Datafeed Import Plugin For Drop Shippers

Digitalquill — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 12:40:49 +0000

Until recently I have been mainly working with Affiliate Marketers while developing the Datafeed Import Plugin for WordPress, however, it is clear that the needs and requirements of affiliate marketers are reflected by the needs and requirements of those involved in Drop Shipping.

I have established that the Datafeed Import Plugin for WordPress will work equally as well for Drop Shippers as it does for Affiliate Marketers.

Many Drop Shipping companies or networks provide Datafeeds in a similar way to affiliate networks. These datafeeds are in CSV, XML and RSS formats just like those that the datafeed plugin is designed to work with.

If you are a drop ship marketer, please do get in touch, we will give you a free copy of the plugin if you are willing to trial it in the drop ship environment.

It seems to me that Drop Shippers face the same task as affiliate marketers with a slightly differing end result. You need to create a website rapidly, without fuss and without having to code a website from scratch. In this way the WordPress platform is the most logical system to use. It allows you to quickly setup a fully functioning site, change how it looks and works and extend its functionality with plugins.

The Datafeed Import Plugin will then allow you to rapidly populate that WordPress site with data from your Drop Ship datafeed as long as that datafeed is in a well formed format (XML, CSV, Pipe, RSS).

This cuts down the time spent developing a site and frees up your time to market and sell your products and earn your commissions for your drop shipping.

A Big Thanks For All Who Bought My Software

Digitalquill — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 10:07:28 +0000

I just thought that I would post a little note to say thank you to everyone who bought a copy of any of my WordPress plugins yesterday 21st September 2011, it was a record day for sales, I hope that you all find the software useful and are able to make some great affiliate websites using it.

I am working hard to get a user forum sorted out, however, I want to make sure that it does not go the way of the last forum I setup that was overwhelmed with SPAM. I am working on making the new Forum User Only, it will use the username and password you already have to download updates to the WordPress plugins. This way I will turn off all user registration to the forum so the only people who can access it are those who are existing users of the software.

I hope that this forum will provide you with an area where you can discuss best practices, help each other out, talk about your projects and create a steer to where you want me to develop the plugin in the future.

A Big thanks to all my customers, especially those from yesterday who made it a record day!

Timthumb Vulnerability Check

Digitalquill — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 07:42:56 +0000

There has been a great deal of press and concern in the WordPress community about a Vulnerability found in the TimThumb script whcih is used in many WordPress Themes. The script it’s self is not an issue but without being updated it does leave a cache directory open for people to exploit.

The fact that this vulnerability has been found is old news and the TimThumb script has been updated by its developers, however, some theme developers have yet to update their themes with the new more secure version of TimThumb.

If you are running a WordPress website make sure you install Timthumb Vulnerability Scanner a plugin that will look at your theme Directory and tell you if you are using the TimThumb script and if it needs updating it gives you the option to do so without any messing about with checking code or uploading new files.

I also Use WordPress Firewall and I have recently noticed heavy attacks looking for specific themes and the TimThumb script, so there are hackers that are trying to exploit this vunerability.

This plugin is a must… and while you are at it make sure you install WordPress Firewall 2 and Login Lockdown plugins, it is worth 5 minutes of your time.

Category Master Plugin For WordPress Released

Digitalquill — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 14:43:24 +0000

I have just release a new plugin to add to the growing collection I have for sale. This plugin, The category master plugin for WordPress, like the others has been built out of a real business requirement that we have had at Digitalquill, and one that I am sure other similar businesses, affiliate marketers, bloggers or WordPress site owners have all experienced.

The problem that it tackles is being faced with a WordPress site that for one reason or another has a poor category structure. This maybe because your blog has grown organically over the years and the category structure no-longer reflects the site you now have, you may have bought or taken over a site from someone else, or like us you maybe using Worpdress as a back end to an affiliate or ecommerce site where the raw data your are dealing with has poor categories.

We use WordPress for datafeed driven site using our other plugin the Datafeed import plugn for WordPress. Datafeeds are a great way to get masses of data into your site, however, the categorisation in datafeeds is often poor or simply reflects the merchants own website. This hardly ever suits what you want for your niche site so you are faced with the task of going through thousands of posts and re-categorising them.

This is where the category master plugin comes in. The plugin automates the process of adding posts to categories, it will work on both new posts as you publish or edit them or it can be run on the archive of your website. It can even to set to periodically ‘re-run’ on your site to ensure that the categories reflect what you require.

