Exclamation Datafeeds for dummies - Learn About Datafeeds

Sorry to be such a newbie and all BUT, does anyone have any book suggestions to learn about datafeeds. I understand what it is, but don't know how to implement or find programs. I don't know enough to ask an intelligent question. I know I need it; I don't know where to start. Help!

Hi Joycee,

Here is a basic article about datafeeds I wrote, so you can start at the beginning.

Datafeed Affiliate Programs - Datafeeds 101 a Beginners Primer
http://www.5staraffiliateprograms.com/datafeed1.html

Here are many of our free datafeeds plus the IPC a tool that lets you create datafeed sites without needing special software or programming skills.

Here is my datafeed resources page with lots of other tools and tips.

Hope this helps and best of luck!

With a little programming, you can do very powerful stuff. So if you have a knack for it, look into learning Perl or PHP.

I just added to the resources above and made this thread a sticky for those that are new to datafeeds and want to learn the basics or discover cool datafeed tools.

I'm lost, too -- I have one affiliate that has datafeeds, and I've set up databases before, but just can't seem to grasp this datafeed opportunity.

Linda, I went through your article and found invaluable knowledge about datafeeds, its uses and kinds. I am new to AM and still don’t know many concepts. Can you give me another link for understanding conversion rates?
