6.2 Usage examples Placing Stockxpert affiliate ads on your site is easy! You only need your username, a destination address and an ad of your choice. 1. Your username Visits, signups and purchases are tracked by your username, so when you send people over to Stockxpert, you need to tell us where they come from. That means you must link to the site with a parameter called ref. Here's a basic example: http://www.stockxpert.com/?ref=your_user_name This creates a cookie on the potential customer's machine, and if the customer decides to buy something in 30 days, we're both going to be very happy! 2. Destination address Of course, the front page is not the only place where you can send people. You can send them anywhere, for example to your portfolio: ... /browse_image/profile/admin/?ref=your_user_name Or even to specific search results: ... /browse_image/search/text/love/?ref=your_user_name?ref=your_user_name 3. An ad On Stockxpert you can choose from several ad formats. Select the one that suits your site and taste the best.

The best Valentine photos<br /> Only from <a href="http://www.stockxpert.com/browse_image/search/text/valentine/?ref=your_user_name"> Stockxpert.com</a>! Finally, a search form: What's wrong with this?  NEW!!!  Here's how to display your most popular Stockxpert images on your own website: <style type='text/css'> #sxp_tbl { border: 1px solid #F3F3F3; border: 0; } .sxp_img { border: 0; } .sxp_td { padding: 5px; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; font-weight: bold; font-weight: normal; background: #F3F3F3; text-align: center;} .sxp_hea { padding: 3px 5px 3px 5px; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; font-weight: normal; } #sxp_tbl a { color: #888888; text-decoration: underline; } #sxp_tbl a:visited { color: #888888; text-decoration: underline; } #sxp_tbl a:hover { color: #888888; text-decoration: none; } </style> <script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.stockxpert.com/popular.phtml?l=your_user_name&n=5&m=1'></script> As you can see this is a more advanced ad. With the style sheet you can modify almost anything about its appearance. If you omit the &m=1 part the ad delivers the most popular images on the website instead of YOUR most popular images. With the n parameter you can set the number of thumbs to be displayed from 1 to 5 (5 recommended). Feel free to edit the style sheet part to get the most out of the ad! Summary So, as you see placing ads is that easy. Use our buttons or banners (don't forget to download them), or use your imagination to come up with great text ads, add the referrer parameter and that's it! If you're creative, you can make a lot of sales. If you have ideas for new ad types or you came up with something new, please do not hesitate to contact us, because we'd love to hear about it! Thank you, and good luck! Related topics Getting started | Program rules | Payment details
