'Live Green' All Year Round

This year’s Earth Day has come and gone. But that does not mean you can’t continue to live a ‘Green’ lifestyle. To help you continue to do your part for the environment, we at the Shopzilla Publisher Program are making our ‘Live Green’ assets available year round. With so many people trying to be eco-friendly, we think it is the right time to get one of these assets on your website or blog and allow your visitors the opportunity to see what products are available on the web. What’s more, they will be able to compare and find the best prices on the products that suit their lifestyle. There are many different sizes available to choose from, check out the 3 examples below.

You can find these assets in your Shopzilla Publisher Program Portal. Click on the ‘Get Content’ tab, and then ‘Stock Assets’. From there, the assets can be found under the ‘Green Living’ section. If you have any problems finding them please let us know via the ‘Contact Us’ link at the top right of this page.

Mother's Day Assets Available

With Mother’s day fast approaching, we wanted to highlight some of the relevant static banners that we have available for our Publishers to use. This year Mother’s Day falls on May 10, 2009. 

It is not always easy to find the right gift for a parent, and that’s why we have created a special boutique at BizRate.com that gives many great gift suggestions. We have put together some static banners that will allow your site's visitors to easily find the perfect Mother's Day gift. Here are two examples of assets we have available to use.

You can find these beautiful assets in your Shopzilla Publisher Program Portal. Click on the ‘Get Content’ tab, and then ‘Stock Assets’. From there, the assets can be found under the 'Holidays and Special Occasions’ section. If you have any problems finding them please let us know via the Contact Us link at the top right of this page.

Catalog API: New Version Released

We are pleased to announce that the Shopzilla Publisher Program has released a new version of our Catalog API!  The new Catalog API has improved functionality, added features, and is built upon a faster, more scalable infrastructure. 

The existing Catalog API will remain supported through July 1st, but we are encouraging Publishers to migrate to the new Catalog API platform as soon as possible as the old Catalog API platform will be retired July 1st.

Please contact us for the latest documentation, or should you have any questions about your Catalog API migration.

If you are not a current Catalog API user, you may apply for API access.

'Live Green' Assets Available for Earth Day

We here at the Shopzilla Publisher Program embrace the idea of being Eco-friendly and living green. With Earth Day just around the corner (April 22nd), we thought it would be the right time to remind you of our Eco-friendly assets that are currently available. (By Eco-friendly I mean ads that you can use on your site to promote environmentally friendly products rather than ads that can be sent to a recycling plant!). We invite you to use these assets on your website or blog to help promote environmentally friendly products and remind others to ‘Live Green’.

To find a selection of stock banners like the one below, go to Stock Assets and under ‘By Theme’ select ‘Green Living’
