XsitePro Advanced Features: The Affiliate Wizard and Google Adsense
Wizard
A lot of people
are raving about XsitePro
and what a difference it can make for affiliate
marketers. This
article aims to look at two unique features of XsitePro in a little
more detail, namely the affiliate links wizard and the Google
adsense wizard.
With XsitePro, any link can be added by a simple click of
the mouse, but that is just the tip of the
iceberg. Suppose
you are an affiliate marketer running a number of websites
with different themes and each niche you are marketing to has
a dozen or more affiliate programs for you to
promote. You
could build each of your sites, painstakingly adding each
link manually – heck, if you are clever, you could have even
got all your links saved in a separate text file to paste in
as required. But what if I told you there was a tool that
saved all your affiliate information and could add the links
to your site in two clicks, and if the link needed changing,
it would be instantly updated in all pages you had previously
placed it without having to go through each page
individually?

XsitePro has a
cool little feature called the affiliate wizard. You set up all your affiliate
links (or scripts if necessary) in one central repository using
this wizard, and can also store other information such as affiliate
account details, commission structures, advertiser or promotion
expiry dates and comments about the program. Once your links are set, whatever
site you are working on can have affiliate links added instantly by
right clicking the mouse and selecting from all your current
affiliate programs.
Going off topic for just a moment, another feature unique to
XsitePro (in the sense that it is an inbuilt feature as opposed to
an add on or stand alone feature) is that you are able to set up
redirects, so it is very easy to disguise ugly affiliate URLs and
hide the tell-tale affiliate id’s which can so often put off
potential buyers.
XsitePro also
offers a similar feature for Google Adsense. You can save multiple Google
adsense account id’s within XsitePro (please note – Google
only allows you to have one adsense account, however, you may be
building sites on behalf of others or for several
registered companies owned by you, so it is still a very useful
option). When you want
to include adsense code in your pages, instead of having to visit
Google and go through all the options offered before then copying
and pasting a snippet of code into your site, you simply either
right click the mouse and select ‘insert Google adsense’ or click
on the toolbar button that resembles the Google
logo. You are
then taken to an options menu where you select the account id
you wish to use and select the size, style and color scheme
of the ad you wish to insert. Once you click ‘OK’, a
placeholder is inserted on the page and the adsense ad is
published when you are ready to publish your site.
These are
just a couple of the numerous features that make
XsitePro one of the best tools for creating quality websites in the
shortest possible time and with the least amount of
fuss. Using affiliate links
and Adsense is not only for affiliate marketers - even if you have
a hobby site, it is possible to use affiliate links to help pay for
some of the costs associated with running your site (perhaps your
web host has an affiliate program, or you are already linking to a
product you recommend which you could potentially receive affiliate
income from).
