Manually copy and pasting coupons, writing descriptions, checking expiry dates and building affiliate links is a full-time, soul-crushing job that, in the end, produces broken links and expired offers that frustrates your users and is bad for SEO.<\/p>\n\n <p>But there is a better way. This guide explains exactly how coupon feeds work, what to look for in a feed provider and how to take your site or app from blank slate to completely automated, monetization deal section:<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>The Problem with Manual Coupon Aggregation<\/h2>\n\n <p>Before we start looking at solutions, let’s understand why so many publishers struggle with this problem. These are the 4 things that generally kill the momentum on any coupon or affiliate website:<\/p>\n\n <div class=\"problem-grid\">\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">⏱️<\/div>\n <h4>It’s extremely time-consuming<\/h4>\n <p>Monitoring hundreds of stores manually is much more time-consuming than a team has available.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">💀<\/div>\n <h4>Expired coupons ruin conversions<\/h4>\n <p>Nothing degrades the trust with your users more quickly than a coupon that stopped working last week. Visitors will bounce and they won’t be back.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">📋<\/div>\n <h4>Duplicated content ruins SEO<\/h4>\n <p>When every coupon site has the same descriptions for the same coupons it’s unlikely that any site will be well ranked by search engines.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">🔗<\/div>\n <h4>Managing affiliate links is tedious<\/h4>\n <p>Tracking IDs and deep linking across affiliate networks for different stores can add up quickly. A coupon feed solves all 4 issues above. A feed provider monitors all the sources for you and delivers standardized offer data to your site automatically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>What Exactly is a Coupon Feed?<\/h2>\n\n <p>A coupon feed is simply a standardized, continuously updating data file or stream of offers that includes coupon codes, discounts, expiry dates, product categories and affiliate links for a defined set of merchants.<\/p>\n\n <p>Think of an RSS feed, but for deals. Instead of subscribing to blog posts, you are subscribing to live deal data. When a merchant launches a coupon, you have it in your feed. When it expires, you can remove it automatically from your site or display it as expired.<\/p>\n\n <blockquote>‘The value of your time shifts from coupon acquisition to coupon display; exactly where it should be.’\n<\/blockquote>\n\n <p>A feed provider will take the difficult job of monitoring the stores and will send that information to you in a clean format.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>What to look for in a Coupon Feed Provider<\/h2>\n\n <p>There is more than one out there, so you need to understand how to evaluate feed providers:<\/p>\n\n <h3>Updates in real-time or frequently<\/h3>\n <p>With deal offers changing every day it’s crucial to have up-to-date content. Look for providers that are verifying and suspending old offers on a constant basis.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Incremental feeds<\/h3>\n <p>This simply means that the data is updated more efficiently. The feed provider sends you just what has changed instead of an entire download which saves bandwith and processing time.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Unique, SEO-optimized content<\/h3>\n <p>If your content is the same as hundreds of other coupon sites it won’t be ranked by search engines. The best feed providers generate new unique descriptions for each of their clients and this could provide you a serious advantage.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Affiliate deeplinking<\/h3>\n <p>The provider’s system should support sending your affiliate links directly within the data rather than the basic merchant links; this is how you’ll make commissions.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Flexible delivery formats<\/h3>\n <p>The most common formats are API, downloadable file, or a plugin for CMS such as WordPress. Ideally, they support all three.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Number of stores and categories<\/h3>\n <p>To attract a diverse audience you should aim to track a wide variety of merchants across various categories. Providers that track 2000+ stores in over 72 categories provide impressive depth.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>How LinkMyDeals Works as a Coupon Feed Provider<\/h2>\n\n <p>LinkMyDeals is specifically built for coupon websites, cashback sites and deal apps, and has been in the industry since 2013, working with clients from 28+ countries and powering the deal sections for well-known sites such as Microsoft, CouponFollow and PerkBox.<\/p>\n\n <p>Here’s what LinkMyDeals does from beginning to end:<\/p>\n\n <h3>1. Collection<\/h3>\n <p>The platform monitors a massive network of 3,000+ of the most popular stores. No source is missed: affiliate networks, merchant websites, newsletters, banners, social media ads and even direct merchant submissions are covered.