Two-Minute Tutorial: How to Insert a Banner

It's easy to add a banner to your web site. We've automated most of the task for you -- including automatically adding your affiliate id to the banner, so you can start tracking your sales immediately.

You can have a banner up and running on your site -- and converting more visitors into paid customers -- in less than two minutes.

Here's How it Works

We've taken the necessary 'copy and paste' function that you're familiar with from most computer programs, and automated it. This means that you can now add the HTML code for our banners to your web site with only three very simple steps.

  • Step One: Copy the code for the banner you want to add
  • Step Two: Prepare your site for inserting the code
  • Step Three: Paste the code into your site
  • Step Four: Replace the "xxxxxx" with your affiliate nickname (ClickBank nickname) in:
    http://xxxxxx.geyi138.hop.clickbank.net

You don't have to be able to work in HTML, or even understand it. If you can type, you can add a banner!

What you Need to Know

The only thing you need to be able to do is set up your web editing software so that it shows you both your web page as it actually appears PLUS the underlying HTML code.

All of the major web editing tools -- including FrontPage, DreamWeaver and GoLive -- have the ability to do this with just the click of a button. Consult your program's online help if you're not sure.


Detailed Instructions:

Before you start, you need to decide where on your site you want to place your banner. Make sure it's somewhere where it will get noticed quickly.

When you pick the page, open it in your web editing software. You're now ready to insert a banner.

Step One: Copy the code for the banner you want to add
Once you've decided where you want to place your banner, you:

  1. Go to the banner you want on the ChineseFoodDIY affiliate center page.
  2. Highlight the text in the text area. (To highlight: click the mouse button in the text area. Select Edit > Select All from your web browser's main menu. The text in the text area will be highlighted.)
  3. Select Edit > Copy from your web browser's main menu. The code for the banner is copied to your clipboard.

Step Two: Prepare your web site to paste the code
With the code for the banner copied to your clipboard, you:

  1. Return to the web page you've already opened in your web editing software, and place your cursor in the body of the web page where you want the banner to go.
  2. Set your web editor to view the source (HTML) code. Your cursor automatically appears in the same place in the HTML code as it does in the actual web page. This is where you'll paste the new code for your banner.

Step Three: Paste the code for the banner into your web site
With your web page ready for pasting the code, you:

  1. Click the place in your HTML code where your cursor is sitting.
  2. Select Edit > Paste from the menu in your web software. The banner code is automatically pasted into your web site code.

Step Four: Replace the "xxxxxx" with your affiliate nickname (ClickBank nickname) in: http://xxxxxx.geyi138.hop.clickbank.net
Save the change, and upload the new page to your server. Your banner is now ready!

IMPORTANT! Don't forget -- your affiliate id is automatically added to your banner after you replace the "xxxxxx" with your affiliate nickname (ClickBank nickname). You don't need to do anything special to start getting credit for your sales.