The plugin works by allowing you to create rules that it will follow, these rules are based around keywords or phrases that the plugin will look for in each post, if that keyword is found it will add that post to a specified category, a simple solution which saves a huge amount of time.

Here is a screenshot of some rules I have setup on one of my sites, you can see that the keywords have been setup to be added into the category of my choosing.

There are many reasons for your to improve the categorisation of your site, a major one is that it will improve the internal linking of your site which is of key importance, especially to Googles quality score, but it also allows search engine spiders and your users to easily find the content they are looking for.

As with all my software the Category master plugin for WordPress has its own website, take a look for more information and a live demo of how the plugin works.

Amazon Import Plugin For WordPress Live Demo Now Working

Digitalquill — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 07:46:01 +0000

I have just put the Live Demo of the Amazon import Plugin for WordPress Live again. I had hope to get this done yesterday, however, I took a pause from work to do some DIY and keep the wife happy!

The demo is the same as the Datafeed import plugin for WordPress Demo in that it re-sets its self every hour, this should give enough time for anyone to try the plugin and see how it works but do keep in mind that it does reset every hour on the hour.

As with the Datafeed Import Plugin for WordPress I will be releasing an update for the Amazon Import Plugin for WordPress very soon. This will bring the plugin up to V3.0 and has some very exciting features in it to help content developers.

Datafeed Import Plugin Live Demo Now Working

Digitalquill — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 10:14:49 +0000

After some time of being down, I have finally managed to get the time to re-create my demo install of the Datafeed Import Plugin For WordPress. This allows you to try before you buy to see what the plugin does.

Be aware that I have restricted the demo to stop people uploading 100′s of Mbs of Datafeeds to it and it will also reset on the hour every hour to keep it clean, but this should allow you to see how it works and see if it suits your requirements.

I will be releasing a new version of the plugin in about a week, this will of course be included in the free updates you get with any purchase of the plugin. Just as a preview of what is comming the plugin will handle custom content better! Great for those who want to write their own content along with the datafeed content.

I am now working on getting the Live demo for the Amazon import plugin for wordpress back up and running, I hope to achieve this later today.

Datafeed Import Plugin For WordPress April Discount

Digitalquill — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 18:51:46 +0000

We are offering our Datafeed Import Plugin for WordPress at a discounted price of £20 for the whole of April when you buy from the link below. This is a saving of £5 on the usual price of the plugin.

To take advantage of this fantastic offer go to the Datafeed Import Plugin for WordPress site and use the code ‘April2011‘ when asked.

The datafeed import plugin for WordPress allows you to create websites from affiliate or other datafeeds in a matter of minutes. The Plugin also allows you to create fully automated affiliate blogs that once setup will automatically keep themselves up-to-date and drip feed content into your site.

The wordpress plugin is now a mature product. We have been developing it for the last 3 years and during that time we have released many new version of the WordPress plugin. When you buy the datafeed import plugin for WordPress you also get free upgrades to all future versions of the plugin so you will never be left behind! This combined with version 3 of wordpress being released and WordPress it’s self coming of age, really provides the perfect solution for affiliate marketers.

We are also working on some exciting new features that will make the process of creating your sites even easier. You will be able to copy your settings from one site to another meaning that rapidly building many sites is made even quicker. Affiliate marketers who want to be able to create a number of sites in a matter of minutes will love this new feature in the plugin as it will allow them to concentrate on their Affiliate marketing rather than creating websites.

Following some concerns about the reliability of affiliate datafeeds and using remote images on your site which may be removed by the merchant we are working on another plugin that work with the datafeed import plugin for WordPress and the Amazon import plugin for WordPress and create a local copy of all the images you use in your posts. This pluign will then update the links to those images in all your wordpress posts giving you the control over those images.

We have been looking at integrating this functionality within the Datafeed import and amazon import plugins for WordPress, but the time taken to copy those images can be considerable so we have taken the decision to create a separate plugin which will be free of charge for users of either the Datafeed import plugin for wordpress or the Amazon import plugin for wordpress.

We are also looking at releasing our Ebay Import Plugin for WordPress in the very near future. This plugin works in the same way as the datafeed import plugin and the Amazon import plugin for WordPress, allowing you to integrate Ebay listings into your WordPress website.