<\/p>\n\n <h3>2. Processing<\/h3>\n <p>Every offer is standardized and categorized (72 common categories are available), and a unique SEO-friendly description is created for each. Offers are verified and monitored continuously, with expired deals automatically suspended rather than simply flagged to prevent outdated content from showing on your site.<\/p>\n\n <h3>3. Customization<\/h3>\n <p>You have full control over the structure of your feed. You select the specific fields you need, as well as the stores and categories you want to track. The feed can be specific to a certain store, a category, or include a mix of multiple categories and stores – all fully customizable to integrate into your unique platform.<\/p>\n\n <h3>4. Delivery<\/h3>\n <p>Feeds can be delivered via API, downloadable files, or a pre-built WordPress plugin compatible with most major coupon themes. If your theme does not support native coupon post types, the feed can be imported as standard posts.<\/p>\n\n <h3>5. Monetization<\/h3>\n <p>This is the core feature of LinkMyDeals’ platform. Affiliate IDs are automatically embedded into feed links and its unique Smartlinks feature automatically redirects outgoing traffic to your preferred affiliate network for a particular store, meaning you won’t need to touch a single affiliate link if you ever decide to switch networks.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>Step-by-Step: How to get a coupon feed on your site or app<\/h2>\n\n <p>Here’s a quick rundown of the entire workflow, from signup to a live monetized coupon feed on your site or app.<\/p>\n\n <ol class=\"steps\">\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">1<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Sign Up on LinkMyDeals<\/h4>\n <p>Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/linkmydeals.com\/plans-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\">linkmydeals.com\/plans-pricing<\/a> and select the best plan for your scale. You can start small from 50 and add more to your store subscriptions as your store grows. You’ll get instant access to the dashboard where all the configuration takes place.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">2<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Subscribe to Stores<\/h4>\n <p>Select which of the 3,000+ stores in the catalog to subscribe to based on the most relevant choices for your audience. You can filter by country, by category, and by store name. Only merchants you subscribe to will show up on your coupon feed, so do this carefully and strategically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">3<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Join Affiliate Networks and Get Store Approvals<\/h4>\n <p>In order to earn commission, you need to be part of an affiliate network like CJ Affiliate, Admitad, ShareASale, etc. After you sign up with an affiliate network, apply for all the merchants you want to monetize through that network. This is a normal part of affiliate marketing – LinkMyDeals manages the tracking, but not the commission payment itself (that’s through your affiliate network).<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">4<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Add Your Affiliate IDs to the Dashboard<\/h4>\n <p>Once you are approved by a store, go to the Affiliate Programs tab in your LinkMyDeals dashboard and add all the appropriate affiliate IDs for each network you are working with. From here on, all the deeplinks created for the merchants in your feed will point to a tracking URL that has your affiliate ID in it.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">5<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Configure Merchant Deeplinks and Smartlinks<\/h4>\n <p>Under Merchant Deeplinks, you’ll set which affiliate network to use to create tracking URLs for each subscribed merchant. This setting determines where your link goes and which tracking ID it uses. The smartlinks feature automatically redirects out-going links through your chosen network; you can swap affiliate networks by changing the setting in the dashboard once and never again on your website, as every link is updated automatically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">6<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Access Your Coupon Feed via API or Plugin<\/h4>\n <p>Your custom coupon feed is ready! Get it through the LinkMyDeals API (JSON\/CSV) and download it directly, or via the WordPress plugin. Use Incremental feeds to only sync deals that have changed since your last pull to save you time.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">7<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Integrate Into Your Website or App<\/h4>\n <p>Map the feed fields to your own site’s database and upload to your CMS or app. For WordPress users the plugin handles most of the integration. If you’re using a custom platform, the API will let you create a completely unique system. LinkMyDeals can even provide sub IDs for cashback platforms so you can properly track individual user-level clicks and commissions.