Commission Made Easy


I’ve recorded my first sale that’s been made via an Easy Content Unit placed on my Shop Codes site.

A potential ink buyer ignored all my useful, relevant and valid content before their eye settled on the easily intregrated unit that compares prices of related products or brands.

They went on to spend a healthy £71 via the Epson Ink unit pictured below.

Now that I’m currently not adding any new codes to the site this week – just removing all expired content -  these content units may become more integrated.

I’d much rather have these at the foot of pages displaying relevant content to divert users than Adsense.

The design could be improved but the stats say it’s already doing it’s job. The product bought was from Viking and this unit was on the Viking Direct page and so it maybe reinforced that they offer better prices.

Meanwhile, Existem AM have designed and created a stack of units you can use for their merchants. Just grab the code from their blog and replace the id once you’ve signed up at ECU.

  1. “I’d much rather have these at the foot of pages displaying relevant content to divert users than Adsense.”

    Do you think these ads are more relevant because they have pictures instead of text? Is it because you have more control vs. Adsense?

    Thanks in advance for your insights!

  2. taking some time off client stuff next week to work on a “new” site and get the Easy Content Units stuff integrated.

    Keep getting bloody distracted :-(

  3. Jason, they are more relevant as I choose which page they sit on. So I can create a unit around a merchant, brand or type of product.
    There’s no doubt that Adsense generates clicks and revenue but its presence cheapens a site.
    The pictures do help but maybe with text only, it may generate more click-throughs too. They are very flexible, so with time, I may experiment.
