			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.popshops.com" target="_blank">Pop Shops</a> is a great way for affiliates to add individual products to their site quickly and easily in a format that fits the look and feel of your site. AC Lens has both the CJ and SAS product feeds listed in PopShops including sunglasses from each.</p>
<p>This tutorial will describe exactly how to add a limited product set from ACLens.com on your site via Pop Shops.</p>
<p>First, you will need to sign up for an account at <a href="http://www.popshops.com">www.popshops.com</a>. There are several options to choose from but for our purposes, we&#8217;ll use the free version. Once signed up, you&#8217;ll need to make sure your CJ PID and SAS account numbers are entered in their system. To do this, go to &#8220;account&#8221; at the top of the page and scroll down to &#8220;Default Affiliate ID&#8217;s&#8221; where you can then enter that information.</p>
<p>From there, click on &#8220;Dashboard&#8221; at the top of the page where you will now be on the &#8220;create new shops&#8221; page. Click &#8220;Go&#8221; where you will be prompted to enter a shop name &#8211; we&#8217;re using AC Lens as our name.</p>
<p>PopShops will now bring you to a page with all the merchants on their network. In the left hand list, scroll down to &#8220;CJ AC Lens&#8221; or &#8220;SAS ACLens.com&#8221; depending on your network of choice. Clicking on the plus signs will drill down to the product line of choice.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://affiliates.aclens.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/popshopssidebar.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-54  aligncenter" title="ACLens.com Pop Shops Tutorial" src="http://affiliates.aclens.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/popshopssidebar.jpg" alt="ACLens.com Pop Shops Tutorial" width="279" height="282" /></a></p>
<p>Alternatively, you can type in a keyword at the top left side to bring up any product that you may wish to add. For instance, typing in &#8220;<a href="http://www.aclens.com/acuvue.asp">Acuvue Contact Lenses</a>&#8221; would bring up all Acuvue Contact Lenses from ACLens.com.</p>
<p>Once you have your product line, choose the number of rows and columns you&#8217;d like in your product page. We&#8217;re going with a 2&#215;2 list of products from Acuvue. In the center column, click on the &#8220;ADD&#8221; button to put any of those products into your product page.</p>
<p>With all your products added, you can now customize the look of your product page. Click on &#8220;Customize&#8221; at the top middle part of the page. Pop Shops has several different templates which you can choose for your look. Find the one that works best for your situation from the drop down. Click on &#8220;Styles&#8221; to make changes to color, font, add &#8220;No Follow&#8221;, and several other options.</p>
<p>Once you have the look and feel set, click on &#8220;Pop It In&#8221; to copy and paste the code into your site. Here&#8217;s the product page that we designed:</p>
<p><!-- PopShops store code starts here --><br />
<script src="http://shops.popshops.com/shops/c4j4dwgejb33qcki09ekulrsw" type="text/javascript"></script><a id="pspsFoot77098" href="http://www.popshops.com/">PopShops™ affiliate stores</a><br />
<!-- PopShops store code ends here --></p>
<p> <br />
We hope the PopShops tutorial helps you create vibrant, high selling pages.</p>
<p>Please contact us if you have any questions or for more detailed PopShops related issues, contact the PopShops team directly through your account.</p>
<p>Good luck selling!</p>
<p>Bob</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is the first in our ongoing series of educational pieces designed to increase sales for AC Lens affiliate partners. We encourage you to contact us if you have a specific question on this topic. Suggestions for future pieces are greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>One big advantage in an AC Lens partnership is our international capabilities including easy currency conversion. ACLens.com converts currency from USD to British Pounds, Euro&#8217;s, Japanese Yen, and Canadian Dollars. This type of flexibility allows our affiliate partners to promote all over the world in the currency of choice. It works great for sites with international sections and PPC affiliates can easily link right into the currency of the country they&#8217;re promoting.</p>
<p>Converting currency with affiliate links is quick and easy. For the homepage, all that needs to be done is the addition of a parameter at the end of .com. Affiliates would add /default.asp?NCurID=X where X is the currency being used so that the URL now looks like this: http://www.aclens.com/default.asp?NCurID=2.</p>
<p>Product URL&#8217;s are almost the same. Instead of /default.asp, only add &amp;NCurID=X at the end of the URL so that it now looks like this: http://www.aclens.com/displaylens.asp?LensID=148&amp;NCurID=2</p>
<p>Here are the current X value&#8217;s for all of our currencies:</p>
<li>US Dollars- Default, no change needed. If you need to change back to US Dollars, NCurID=1</li>
<li>UK Pounds- NCurID=2</li>
<li>Euro&#8217;s- NCurID=3</li>
<li>Japanese Yen- NCurID=4</li>
<li>Canadian Dollar- NCurID=5</li>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Creating a custom link with Commission Junction and ShareASale.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.aclens.com/default.asp?NCurID=5"></a></p>
<p>Now that we&#8217;ve converted the link to your required currency, you can use that link with CJ or SAS links to track sales.</p>
<p>In CJ, append <em>?url=</em> to a tracking URL and then add the currency converted AC Lens URL at the end. Your link should now look like this (XXXXXX would be your PID):</p>
<p>http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-XXXXXX-10300402?url=http://www.aclens.com/default.asp?NCurID=5</p>
<p>ShareASale affiliates can take any currency converted link and enter it in the custom link creator. Login to your SAS account and click on &#8220;Create A Custom Link To A Page&#8221;. From there, choose ACLens.com from the merchant drop down box and copy the URL, minus http://, into the website line. The link will convert to something similar to this (where XXXXX is your affiliate ID):</p>
<p>http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?u=XXXXX&amp;b=58985&amp;m=7335&amp;afftrack=&amp;urllink=www%2Eaclens%2Ecom%2Fdefault%2Easp%3FNCurID%3D2</p>
<p><span class="BlackH6">Please test all URL&#8217;s when converting to ensure proper tracking. </span><span class="BlackH6">Datafeeds can be converted in exactly the same fashion but prices will not be in the required currency. Contact us if you need a custom currency product datafeed with both URL and Price conversions. </span></p>