WordPress 3.1 Release And And Digitalquill Plugin Updates

Digitalquill — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 20:06:21 +0000

Regular users of WordPress will already be aware that version 3.1 code named ‘Reinhardt’ has just been released. This is the 14th release of WordPress and builds on the platform, making the admin interface slicker and adding a top-bar feature that allows you to control your blog no matter what page you are on.

This is a good update to WordPress, but if truth be told the features and changes made do not move the software on very much. The only aspect that seems to be a great improvement are the changes to the internal linking process. When you create link you now get the option to create an external link or an internal link to an existing page

Wordpress 3.1 Internal Linking Structure

The bigger problem I have is that the update has broken many of my plugins, I am working on getting them working again, but if you are a user of the datafeed or amazon import plugins please do not update your wordpress until I release an update.

The problems are not significant there are some issues with the javascript library I use for the interface. i suspect that some class names have been used in the new version of WordPress it is just a matter of finding what. I will post an update here when I have fixed those issues.

On a little side, it was interesting to read Matt Mullenweg’s message for the release of WordPress 3.1 where he said:

With the 3.1 release, WordPress is more of a CMS than ever before. The only limit to what you can build is your imagination.

This shows that the WordPress team is seeing WordPress a more than a blogging platform, which is something many people have been saying for some time.

Ebay Import Plugin For WordPress

Digitalquill — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 20:49:08 +0000

I have just completed work on my latest plugin ‘Ebay Import Plugin for WordPress’ I am looking for affiliates who currently use the Ebay Partner program who would be willing to try the plugin out in return for a free copy.

To make this an even better deal I will also give you a free copy of my Datafeed Import plugin for WordPress and Amazon Import plugin for wordpress if you give me feedback on the Ebay import plugin for WordPress.

What is the Ebay Import plugin for WordPress?

The Ebay Import Plugin for WordPress is a plugin that is very similar to the datafeed import plugin and Amazon Import plugins for wordpress that I have been working on for the last could of years. It works in exactly the same way as both of those plugins so the interface will be familiar to current users of those other plugins.

On a very simple level, after adding in your Ebay Partner details to the plugin you can then enter a search term, you can then choose to limit this search to an ebay category or a site wide search. You will also choose which Ebay site that you want to import from.

Once you have done this you can setup a template for the posts that you want to create in your wordpress site using the fields that are available in the Ebay API which are made accessible to you via the plugins interface.

You then tell the plugin to go and import those listings and it will import Ebay listings and create a post in your wordpress site for each of those Ebay listings.

You can also filter the import, schedule re-imports to remove ended listings and import new Ebay listings, schedule posts to be drip fed into your WordPress site and also integrate with the All in one SEO plugin.

Keep tuned here for more information about the Ebay Import Plugin for WordPress. I will be releasing it following some testing by third parties to ensure that the plugin is up-to scratch.

You can get the Ebay Import plugin for WordPress from my Digitalquill Website

Increasing Blog Traffic

Digitalquill — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 19:00:53 +0000

Over that next 6 months this blog has seen a 20-25 % month on month increase in traffic. It is noticeable that this increase in traffic has been directly related to my maintaining this blog and blogging regularly about my current projects.

The blog still covers a multitude of subjects from tec, programming and WordPress to DIY and family life.

I have blogged before about the increase in the number of words I have written, I would be interested to calculate a month on month word count so that I can see if it is proportional the the increase in traffic. Perhaps there is a WordPress plugin there that I could develop…!

I have also seen that the blog is earning more money, so the increase in content, leads to an increase in traffic which in turn leads to an increase in income.

The blog has also improved its page rank, and although a Google page rank of 2 is fairly modest, I am happy with that and can continue to work on improving this over the next 6 months.

New WordPress Link Cloaker Plugin Coming Soon

Digitalquill — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 20:34:04 +0000

I have been working on a new WordPress plugin that will automatically cloak links on your WordPress blog. There are link cloaking plugins out there but none of them actually achieve what I would call the perfect plugin so I have make the investment and created one.

The WordPress plugin is targeted at people who use Affiliate links within their blogs but it is also useful from an SEO point of view for anyone who works with deep links. This plugin is flexible as it allows the user to control the cloaking and the follow tag on the links.

I will post more here when I have fully tested the plugin and I am ready to release it. I hope that it will be ready to go by the end of the month, when I will add it to my growing collection of WordPress Plugins.

