Orthodox Affiliate Program - How To Set Up Affiliate Partner Links

There are many creative ways to use your ArchangelsBooks.com
affiliate partner membership. You may want to link to any of our
specific sections in order to promote certain sections on your
own website. Such as our section on Orthodox icons or you may
want to promote a particular product on your site or even through
your email list.
We hope the following information will help you understand the
flexibility and the many imaginative ways you can use your ArchangelBooks.com
affiliate membership.
Step 1 -
Create your affiliate partner account with your unique affiliate
ID. This ID is assigned by you at sign up and will be used as
a reference whenever you link to the ArchangelsBooks.com website
so that we can track referrals from your website.
Step 2 -
Create website links on your website using your unique
affiliate ID that you created during the sign-up process. That's
all there is to it!
Linking Ideas and Examples
You can link to any specific sections, products of our site or
simply to our home page.
Suggested html code for Text Linking
to our home page:
<a href="http://www.archangelsbooks.com?partner=[Your
Affiliate ID]"><b>Archangels Books &
Gifts</b></a><br>
Orthodox Christian Books, Byzantine Icons, Gifts, Music, Jewelry,
Crosses, Incense, Censers, Candles and Prayer Ropes.
Simply copy the above code replacing the [Your
Affiliate ID] after partner= with your Affiliate Partner
ID (be sure not to include the [ ] when you do so! Just your
actual id).
The resulting textual display should look like this:
Archangels
Books & Gifts
Orthodox Christian Books, Byzantine Icons, Gifts, Music, Jewelry,
Crosses, Incense, Censers, Candles and Prayer Ropes.
Linking to a section on our website:
Linking to particular sections on our website is a very easy
task. You can use this method if you want people to go directly
to a particular section like icons or even just icons of the Theotokos.
Or maybe you want people to go directly to the books we offer
on prayer? Here's how you do it:
- Decide what section you want to link to and identify the
section ID. To identify a particular category or product
section, point to it from the menu on the ArchangelsBooks.com
website. You should see the correct address format in the bottom
left of your browser. All you have to do is make sure you add
the &partner=[Your Affiliate ID]
to the end so we can track your referrals.
- Now make your link(s). Here's some examples:
To link to our icons of the Theotokos you would make a link
like this:
Icons
of the Theotokos The html code for this is:
<a href="http://www.archangelsbooks.com/products.asp?cat=111&partner=[Your
Affiliate ID]">Icons
of the Theotokos</a>
To link to a particular category of products such as our icon
section:
Orthodox
Byzantine Icons The html code for this is:

Linking to a particular product on our website:
Linking to a particular product on our website is also an easy
task and will enable you to promote particular products on your
website to your website visitors.
- Decide what product you want to link to and identify the
product ID. To identify a particular product, point to it
from category or product page on the ArchangelsBooks.com website.
You should see the correct address format in the bottom left
of your browser. All you have to do is make sure you add the
