How long are cookies after 12.october 2015.

The Traveller

I noted that I had some traffic from cookies after the 12th October recorded but they have long gone now and any traffic is session based only.

To answer your question though there is no cookies after the 12th October.

Hope that helps.

cipeleobuca

can someone explain to me what hapen after 12. october 2015.

The Traveller

I have taken down two sites running this plug-in and am only running it on one site now. This site has over 10,000 products on it and the organic traffic is very low. Ali stats show my bounce rate as 28% which is not encouraging at all.

Hence my taking down of two other sites using the plug-in. I do not intend sending Aliexpress FREE traffic with them getting all the benefit from that traffic that comes from my site.

Yaros as suggested by someone else you should really look at using the power of this plug-in with other merchants who are at least rewarding their affiliates for their efforts.

If AliExpress keep their current mode of reward to affiliates I would hazard a guess sooner or later they will have very few affiliates and this plug-in will be dead in the water.

We of course do not know what you are trying to achieve with Ali behind the scenes as I see you asking affiliates to share their statistics but best wishes for whatever you are doing and look forward to an update as to the success or failure of your discussions with them.

The Traveller

AliExpress stopped their 30 day cookie and went to a session based reward system for affiliates. In essence it simply means if a visitor from your site does not buy at the time they are sent to Aliexpress's but come back a day later you lose that sale.

Win for Aliexpress and a loss for you. This is reflected in your sales figures. You have lost a lot of sales because it is most likely buyers did not buy first time around but went back sometime later.

Hope that helps.

cipeleobuca

yes, you help me. But I'am very disappointed. I sent a mail to aliexpress with my statistic, two days ago. waiting reply!

Does anyone know how to remove the existing social media buttons from the stock Ali theme? I want to use a social mediaplugin and im getting errors in the facebook debugger ( open graph meta data added twice).
I want to change things up and try a new angle on this im sure there are sales to be had just need to think out of the box!

The Traveller

Agreed - if the plug-in is made woocommerce compatible one should be able to use all the features of that as well as other themes than the one Yaros included in the plug-in.

Yaros

No, it is WordPress based.

Hello Yaros -
I see that products appear to have a meta keyword generated from the product title. I have always used All in one SEO pack for sites built with another plugin for Amazon and Woo commerce. I believe it helps with the Google duplicate content penalty, I use a canonical setting to avoid this. If I use this other plugin for SEO does it conflict with Aliplugin? Should I just try and see? Also wondering on the AL3 stylesheet if it is possible to have more than 5 categories across the top menu. I dont want to use up 1 of my 5 licenses to experiment and maybe not actually set up a store. Also to use it on another WP theme and maybe not set up a store. Much thanks, this plugin is a great tool. Oh I almost forgot. Is it possible to automatically remove products that are no longer available. I seem to have much of these. Thank you so much - john

Seems I have a rather good month:

Yaros

Hi,

I have already integrated SEO options from Yost plugin into AliPlugin, however you can use other SEO plugins as well.

It is possible to create a drop down menu on ALI3 theme.

Yes, the plugin can remove products that are not available anymore. There is an option for it in Settings menu.

johnweyer

Hey Legit -
Way to go. Very nice. keep doing what your doing. All organic or social marketing or paid traffic? btw, where is Bais City? nice to see success. wish you well - john

johnweyer

Thank you Yaros

legitsellerusa

Thank you! I am from the Philippines. Currently I have 4 affiliate sites with some social and organic traffic.

Inity

Not a bad month for me also, in fact, it was my best month so far, but only thanks to 11-11. I sold around 107 items that day. After 11-11 I'm back to the old way of selling a few items every other day and sometimes a week without a sale. Oh well, still happy with this plugin

angel777

Inity

armandotop

Question for inity: That is,awesome in making the money you made. Could you share with me what other plugins you are using besides the aliexpress plugin? Thank you...

pramodrimal

Where can i get the activation code for this plugin.

also if i loose my original download, how can i re-download it.

I just made a purchase for alipugin and i don't see any activation code.

The Traveller

You should get an email and in that email it has the activation code. This is what occurred with me.

