Nearly a year ago in June of 2011, we introduced our clients (and essentially the Affiliate marketing world) to AvantMetrics with: AvantMetrics – Affiliate Marketing Analytics

We are pleased to announce that as of today, the AvantMetrics.com website is live! Up until the launch of the site, the only information available for the service was via an info page on AvantLink.com in the “Merchants” seection. But since the service is now available to any online advertiser (not just clients of the AvantLink network) it was the logical next step to build the site, and the stand alone reporting interface on the back-end. Kudos to Flint Creative here in Park City for another great site design! (they also designed AvantLink.com)

Since June of 2011 when we announced the product coming out of BETA, several AvantLink merchants have taken full advantage of the powerful services available with the v1 release of the platform (we actually offer the platform FREE for programs we manage!). Affiliate programs using AvantMetrics v1 have the ability to:

• Manage all third party tracking pixels (using pixel container functionality)
• Apply business rules for shared attribution (based on predefined Affiliate referral groups)
• De-duplicate multi-network commissions (for those using more than one network)
• De-duplicate internal marketing channels (to measure ROI for all marketing channels)

Take a look at the brief Prezi below or visit the website for more information. If you would like to speak with someone about AvantMetrics, and how it can improve your web marketing ROI, drop us a line. Note that discounted rates are available for existing AvantLink clients. Questions or comments encouraged…so please post your thoughts!

Heads up all you affiliates who use Drupal, this post is for you! Recently AvantLink has made an effort to certify third party affiliate marketing tools that can be used with our network. Today, we’re adding another tool to that list! The AvantLinker Drupal module brings all of the functionality of the AvantLink WordPress plugin to those of you using Drupal. Here’s what the AvantLinker description page says:

This project is for affiliates of the AvantLink Affiliate Network. It’s purpose is to give the same functionality as the AvantLink WordPress Add-on developed by AvantLink. The three areas of utility are:

• Affiliate Link Encoder (ALE) which inserts a small amount of JavaScript on the page which allows merchant links to automaticly be rendered as affiliate links. This assumes that the affiliate has a relationship with the merchant.
• Product Search allows the display of a little search form that will yield links, thumbnail images, and product descriptions for the products found. You will get a listing representing products from all the merchants you have signed up with.
• Related Products allows you to pick keywords that when found in your text will produce a “related products” ad in your sidebar.

Whoa! Not too shabby considering this tool is completely free and has been verified by us to track properly. The AvantLinker module is live and available right now through Drupal.org.  Major props to John Powell for the work on this absolutely stellar project.

Just a quick notification that we will be exhibiting at Caesars Palace for Affiliate Summit West 2012. We invite you to come by and find out why Avantlink is the preferred network for top tier Affiliates and web retailers. You may email us as well if you would like to schedule a meeting.

Recently, AvantLink launched the groundbreaking and, frankly, freaking awesome AvantLink App Market. The concept is simple- open our network up to third party developer who have great ideas for affiliate marketing tools, allow them to build those tools, and then make them available to all of the affiliates on our network. Neat, right? We certainly think so. Think “iPhone App Store for affiliate marketing”, except all of the tools in our market are completely free to you!

So, in an effort to keep you up-to-date with the apps that are available, we’ve decided to start this blog series we’re conveniently calling the App Market Tool Profiles! Today, we’ll be looking at one of the applications that was available from day one of the app market’s launch, the Buy Button by VR Interactive.

The Buy Button is a handy widget that allows you to insert a large “Buy Now”  button into a specific page, post, or sidebar spot on your website. Not surprisingly, the button links to any product of your choice by either copy/pasting a product URL from one of your merchants’ websites or by browsing and selecting a product through the Buy Button configuration interface. Configuring and setting up the tool is easy via the app’s button builder, but for you more tech-savvy affiliates, you’re also given the option to use the API for configuration.

