Comments on: First Datafeedr affiliate store set up – on The Green Directory http://www.freshwebz.co.uk/blog/affiliate-marketing/first-datafeedr-affiliate-store-set-up-on-the-green-directory/ The Ups & Downs of an Affiliate Marketeer Wed, 14 Sep 2011 13:05:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: FreshWebz Web Design http://www.freshwebz.co.uk/blog/affiliate-marketing/first-datafeedr-affiliate-store-set-up-on-the-green-directory/comment-page-1/#comment-714 FreshWebz Web Design Thu, 06 Aug 2009 20:57:33 +0000 http://www.freshwebz.co.uk/blog/?p=634#comment-714 Thanks for the info on the Adili problem, will take a look at it now. Unfortunately, I can't use the actual drip feature as I use Heart Internet for my hosting and they don't allow http loopbacks, so you can't run anything on their servers that utilises the pseudo cron job feature of Wordpress. It was very annoying to find this out & it took a lot of work by Eric of Datafeedr to get to the bottom of it, but it is a problem for anyone using Heart. However, I've found a way round it by setting up a real cron job to run wp-cron.php, which is quite easy to do as a scheduled task from the Heart control panel. It's not as customisable as the drip feature, but does the same thing. The shop factory is really easy to use isn't it? The only issues seem to come from the feeds not being populated properly by the retailer! Thanks for the info on the Adili problem, will take a look at it now.

I think provided you keep adding unique content alongside the drip feed then you should be ok in terms of keeping the site ranking etc. PS. There was a post on A4U about Adili a few weeks ago so which may help working towards resolving the issue: http://www.affiliates4u.com/forums/affiliate-window/114466-adili-feed-0-00-a.html Darren Hi
