To maximize your conversion rate and affiliate earnings, we recommend sending traffic to the most relevant design topics on CafePress. For example, if you operate a military themed web site, you may want to link to our military portal http://shop.cafepress.com/military. If you are updating your dachshund blog, you may want to direct users to dachshund related search results http://shop.cafepress.com/dachshunds.
Here is how to configure your CJ links to send traffic to relevant destinations on CafePress. Remember to replace "PID" where it appears in the following linking structures with your CJ PID. For example, if your CJ PID is 123456, you would change the CJ link from http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-PID-10463474 to http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-123456-10463474. Use this example for building affiliate links to any page on CafePress and your affiliate links will perform and track sales correctly. Be sure to add ?URL= between the two portions of the link to create your complete affiliate link. This allows you to link to any page on CafePress by simply pasting the URL you want to link to after ?URL= in the CJ tracking link.
