Adding Pages To Your Website Using Content Direct

*** Not an affiliate yet? Click here to sign up ***

The process of adding a range of audio books and audiobook categories to your site is not that complicated.

Essentially, you send me certain specifications as to how you would like the layout of your pages to look (see instructions below) and a list of the categories of audiobooks you would like to promote on your site.

I then use this information to generate a set of data files for you with your affiliate ID embedded in all links using Spoken Network's ContentDirect technology. Once these files are created, I'll send you the zipped files and you then extract the files and upload these to your site.

ADDING PAGES TO YOUR SITE USING CONTENT DIRECT

Here is the information you need to send me so I can create audiobook files for your websites using ContentDirect:

=============
MAIN SETTINGS
=============

First Category: This is the main category you want content to be pulled from the Spoken Network database. This can be a broad category (e.g. Business), or a subcategory (e.g. Business > Marketing). To see the full list, please visit www.audiobookone.net and search through the categories menus on the main page and subpages.

Second Category: This is optional. You can specify a second category or subcategory here. For example, you may want to promote "business audiobooks" as your main category, with "self help" titles as additional content for your audiobooks section.

Third Category: This is optional. You can specify a third category or subcategory here.

============================
ADVANCED SETTINGS - OPTIONAL
============================

(To view data generated using ContentDirect so that you can better understand what the settings below mean, visit www.audiobookone.com and click on any of the categories on the menu, then click on an individual audiobook title link, or view the ContentDirect training video).

The advanced setting options include the following elements:

1) Packshot Align

This setting adjusts where on the page the packshots (the product photographs) appear. Your three options are:

- Default (Left)
- Left
- Right

2) Packshot Border

You have two options here - border thickness and color. To set the border thickness, in pixels, select one of the following three options:

- Default (none)
- None
- 1 Pixel
- 2 Pixels

To set the color of the border, specify the hex-value for the color (e.g. #CD3G5R, #FFFFFF, etc ...).

Here's a great site for viewing hex color codes:

3) Include Samples (checkbox)

Please specify whether you want your content pages to provide audio "sample" links beneath the title description of each audiobook.

These samples are, of course, very useful to prospective customers wishing to sample the quality of the audio-book they are viewing, before proceeding to purchase.

4) Title Details Align

Irrespective of the Packshot alignment, you can stipulate whether the Title Text is aligned left or right of screen. You may wish to experiment with this setting until you are happy with the layout.

Your options are:

- Default (Right)
- Left
- Right

5) Title

The title settings let you change the appearance of the audio book title for the generated pages. Please specify:
- your preferred font type (e.g. verdana, arial, etc ...)
- your preferred point-size
- type of heading (from Normal to H7)
- text color
- please indicate whether you would also like to set the title text to Bold and/or Italics and/or Underlined.

6) Title Hover

The title hover color affects the color to which the 'title' link text momentarily changes as the customer's mouse passes over the link. This acts as a highlight, and indicates to the user that they are about to select the highlighted title/details, should they proceed to click this link with their mouse. Please specify the hex-value for the color (e.g. #CD3G5R, #FFFFFF, etc ...) if you would like something other than the default title hover color (#800080 - purple).

7) Info

The "Info" settings are referring to author, narrator, publisher, price. etc. text that will appear on the generated pages. You can specify:
- your preferred font type (e.g. verdana, arial, etc ...)
- your preferred point-size
- type of heading (from Normal to H7)
- text color
- please indicate whether you would also like to set the title text to Bold and/or Italics and/or Underlined.

8) Links

This setting adjusts the color of the other links (besides the title link) that can be found on the generated pages. Please specify the hex-value for the color (e.g. #CD3G5R, #FFFFFF, etc...) if you would like something other than the default title hover color (normal = #0000ff - blue / hover #800080 - purple).

You can also specify the following for the description text that accompanies each audiobook:
- your preferred font type (e.g. verdana, arial, etc ...)
- your preferred point-size
