Welcome to Summer At Team Loxly
Thanks to all of you we are having a *great* travel season. I’m impressed that in a downturned economy the affiliate program is still rocking. A few quick notes and then let you get back to your summer fun! And Congratulations to all of you for getting Viator in the Shareasale Top 15!
Datafeed Updated
The monthly Datafeed update has been done, please check to see if the tours you are featuring have been discontinued or if there are new ones for the destination you focus on. Here is the direct link to the Viator affiliate datafeed, be sure to log into Shareasale first.
Deals Database
Instead of coupons we have been focusing on providing deals through the Shareasale deals database, where you can download a file of all of the tours that have short term deals. These deals convert *very* well. The tours in the Deals database are *not* included in the regular database because they have defined end dates and most are short term. The dates are clearly included to help you manage keeping fresh and current deals available.
Coupon Reminder
If you have outdated or customer submitted coupons on your website you need to remove them. Use links from the Deals Database to populate your coupon or specials pages. No, we aren’t handing out coupons (stopped you before you asked! 
) but some sites have coupons posted that they shouldn’t have. This causes customer service issues for both you AND us.
DTM PPC Bidding
If you are asking yourself “What’s that?” you probably aren’t doing it However, if you are marketing Viator via paid advertising in the search engines (PPC) you need to be sure to read the Viator PPC guidelines.
In no case are you allowed to link from a paid search ad directly to Viator. You need to link to a page on your website that has Viator links on it. You are not allowed to make your ad look like you are the official Viator website.