UPDATE: the plugin has now been released – see the Link Cloaker and no-follow controller plugin for wordpress website for more details

3 Must Have WordPress Plugins

Digitalquill — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 20:04:39 +0000

Following my recent post about the ‘3 must have Media Centre Plugins‘ I thought that I would post about the three WordPress plugins that I consider a must have for all WordPress installs no matter what you use WordPress for, be that a Blog or a CMS.

I of course would promote my plugins at this point, however they are targeted at a specific niche on the WordPress users and as such do not fit into the must have for all WordPress installs category.

I also could go on about SPAM filter this, and SPAM filter that, but in all honesty that has been done so many times before and in my opinion most of the big SPAM plugins for WordPress out there work well so pick one and go with it.

My List is one that give practice benefit to you the blogger. They are all available for free on the WordPress Plugin Directory.

Search Meter

WordPress has a great inbuilt search facility, most if not all themes integrate with this to allow users of your WordPress site to search your content. This information is very valuable, especially if you are using WordPress as a CMS or as an ecommerce site, but also if you are a blogger.

To be able to have an insight into what your users are searching fo on your WordPress site gives you an insight into what they are interested in and as such you can tailor your future content to suit that, providing more content based on the search trends on your site.

Combine this with information coming from Google Analytics which will show you what keywords people used to find your site on search engines and you start to have a very powerful body of data at your disposal.

The Search Meter WordPress plugin records the searches made on your WordPress site and provides you with that information along with how many results those searches had on your site.

This allows you to start writing the content that your users want on your WordPress site.

All in one SEO

You can not have a list of WordPress plugins without the ‘All in one SEO plugin. By rights it should always be the number one plugin that you install every time you setup WordPress. In all honesty what should happen is that this plugin is taken on into the main code of WordPress and maintained by the WordPress developers.

The plugin improves the Search engine optimization of WordPress and allows you to control the meta tags created. Meta tags are things like the title of the page, hidden keywords and descriptions that can be picked up by the search engine spiders.

It is a must for all WordPress installs.

Keyword Density

Ok, so I said that I would not promote my WordPress plugins, what i really meant was I would only promote one of them! Seriously though, I do believe that this little tool is essential for everyone.

If you have done any research into getting search engine ranking, you will know that content is king. It does not matter what your site is, the most essential aspect is the content, its quality and its uniqueness.

The keyword density plugin aids you in writing this content to ensure that you get the balance of your chosen keywords in your text. It is a very simple plugin, you tell it to monitor keywords of your choice. If for example you have a blog about Cooking you may want to make sure that your content is rich with keywords such as ‘Cooking, cook, chef, recipe, kitchen, food, meal, baking’

This plugin tells you how you are doing with the balance of those keywords as you type your content. It also makes sure that you do not include your keywords too often as that would bee seen by Google as spamming the search engine.

Version 2.04 Of The Datafeed Plugin For WordPress Released

Digitalquill — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 20:03:47 +0000

I have today released a new version of the datafeed plugin for WordPress, this contains a minor bug fis for the URL cloaking or link masking system which when certain characters we entered into the post subject caused the link cloaking system to fail.

I have added script to handle this error which checks for characters that are not URL friendly and excludes them from the link masking system.

Please download a new copy of the plugin from the Datafeed Plugin for WordPress Website.

If you have any feature requests for the plugin or any other WordPress plugin that you would like to see please do not hesitate to contact me.

Version 2.03 Of The Datafeed Import Plugin For WordPress Released

Digitalquill — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 21:54:27 +0000

I have today released a new version of my Datafeed plugin (also known as Multifeed plugin) for WordPress. This version includes link masking or link cloaking that makes affiliate links more search engine friendly and click tracking to allow you to monitor the click son your links, which are performing well and which are not.

If you are interested in more information about the plugin please go to the Datafeed Import Plugins website.

I have learnt one lesson from this release, that is never do a release when it is late in the day and you are tired. I accidentally uploaded the wrong file to the server and invited thousands of users to come and download it! Soon realised and rectified the mistake but still lesson learned!

You may also be interested to know that I am about to launch a new version of the Amazon Import Plugin for WordPress, this has been a major re-write of the plugin which is now packed with features and functionality.

I am also putting out another call for beta testers for my WordPress Advertiser plugin, if you feel that you can help please do contact me either by email or post a comment on this blog.

