Quick Shopping Cart includes a link generator feature that automatically creates links to your store, to a category page, to a specific product page, or to the product search page. You can even include source code in the link for tracking purposes.

To Access the Link Generator

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. In the My Products section, click Quick Shopping Cart.
  3. Click Open next to the Quick Shopping Cart account you want to use.
  4. From the Promotions menu, click Links.
  5. Select the type of link you would like to generate.
    Use Source Code (Optional)
    Source codes (tracking codes) identify the source of a particular visit to your site. For example, if you place a link on another Web site, you can identify any visitors who came to your store from the Web site based on the source code. You can create a link with or without source codes.
    Home Page
    Generates a link to your Quick Shopping Cart home page. Use this link to familiarize with your site from the home page.
    Showcase Product
    Generates a link to a specific product within your catalog. Use this link to familiarize clients with a particular product.
    Showcase Category
    Generates a link to a specific category within your catalog. Use this link to direct clients to a particular category or product.
    Store Search
    Generates a link to a list of items that is produced by a keyword search. For example, if your business sold children's clothes, the search might yield results from "boys shirt." Use this link to familiarize clients with a particular series of products.

A link is created based on the link criteria you defined. You can now add this link to another Web page by copying it directly or providing the exact link to the webmaster for the site from which you want to link.
