phpOStock Due for a BIG Update With More Features Planned!
For those of you who haven't tried out the light version of our phpOStock plugin for WordPress, which is completely FREE, then I recommend you do so today! With the light version you can still try out the plugin and earn commissions from Overstock.com without having to pay a penny.
Currently the OVerstock.com affiliate program is run through Linkshare.com but this will only be the case for the next few weeks or so. At present Overstock.com are in the process of moving their affiliate program through to Comission Junction which I am reliably informed is due to happen at some point this week. During the change over there will obviously be a period where your Linkshare links will remain active whilst Overstock.com 'settle in' over at CJ.com. But what does this mean for phpOStock? Essentially it will mean that eventually the links through to OVerstock.com from Linkshare will no longer work which is why in a way the movement of Overstock to CJ.com is going to be of benefit to you, but why is that?
During the transition myself and Alan Lewis will be working to get the plugin updated in conjunction with the new Overstock links generated through CJ but what we have also decided to do is introduce some really cool updates into the plugin at the same time. The main updates are going to be:
1) Being able to post customer ratings next to products
2) Being able to post customer reviews next to products
3) Having cloaked search engine friendly URL's
4) The introduction of pagination - May come in the next version
I think you'll agree that these are going to be some pretty cool additions to the plugin. In the meantime as I have already said, get the FREE phpOStock Lite plugin and give it a try, afterall what have you got to lose - it's completely FREE!! You can get it here: www.phpOStock.com .
If there is anything in particular you want to see in the plugin, in addition to the things mentioned above, then feel free to comment here or contact me via my support desk.

Sounds and looks great Ben. I just got back from watching your video so I would have a better idea of your plugin. Pretty cool.
I wasn’t going to bother installing until the transition to CJ but it looks pretty simple to change over, especially if it’s just the ID being changed from LinkShare to CJ.
I will give the LITE a go today and see how it looks on my site.
Keep up the great job your doing Ben and thanks
Not sure if I am doing something wrong Ben but I can’t find the OverStock.com affiliate program on LinkShare.com or CJ.
I have accounts with both and did a search for advertiser overstock.com but nothing found.
Is it possible they don’t allow new affiliate until the transition to CJ?
I guess I will put this on hold until later.
Hi James
Thanks for downloading the Lite version, I hope you like it:).
I have just looked myself and they seem to have removed their joining up links from Linkshare. My links and banners are still there but I am already accepted by them of course.
What I’ll do is email the affiliate manager and ask him if it’s due to the change over. I knew it was happening this week but wasn’t informed they would remove themselves from Linkshare.
I’ll get back to you on it.
Cheers
Ben