Yaros

Please check your Skype.

Inity

I don't use any special plugins, I try to use as little as possible as I am on shared hosting.

chyoevil

i just bought aliplugin licence. i've try uploading some product. but i have a problem that product i've post on my website is not redirected to specific aliexpress product that i've choose, but redirected to wholesale aliexpress

iraz

Inity how did you get started with your affiliate site? Could you help some of us out I'm having trouble getting started and getting sales. Also how many sites do you have?

The Traveller

And another one not getting sales with over 10,000 products on the site. Awstats Stats for the month of Nov show 70 unique visitors to the site with no sales. October shows 136 unique visitors with no sales.

Current bounce rate as per AliExpress is 28%

Your Turn:

Yaros

I think you've made something wrong with setting your tracking ids. Feel free to contact me on Skype: yarosnevsky to find out what is wrong.

chyoevil

i've sent you for email, sir.
i notice that i didnt make something wrong with my id setting. i've test connection n it works well

Yaros

AliPlugin ver. 2.9.5 is released. Don't forget to update the tool.

Now you will find two new options on settings: Today‘s Deal and Hot Deal Timer:



If you select Today's Deal option, you will activate a timer for all products with discounted price showing the number of days left on this deal:



It takes data directly from AliExpress and shows exactly the same amount of days like on AliExpress product pages:



The other option, that is called Hot Deal Timer, activates another timer for your product pages, showing that only several hours left to buy a particular item with a discounted price. This timer motivates people to place an order right now, but it does not reflect an actual deal on AliExpress, becuase AliExpress does not have such a timer.



Both these options can be switched on and off, so it's up to you what feature to use or not use them at all.

Some other features available in ver. 2.9.5:

- Out of Stock Products

Now you can visit Products section on your WP admin and see what products are out of stock.

© Copyright 2015. Powered By AliPlugin.com

- Now you can edit or remove this string in the footer of your site.

Swedish Language

- Now the Plugin supports Swedish language.

Inity

Hi Yaros, No matter what I select it does not show Days left. Only TODAYS DEAL Ends in: 3:xx:xx

Also if I go to Products area where do I see Out of Stock items? I know there is a column "Stock" but that was there ages ago and I cannot sort. Am I missing something?

Thx for adding the option to edit the footer

Yaros

I will check on stock function. As for Today's deal, try to activate only Today Deals option and disable Hot deal, then save settings.

CristianDIOR

Thank you very much for the updates!

Any chances to add the Hot Deal Timer to every product?

metaman1

Thanks for the update!
Can't get "Today's Deal" to work as shown (with hot deal disabled), has the same effect with "Hot Deal Timer" and shows the countdown in 4h36 on discounted items.

The Traveller

Appears to work for me okay. Found a product showing 1 day left with other products showing the normal price. Great work around the issue raised previously about the timer.

Many thanks.

Yaros

If you activate Hot Deal Timer it will be applied for all discounted products (most of the items on AliExpress).

Forgot to mention that you need to update all your products first to make these new options work correctly.

hadnow

Is there no option when user selects buy now > it opens new popup? Right now it redirects to aliexpress

Secondly is there any option to add to cart? So multiple products can be added and then final checkout?

Yaros

The main task of an affiliate site is to redirect a user to the main site asap. In my opinion pop-up windows and adding a shopping cart will not bring any benefits and increase your commission.

Seven Tips to Get Succeed with Your AliExpress Affiliate Site

1. Choose the right niche

To get a better idea about what niche to choose go to your AliExpress affiliate account and download ‘Bestselling Products Data Feed’.



Find the products with the highest purchase volume and decide what niche to choose.

2. Upload the right products

AliPlugin has some filters you should play with before adding products to your site. Try to find and import products with a max. possible Purchase Volume and Feedback Score.



Don’t forget to pay attention to a Product Rating as well.



3. Add not more than 20,000 – 25,000 products per site

Even if you have a powerful server with a perfect hosting solution it is not recommended adding more than 25,000 items per site, because of WordPress databases that can slow down your site loading speed.