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ol>\n\n <div class=\"notice\">\n <p class=\"notice-title\">Important: How Commissions Work<\/p>\n <p>LinkMyDeals does not pay commissions. The platform handles all of the data management and affiliate link infrastructure, but you will earn commissions directly through your affiliate network’s infrastructure based on the clicks and transactions that you tracked. You need to:<\/p>\n <ol>\n <li>Sign up for at least one affiliate network<\/li>\n <li>Get approved for the specific merchants you have subscribed to on LinkMyDeals<\/li>\n <li>Add your affiliate IDs in LinkMyDeals dashboard<\/li>\n <li>Configure merchant deeplinks for each specific merchant<\/li>\n <\/ol>\n <\/div>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>Key Features at a Glance<\/h2>\n\n <div class=\"feature-grid\">\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🔄<\/div>\n <h4>Real-Time Coupon Updates<\/h4>\n <p>All of the deals on the LinkMyDeals platform are updated real time, so you never have to worry about posting an expired or fake offer.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">📦<\/div>\n <h4>Incremental Feeds<\/h4>\n <p>Only receive new, suspended, and updated deals since your last pull.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">✍️<\/div>\n <h4>Unique SEO Content<\/h4>\n <p>Every client’s site is provided with their own unique article descriptions and titles so that their coupon content will not be marked as spam for duplicate content.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🔗<\/div>\n <h4>Affiliate Deeplinks<\/h4>\n <p>This makes certain that your affiliate IDs are included in every single coupon, discount code or deal, thereby automatically generating commissions whenever a customer makes a purchase through that link.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">⚡<\/div>\n <h4>Smartlink Automation<\/h4>\n <p>If you change your affiliate network to another one and your site is already implemented, you won’t need to change any aspect of your website, simply change it from the LinkMyDeals dashboard and your new affiliate network will be integrated across your entire site automatically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">💸<\/div>\n <h4>Cashback Sub-ID Support<\/h4>\n <p>This will help with tracking each individual user level action which is useful for attributing a commission to the right customer, for cashback clients who use the platform for affiliate marketing on their websites.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🗂️<\/div>\n <h4>Custom Feed Formats<\/h4>\n <p>Design the feed exactly to your specification. Filter by category, merchants and country. Select which information each element of the feed carries, from the product price to the discount percentage and also by its format; json, CSV.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🔌<\/div>\n <h4>WordPress Integration<\/h4>\n <p>Use an efficient WordPress plugin for easily importing all feed items into a WordPress coupon theme seamlessly.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>Who Should Use a Coupon Feed Service?<\/h2>\n\n <p>A coupon feed is best for all publishers who are monetizing their site through affiliate links at scale. These include: <\/p>\n\n <div class=\"who-list\">\n <span class=\"who-tag\">🏷️ Coupon Websites<\/span>\n <span class=\"who-tag\">💰 Cashback Platforms<\/span>\n <span class=\"who-tag\">📱 Deal Aggregation Apps<\/span>\n <span class=\"who-tag\">🤝 Affiliate Marketers<\/span>\n <span class=\"who-tag\">🛒 Price Comparison Sites<\/span>\n <span class=\"who-tag\">📧 Deal Newsletters<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n <p>If you have been manually updating the coupon database on your site, even a few times a week, it’s likely that a coupon feed will save you a lot of time and will improve the quality of data in your coupons database, if you have a seriously run coupon or cashback service on your website, it will almost always be crucial infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n <p>Setting up a coupon feed is not a complex process and can quickly be achieved by selecting the right provider, and setting up the monetization properly. In short, it’s about choosing the right stores, implementing your affiliate network credentials, and allowing the feed to take care of the rest.<\/p>\n\n <p>After setting it up, you can devote all of your time to generating traffic to your website as well as optimizing it to offer users a seamless experience and drive conversions. A good coupon feed saves you hours every week that would otherwise be spent manually curating coupon content, and gives you the leverage needed to properly monetize your affiliate marketing business at scale.

Manually copy and pasting coupons, writing descriptions, checking expiry dates and building affiliate links is a full-time, soul-crushing job that, in the end, produces broken links and expired offers that frustrates your users and is bad for SEO.<\/p>\n\n <p>But there is a better way. This guide explains exactly how coupon feeds work, what to look for in a feed provider and how to take your site or app from blank slate to completely automated, monetization deal section:<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>The Problem with Manual Coupon Aggregation<\/h2>\n\n <p>Before we start looking at solutions, let’s understand why so many publishers struggle with this problem. These are the 4 things that generally kill the momentum on any coupon or affiliate website:<\/p>\n\n <div class=\"problem-grid\">\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">⏱️<\/div>\n <h4>It’s extremely time-consuming<\/h4>\n <p>Monitoring hundreds of stores manually is much more time-consuming than a team has available.