WordPress Domain Mistakes

Digitalquill — Wed, 26 May 2010 20:23:36 +0000

I have bought several domain names for use with my new WordPress projects, the WordPress Advertiser Plugin and my WordPress Blog Hosting project. I had bought the .com and .co.uk domains for both of these projects, but having visited the WordPress site it appears that they do not like you using domain names with WordPress in them and would rather you used domains with WP in them.

Strangely, if you already own them you can use them but they would rather you pointed those domains to a new domain that only has WP in it and not use the WordPress one as your ‘main’ domain name.

It will cost me a little to get new domains, however, it is better that I have found out now rather than 6 months down the line when I have promoted those products with the wrong domain name.

WordPress 3.0 – A First View

Digitalquill — Thu, 20 May 2010 20:40:48 +0000

I have been using WordPress 3.0 for a little while now, mainly to test that the plugins I have developed still work in this new version. I am please to say that I have had very few problems.

I thought that I would give my first view of WordPress 3.0.

What is different in this version?

Custom Post Types
New Default Theme
Custom Background Support
Specific Templates for Authors
New Users Tutorial
Custom Woo Navigation added to the core
Merge of WordPress and the now defunct WordPress MU
Security Improvements with automatic creation of Security Keys

There are many other improvements, but these are mainly within the code and in the technical development of the software rather than up-front features.

The Install

WordPress can now be installed as a multi-site system very much like WordPress MU used to. I have yet to try this but will be investigating those features very soon as I use WordPress for many sites and it would be perfect if I can simply have one install to run them all rather than having to go through the process time and time again.

The normal WordPress install is very similar to the WordPress 2.x installs where it creates the configuration file, asking you for the username and password for the database and the database name. The main difference that I found was that it no-longer gives you a randomly generated admin password, but asks you to enter your password.

I think this is much better as it cuts out one step in the WordPress setup process, you no-longer have to go into the admin area and change the password to something sensible that you can remember. It does of course have the password strength indicator to ensure that you are not using a password of 1234!

The install still asks you for a name for your blog, but frustratingly does not ask you to change the Tag line. If this were added to the install process it would streamline the install even more. In my view if it added permalink settings as well this would be perfect and would mean that it is ready to go after the install rather than having to modify settings. I suppose the problem with this is that it would make the install process more cluttered but I would rather have that and know that once the install was finished WordPress was configured how I wanted it rather than having to go through the settings.

The WordPress install now checks the version of MySQL and PHP on the server. I always thought that this was something that it would do and it never occurred to me that it would not so this is very good news and long overdue. It is something that I have had in my plugins for some time now, checking to make sure that the server supports their requirements. This seems a basic thing that should have been introduced from the beginning of WordPress.

The WordPress Admin Interface

At first glance the WordPress admin interface looks very much the same. The theme has been updated a little, indeed the admin area is supposed to be easier to theme.

Updates: A large number of the changes included are the ability to do bulk updates, both WordPress plugins and themes now have the ability to have bulk updates, and the updates for WordPress its self have now moved onto the Dashboard.

Interestingly during the time it has taken since I installed WordPress 3.0 (2 hours ago) there has been an update, so I have gone through the update process to update WordPress to the latest nightly build and the process is exactly the same as the 2.9x automatically upgrade feature.

Custom Posts and Taxonomies: The introduction and improvement of custom posts and custom taxonomies will add much more functionality to WordPress and a huge amount of scope for building more advanced applications based on the WordPress Framework. I have not fully got my head round what is possible with these, but I intend to in the near future and I will try and post mu findings here.

Search Engines blocked Message: A very small but useful thing that I have noticed, as the install of WordPress 3.0 I have done is just a test install I noticed the box on the install which says allow search engines to see my blog, I now have a message in the top bar of the admin interface “Search Engines Blocked” a useful reminder, especially for me as I use many test installs of WordPress and am paranoid about domains or IP addresses being blocked for spamming when I am testing new scripts on those WordPress installs.

Revision interface: The interface that allows you to compare the revisions of a post within WordPress has been updated, the fact of the matter is that I did not know that this interface even existed, and when I compare the 2.9.2 and the WordPress 3.0 interfaces I can not see any difference, but this is defiantly a feature I will be using in the future.

