  Thumbs up New Electricals Site Launch: Duck.co.uk

Just launched today on CJ - The Duck.co.uk affiliate program.

At Duck.co.uk, we make buying the latest, top-brand electrical appliances easy and enjoyable. With great, low prices and an expert team, we know what we’re doing - Fridges, Washers, TVs, DVD, Digital Cameras...

We’re part of the Otto Group, the world’s largest home shopping company, so we’ve got loads of experience in the supply and service of electrical goods.

For the first month we are offering an introDUCKtory double commission special for all publishers. That's 4% on all purchases. After 28th July the commission will revert to 2% base rate, up to 3.5% based on performance.

The Duck program is set up as a "traditional" affiliate program, in that the latest affiliate referrer will get commission for the sale.


Your questions, comments and suggestions are welcome as always.

All the best,

Rob

Hi, nice looking site but may i ask that we can have a data feed and perhaps would it be possible for us to collect the feed directly from you rather than have the hassle of Cj feeds, not to knock your chosen network but it is a joke to get the feeds organised from CJ.

Could you sort that for me? pretty please with cherries on top promise to try and do some business type please?

Looks promising.
Is the phone number just for support or can people buy over the phone?
Are you running any discount voucher codes we can promote?
Like the ducky puns, look out Jason!

Looks promising but is only on CJ at the moment... any plans for a non-js network?

  Duck Q&A

Hi All,

Here's a reply to most of the questions above. A couple of you have received PMs, but here it is in a nutshell...

Data feeds.
We are still putting together our Product Feed for CJ. It's definitely part of the agenda, but we didn't want to delay the launch of the program just because it wasn't ready. I'm also working with CJ and our tech team to get together a feed that we can supply directly on a one-to-one basis to affiliates who need it. At least a periodic csv file.

Our deep links are quite exacting, and about a mile long, full of mandatory parameters and such, so my tech guys start to sweat when I mention the possibility of affiliates having access to the raw code. But we'll sort something out.

Is the phone number just for support or can people buy over the phone?
The phone number, along with the web chat feature, is an integral part of the Service / Expert Advice proposition offered by Duck. Technically, yes, you can buy over the phone, but it's billed first & foremost as an advice line - to speak with our highly trained electricals experts.

Are you running any discount voucher codes we can promote?
No vouchers at the moment, though I'm trying to get some affiliate-only offers soon. There are always items on special, and we will have creatives to promote them regularly. Also there is the introductory delivery offer of £3.95 for all Internet orders placed before 20th July. Really, who needs vouchers when you have a deal like that! But seriously, I will be pushing for discount voucher codes, and I'll make a big noise about it when they're available.

Non-JS network
We'll just have to see what happens...

Until next time,

Rob

Thanks for the update, it is appreciated though if the data feed you supply us has the urls in them (no matter how long) that you would otherwise supply to cj then there is no difference at all other than what CJ add to them afterwards.

If we collect them ourselves then we understand in full that there is no warranty and in reality the kind of people collecting and adapting them are probably running data feed systems much more advanced than anything CJ has to offer us.

Look forward to a result but i did notice that you said that you are talking to CJ tech team so i guess this could be quite a wait

I've not even got the option of grabbing a non-javascript link unless I say its for email which it blatantly isn't.

I'm not happy to use javascript links when they're forced upon me.



I would like a simple text link.

Below the bit where you can grab the js code you should see a blue hyperlink "Legacy Link Code (non-JavaScript)", click that and a nag screen asking if you really, really want to use legacy code appears, OK that and you'll get the original all singing all dancing plain ol' vanilla HTML code.
(I did enable my account for email marketing, but you are allowed to use HTML code on sites for the immediate future).