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">💀<\/div>\n <h4>Expired coupons ruin conversions<\/h4>\n <p>Nothing degrades the trust with your users more quickly than a coupon that stopped working last week. Visitors will bounce and they won’t be back.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">📋<\/div>\n <h4>Duplicated content ruins SEO<\/h4>\n <p>When every coupon site has the same descriptions for the same coupons it’s unlikely that any site will be well ranked by search engines.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"problem-card\">\n <div class=\"icon\">🔗<\/div>\n <h4>Managing affiliate links is tedious<\/h4>\n <p>Tracking IDs and deep linking across affiliate networks for different stores can add up quickly. A coupon feed solves all 4 issues above. A feed provider monitors all the sources for you and delivers standardized offer data to your site automatically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>What Exactly is a Coupon Feed?<\/h2>\n\n <p>A coupon feed is simply a standardized, continuously updating data file or stream of offers that includes coupon codes, discounts, expiry dates, product categories and affiliate links for a defined set of merchants.<\/p>\n\n <p>Think of an RSS feed, but for deals. Instead of subscribing to blog posts, you are subscribing to live deal data. When a merchant launches a coupon, you have it in your feed. When it expires, you can remove it automatically from your site or display it as expired.<\/p>\n\n <blockquote>‘The value of your time shifts from coupon acquisition to coupon display; exactly where it should be.’\n<\/blockquote>\n\n <p>A feed provider will take the difficult job of monitoring the stores and will send that information to you in a clean format.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>What to look for in a Coupon Feed Provider<\/h2>\n\n <p>There is more than one out there, so you need to understand how to evaluate feed providers:<\/p>\n\n <h3>Updates in real-time or frequently<\/h3>\n <p>With deal offers changing every day it’s crucial to have up-to-date content. Look for providers that are verifying and suspending old offers on a constant basis.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Incremental feeds<\/h3>\n <p>This simply means that the data is updated more efficiently. The feed provider sends you just what has changed instead of an entire download which saves bandwith and processing time.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Unique, SEO-optimized content<\/h3>\n <p>If your content is the same as hundreds of other coupon sites it won’t be ranked by search engines. The best feed providers generate new unique descriptions for each of their clients and this could provide you a serious advantage.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Affiliate deeplinking<\/h3>\n <p>The provider’s system should support sending your affiliate links directly within the data rather than the basic merchant links; this is how you’ll make commissions.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Flexible delivery formats<\/h3>\n <p>The most common formats are API, downloadable file, or a plugin for CMS such as WordPress. Ideally, they support all three.<\/p>\n\n <h3>Number of stores and categories<\/h3>\n <p>To attract a diverse audience you should aim to track a wide variety of merchants across various categories. Providers that track 2000+ stores in over 72 categories provide impressive depth.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>How LinkMyDeals Works as a Coupon Feed Provider<\/h2>\n\n <p>LinkMyDeals is specifically built for coupon websites, cashback sites and deal apps, and has been in the industry since 2013, working with clients from 28+ countries and powering the deal sections for well-known sites such as Microsoft, CouponFollow and PerkBox.<\/p>\n\n <p>Here’s what LinkMyDeals does from beginning to end:<\/p>\n\n <h3>1. Collection<\/h3>\n <p>The platform monitors a massive network of 3,000+ of the most popular stores. No source is missed: affiliate networks, merchant websites, newsletters, banners, social media ads and even direct merchant submissions are covered.<\/p>\n\n <h3>2. Processing<\/h3>\n <p>Every offer is standardized and categorized (72 common categories are available), and a unique SEO-friendly description is created for each. Offers are verified and monitored continuously, with expired deals automatically suspended rather than simply flagged to prevent outdated content from showing on your site.<\/p>\n\n <h3>3. Customization<\/h3>\n <p>You have full control over the structure of your feed. You select the specific fields you need, as well as the stores and categories you want to track. The feed can be specific to a certain store, a category, or include a mix of multiple categories and stores – all fully customizable to integrate into your unique platform.<\/p>\n\n <h3>4. Delivery<\/h3>\n <p>Feeds can be delivered via API, downloadable files, or a pre-built WordPress plugin compatible with most major coupon themes. If your theme does not support native coupon post types, the feed can be imported as standard posts.<\/p>\n\n <h3>5. Monetization<\/h3>\n <p>This is the core feature of LinkMyDeals’ platform. Affiliate IDs are automatically embedded into feed links and its unique Smartlinks feature automatically redirects outgoing traffic to your preferred affiliate network for a particular store, meaning you won’t need to touch a single affiliate link if you ever decide to switch networks.