4. Check how many pages of your site are indexed by Google

One of the advantages of the sites built with AliPlugin is that they usually start generating organic traffic quickly, even if you don't do any promotion work (however it is highly recommended of course). After you complete import using the plugin you get a lot of products on your store. Plenty of products on your site mean a lot of pages which Google starts indexing with the help of so called long tail keywords in product descriptions. As a result you get many pages indexed by Google = more organic traffic = more sales = more commission.
That’s the reason why you should check the number of pages indexed by Google time to time. To find out how many indexed pages your site has, go to Google.com and search for SITE:YOURDOMAIN.COM.



5. Add customers reviews to the products

AliPlugin has an option to add reviews to the products on your site.



Don’t ignore this feature, since these are real reviews taken directly from AliExpress and what is more important these reviews are located on separate AliExpress server that is hidden from Google indexation. It means that when you add these reviews to your site you get some unique content loved by Google.

6. Activate ‘Today’s Deal’ or ‘Hot Deals’ timer



When a potential buyer visits a product page on your affiliate store, he sees a really great price for the item. He also sees an active timer and a strong call-to-action informing him that this is a limited time offer (“Today’s Deal”), and in an hour or two (the timer shows a countdown) the price will be higher.

As a result, the visitor goes to AliExpress being highly motivated to make an urgent purchase – and his motivation is even stronger than before. Ultimately this means that you can multiply the number of purchases made within the first session - and your income grows significantly.

7. Create and connect social pages to your site

Now I am working on an interesting solution – social promo module for AliPlugin. It will auto post your products on major social networks with links to your website, will find other niche related groups, will Like posts and leave comments without your assistance. It will require only one-time setup. The mission of this tool is to provide us with a good source of social media traffic, reducing the dependence from Google organic traffic. I am testing this new tool now and very satisfied with results so far. So, stay tuned!

btw, I called this new plugin 'SocialRabbit'. Logo attached

chickenjoy

The social rabbit functionality would be awesome!

Yaros, I have a question. I downloaded the best selling products data feed and opened it see: Screenshot by Lightshot
Notice the 'click url' column, if I go ahead and promote those links and a visitor purchased product...will that count as commission?
Hope you can get back to me..Thanks

hadnow

The advantage I see with a popup window is that our site still remains in the users browser so the advantage is if they dont like the product they are browsing and close that browser - still your site is visible and they may just browse through to see if any other deals / products are available to their liking.

Kiwigal

I like the way this plugin is evolving.

The Traveller

Greeting ChickenJoy

I use this data feed but only import certain products. I checked this out with Aliepxress affiliate team on Skype and they guaranteed me that any sale made via the link contained in the feed would be attributed to my account.

Further checking was done by seeing if any clicks appeared in the portal. They do and so I can only say that as long as the DF has been downloaded from inside "your" portal you will get any sales derived from any click on a product displayed on your site.

Yaros might like to add to my comment further as he has better ties with Aliexpress than me.

The Traveller

And me Kiwigirl who is shining the Kiwi light in Aussie

chickenjoy

Thank you traveller for your reply.
So this means the 'click url' column I can promote those and if someone purchased via those links then that is counted as commission for my part, correct? Thanks again!

The Traveller

Yes you are correct - see nzwholesale.com - You will see products with a category of Aliexpress Mobile Phone Best Sellers which come from that datafeed.

gottapays

Hi I bought it last year and it is installed but how to upgrade it to latest version ?

Thanks,

Mike

peterperseo

Hi,
before to buy the plugin, I want to subscrive to aliexpress affiliate program, and take a look of the best seller product, just to see which category/niche to select.
But it seems that aliexpress only accept new affiliate only if they have a ready website. But I can't build a website if before I don't know what I'm going to sell, so buy the right domain, etc.
Do you know if there is a way to subscribe without a ready website?

The Traveller

Send me your email via PM and I will send you the bestsellers.csv file to look at. That way you can investigate what niche you may want to choose.

Yaros

Please check: How to update the Plugin |

Actually, you don't need to have a ready site. Just put your Facebook, Twitter url, or any other ACTIVE url.
