense, and I'm sticking to one merchant for now. Once I get a feel of what this is about, I'll slowly expand. I'll keep everyone posted on my progress... or non-progress. Thanks! hanji Hello Dinheiro

I've made a pretty decent profit with it every month. Commissions are slower, but are larger. I usually make 1-2 good sales a month, with 3-4 small sales. I'm researching other niches now, and should be upgrading to the Enterprise account shortly. Thanks! hanji I have one domain using PopShops and promoting it with light PPC on Yahoo.

I still haven't produced any more shops, and CJ sales have been down (EPN has been up on another note), so I need to get on it.

It's $30/month, but is well worth it. I have several domains that are using PopShops. The domain that I started with averages around $100/month after PPC promoting. So that pays for the PopShops account. The commissions from CJ are so much higher than EPN, etc that it's definitely worth pursuing. It's harder to get daily sales though. In my experience, I'll go days and days without sales, then one day.. bam, I get $50, etc. Thanks for commenting! hanji Right now, I’ve since upgraded my account to Enterprise.

It's really encouraging to see that someone has been able to have success with them even in the economic crisis at present. It's also very motivating to get started right away. I've always had that thought in the back of my mind that there's too much competition, that this wont work, etc. Instead of using PopShops, I've used Joomla to build my product catalog website. One thing I like about Joomla is that it's free and there are manyextensions available like photo galleries, polls, forums and more. I have yet to earn a commission so I will definitely be starting a PPC campaign and doing some article marketing. You can check it at www.motorcycle-helmets-online.com When you do PPC campaigns with a product catalog, are you redirecting to the merchant page with the item details? Or are you taking the visitor to your page where they then click through to the merchant page? One of my concerns is that the visitor might get turned off by having to click through so many pages or worse, have to search your website to get to what they are looking for. If you don't mind me asking, how do you pick your niches to promote? Also, CJ doesn't make it apparent as to which of their merchants utilize datafeeds and not to mention that most of the times you have to be accepted by them first. Have you had any success with LinkShare or ShareASale? I have accounts with them also, but I haven't really browsed through their datafeed network yet. Any advice is greatly appreciated and as always, keep up the good posts! Hann Hi Hanji,