Menu Management: WordPress 3.0 now has the Woo Navigation features integrated as core. This allows you to manage the menus on your WordPress via a drag and drop interface. It also means that you can make up custom menus that include both pages and categories, a very useful feature especially if you are using WordPress as a framework for a CMS or e-commerce site.

There are many other features and the list of new features for developers is apparently endless. I must get time to read the whole list and see what it means for WordPress developers and how I can use them to improve my WordPress Plugins.

Will I be upgrading?

Simple answer is yes, of course I will upgrade, the more detailed answer would be that I will upgrade my WordPress installs that have a blog on them such as this one, Earning From Affiliates and On the Allotment first. I will then start to move onto the other sites that use WordPress as a framework for e-commerce or affiliate sites. However, I want to investigate the multi site facilities before I do that to see if it is an easy task to move over to a single install of WordPress to manage all my sites.

Whats next?

You will have noted several times in this post that I have seen areas that I need to gen up on. Custom Posts and Custom Taxonomies specifically look like an area that will be of use to me in my WordPress Datafeed Import and WordPress Amazon Import Plugins. I have a load of work to do playing with these new features to discover what I can do, look out in the near future for exciting new features for my plugins.

WordPress Advertiser Plugin – Beta Avaliable

Digitalquill — Wed, 19 May 2010 20:02:31 +0000

The initial development on my new wordpress plugin ‘WordPress Advertiser’ that allows you to manage the process of selling and displaying adverts on your WordPress blog, has been finished.

I am looking for WordPress blog owners who are interested in the new plugin to contact me. I need some people to try the beta copy of the plugin on their blogs and give it a test in a real life environment, to see how well it works and give me some feedback.

I have done a great deal of testing on the plugin in both wordpress 2.9.2 and wordpress 3.0.

I am in the process of writing the help files for it, when those help files are written I will send anyone who contacts me a copy, and then when I release the finished version of the plugin I will send you an updated copy.

Please post here if you are willing to help, along with the blog that you will be able to test it on.

I am also writing a new website for the WordPress advertiser plugin, this will be up and online by the end of the week, it will give you more details about what the plugin actually does and its features and functions.

Datafeed Import And Amazon Import WordPress Plugins

Digitalquill — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 20:27:38 +0000

Over the last 9 months I have been developing two plug-ins for WordPress plug ins. These plugins have been universally praised and far more successful than I had ever imagined they could have been. This has been one of the reasons why I took a break from blogging to dedicate the extra time required to developing these plugins.

As you will be aware I do affiliate marketing in my ‘spare’ time, one of the main issues with affiliate marketing and really the holy grail of affiliate marketing is the ability to rapidly create sites for your to be able to market other peoples products.

Until recently, I have been hand coding sites, and making custom designs for each, this took a great deal of time, time which I did not have, and time which I tended to get bogged down with making my affiliate projects stall before they were really launched.

I decided that there must be a solution so I employed my programming skills into developing a solution for wordpress whcih I could then use as a framework for all my affiliate sites.

The first plugin that I created was the Datafeed import plugin. Initially it was very basic, the ability to have oneaffiliate datafeed and one template, the plugin then created a post in wordpress for each row in the affiliate datafeed. Perfect, it allowed me to rapidly create sites in a matter of minutes rather than days.

I could also use other WordPress plugins such as the All in one SEO plugin and use the WordPress themes to make the sites suitable for the products which they contained. They were also fully search-able, menus and categories automatically created, functionality given by WordPress.

I then gave the plugin to another affiliate marketer friend who also found that it was a very useful tool so I decided to put the plugin out on to the open market or people to buy.

Since then I have made the plugin far more advanced, it can handle many datafeeds, each with their own templates, custom fields, advanced filters and automatic updates.

I have created a website for the datafeed import plugin where you can find more details

I then wanted to be able to easily import Amazon products as they are always very high converting affiliate products, so I have created a similar plugin that allows you to import and create posts from Amazon products based on a search term. This works very well and again as with the datafeed plugin I am working on more and more advanced versions of the plugin, the next of which is due to be released in the coming weeks.

Again I have created a website for the Amazon Import Plugin so if you are interested have a look.

WordPress Plugin Development

I am currently looking at developing a wordpress plug-in, really for nothing more than my own interest. I have an idea for a plugin that monitors keyword density, which would therefore be a useful tool in SEO. The formula for working this out is relatively simple, however having never attempted creating a plug-in I really …