Additionally, the BuyButton acts as a price comparison tool on products based on search criteria you’ve specified. Here’s what VR Interactive said about it on their blog:

Likewise, the blogger could highlight a search of products that would fit their post. So, say the blogger is writing about the best type of softshell jacket that a backcountry skier would want, he/she could use BuyBtn to generate the code that would reveal the results of the search. So, it could show numerous jackets from one brand in one attractive window that would open from the Buy Now button. read more..

Where might using the Buy Button be a good idea? Any pages on your website that focus on a particular product are a perfect opportunity to insert the Buy Button. In particular, affiliates who post product reviews could really benefit from having an obvious solution for where to buy the product being reviewed. Check out the Buy Button today in the AvantLink App Market!

Back in October we announced the launch of Affiliate marketing’s first application market, where independent third party developers can submit and monetize Affiliate tools they create using our API.

This is a post to introduce the latest addition to the AvantLink App Market: DealAtATime

With this tool Affiliates can configure dynamic “deal at a time” offers (see screengrab below of configuration screen & widget preview) from their associated AvantLink merchants on their web sites. Color schemes are customizable to fit any site’s look and feel. Click the logo above for more info, or for existing AvantLink Affiliates just login and click “Tools” on the main menu, then “App Market” at the bottom of the page.

Introducing the first Affiliate Marketing App Market…integrated within the AvantLink platform!

So what does this mean? Think platform technology or application software, then apply it to Affiliate marketing tools. Since day one we have offered Affiliates powerful ad technology for FREE, and now we’re taking that one step further by allowing developers from around the world to add functionality to our Affiliate network as a platform (Browse API).

…this encourages innovators to build capabilities within our architecture that will enhance business relationships, provide new technical tools for Affiliate marketers, and in general, continue to add functionality to our platform.

Through the use of the app market, developers will have the opportunity (once approved) to monetize applications, tools, scripts or widgets by participating in the income streams generated by these capabilities. The AvantLink App Market is…

• FREE for developers to build/submit tools, scripts or widgets.
• FREE for Affiliates to use approved tools to generate sales.

Affiliates: For launch, there are two apps available in the AvantLink App Market. More coming soon, and we’ll announce when new tools have been added. To check it out, login and click “Tools” on your main menu, then the “App Market” link at the bottom of the page.

Developers: The AvantLink App Market is structured like any Affiliate program in AvantLink. To see the functionality and read program terms, apply to the program. If you’re not yet active in the AvantLink network as an Affiliate, complete the network application form as first step.

We put together a short Prezi (1:33 @YouTube, nice work Chad!) to better illustrate how the AvantLink App Market works for developers, and for Affiliates. Take a look at that, and follow the links below for more information. As always comments, questions or suggestions encouraged!

• AMNavigator: 3 Good News for Affiliates

We recently had a program manager ask about the best way to handle expired banner campaigns. To give you some context, for historical reporting purposes (and other important reasons), we do not allow program managers to simply “delete” ad units. They can however expire ad units which will effectively remove those ads as options for Affiliates. Check this previous Q&A post or the screencast tutorial below for additional info on Promotion Ad Management.

Program manager asked: What is the best way to be sure that banner promotions do not show on Affiliate web sites after the promo ends?

AvantLink answered: Expiring an ad unit does not necessarily mean the banner will come down off Affiliate web sites. For a best practice to insure there will be no expired banner campaigns out there, review and implement one of the two options below:

1. Make sure to have a set of standard, branded store banners that can be used to overwrite old promotional banners before they get expired. That way you can be sure no expired promo banners show up out there, regardless of whether or not the Affiliate updates the campaign HTML. We serve each banner impression, so any change you make to banners via your management panel will automatically be reflected on any Affiliate site using the banner.
2. Another option is to create blank .gif files that can be used to overwrite expired promo banners. This however immediately creates blank real estate on your Affiliate’s web pages. This option could encourage Affiliates to make a manual update when they see the blank file, but we recommend option one as a better alternative.

Hope this info helps!
