or fantasy art, or even a web site of your own?

ads that drive customers to paying web sites? This shop appeals
to an active, devoted niche market who'll sit up and take notice
when your ads for it appear - and we offer a very attractive
20% commission on sales.
You've
got your choice of text
ads and banners - and there are even third party contextual
ads and Cafepress' own Topic AdsTM, for
displaying keyword-based products within your advertisements.
You've got a rich and growing set of native and third party
tools.
Here
are the resources you'll need.
And
here are some that you might want.

commercial software). My Cafepress ShopID is celtic_art_book.

Follow these simple steps to sell the merchandise from Celtic
Art Books on your blog, MySpace page, or from your
own web site: |
| 1.
Sign up for a Cafepress Affiliate Account.
|
| |
It's
free.
When your account is approved, you'll receive an affiliate
account number. It's called a "PID".
You will use this number when adding links to Celtic
Art Books from your own web pages. |
| 2.
Select the text links or banners you'd like to use from
our selection of ads. |
| |
On
my ads
page,
you'll see where to add your PID
number to the link. This ensures that you'll be credited
with any sales you send to this site. |
| 3.
You're done, if you want to be. |
| |
Once
you've placed the text ad or banner on your page, with the
correct link, you're advertising this shop on your web site.
Every time someone visits this shop through your link you'll
make 20% of the retail price of anything they buy here.
And if they come back and buy within 30 days, you still
get paid.
See the Cafepress
Affiliate pages for a full explanation of how
this system works. |
| 4.
But if you want, you can do more. |
| |
If
you have a web site of your own - especially if your site's
dedicated toCeltic art or history, fantasy art, or any related
topic - you should know that third party products like CPShop
make it possible for you to host a version of this shop
right within your own web site. When new products and designs
are added here they will show up automatically in your site's
version of this store.
Your visitors can actually browse all our items without
leaving your web site until the moment they decide
to check out and complete their purchase.
Think about the added value this gives your web site! In
addition to your blog, your news items, and articles, you've
just added a prebuilt online store that visitors will see
as part of your own domain. And you keep getting 20% of
all the sales you generate. |

Remember that the Affiliate Program is administered by Cafepress,
so I'm no good at all for specific questions about your
account. |
