What is a datafeed?
A datafeed is a text file that includes several pieces of information about our products, separated by commas. It's very similar to an Excel spreadsheet -- one row for each product, and several columns of information.
What do I do with the datafeed?Some technically savvy affiliates might load the datafeed into a database and display product information dynamically. If your website uses a database to store link information, then the following information will be extremely helpful.
What kind of datafeeds are available?Currently there are 2 main FTP feeds available to affiliate partners that are being updated daily.
