Thumbs up Affiliate Guild Review of AffiliStore

Okay guys, here's my findings for you on this software ... it's freaking brilliant ... as in the English word for quite nice.

You have to have some knowledge of how a datafeed works. You need to be able to hook up a database and some php/html/chmod abilities. The install was pretty simple if you know these things.

Once the data is pulled in there are certain parameters that there's no way to update, and others that easily can be. It's very important to do the install correctly, otherwise you'll end up re-doing it.

The templates are easy to work with for the most part. It comes with one already there for you. You do have to select it after the install process is over. So, don't panic when you notice there doesn't seem to be styles. The pages it creates are very clean and easy to navigate.

It still needs to be SEO friendly and the biggest bummer is that it doesn't update your feeds automatically. I'm guessing that's what's coming in their paid version ... I hope so.

All-in-all I'd give this a BIG thumbs up.