<\/p>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>Step-by-Step: How to get a coupon feed on your site or app<\/h2>\n\n <p>Here’s a quick rundown of the entire workflow, from signup to a live monetized coupon feed on your site or app.<\/p>\n\n <ol class=\"steps\">\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">1<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Sign Up on LinkMyDeals<\/h4>\n <p>Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/linkmydeals.com\/plans-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\">linkmydeals.com\/plans-pricing<\/a> and select the best plan for your scale. You can start small from 50 and add more to your store subscriptions as your store grows. You’ll get instant access to the dashboard where all the configuration takes place.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">2<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Subscribe to Stores<\/h4>\n <p>Select which of the 3,000+ stores in the catalog to subscribe to based on the most relevant choices for your audience. You can filter by country, by category, and by store name. Only merchants you subscribe to will show up on your coupon feed, so do this carefully and strategically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">3<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Join Affiliate Networks and Get Store Approvals<\/h4>\n <p>In order to earn commission, you need to be part of an affiliate network like CJ Affiliate, Admitad, ShareASale, etc. After you sign up with an affiliate network, apply for all the merchants you want to monetize through that network. This is a normal part of affiliate marketing – LinkMyDeals manages the tracking, but not the commission payment itself (that’s through your affiliate network).<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">4<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Add Your Affiliate IDs to the Dashboard<\/h4>\n <p>Once you are approved by a store, go to the Affiliate Programs tab in your LinkMyDeals dashboard and add all the appropriate affiliate IDs for each network you are working with. From here on, all the deeplinks created for the merchants in your feed will point to a tracking URL that has your affiliate ID in it.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">5<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Configure Merchant Deeplinks and Smartlinks<\/h4>\n <p>Under Merchant Deeplinks, you’ll set which affiliate network to use to create tracking URLs for each subscribed merchant. This setting determines where your link goes and which tracking ID it uses. The smartlinks feature automatically redirects out-going links through your chosen network; you can swap affiliate networks by changing the setting in the dashboard once and never again on your website, as every link is updated automatically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">6<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Access Your Coupon Feed via API or Plugin<\/h4>\n <p>Your custom coupon feed is ready! Get it through the LinkMyDeals API (JSON\/CSV) and download it directly, or via the WordPress plugin. Use Incremental feeds to only sync deals that have changed since your last pull to save you time.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <li>\n <div class=\"step-num\">7<\/div>\n <div class=\"step-content\">\n <h4>Integrate Into Your Website or App<\/h4>\n <p>Map the feed fields to your own site’s database and upload to your CMS or app. For WordPress users the plugin handles most of the integration. If you’re using a custom platform, the API will let you create a completely unique system. LinkMyDeals can even provide sub IDs for cashback platforms so you can properly track individual user-level clicks and commissions.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ol>\n\n <div class=\"notice\">\n <p class=\"notice-title\">Important: How Commissions Work<\/p>\n <p>LinkMyDeals does not pay commissions. The platform handles all of the data management and affiliate link infrastructure, but you will earn commissions directly through your affiliate network’s infrastructure based on the clicks and transactions that you tracked. You need to:<\/p>\n <ol>\n <li>Sign up for at least one affiliate network<\/li>\n <li>Get approved for the specific merchants you have subscribed to on LinkMyDeals<\/li>\n <li>Add your affiliate IDs in LinkMyDeals dashboard<\/li>\n <li>Configure merchant deeplinks for each specific merchant<\/li>\n <\/ol>\n <\/div>\n\n <hr \/>\n\n <h2>Key Features at a Glance<\/h2>\n\n <div class=\"feature-grid\">\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🔄<\/div>\n <h4>Real-Time Coupon Updates<\/h4>\n <p>All of the deals on the LinkMyDeals platform are updated real time, so you never have to worry about posting an expired or fake offer.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">📦<\/div>\n <h4>Incremental Feeds<\/h4>\n <p>Only receive new, suspended, and updated deals since your last pull.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">✍️<\/div>\n <h4>Unique SEO Content<\/h4>\n <p>Every client’s site is provided with their own unique article descriptions and titles so that their coupon content will not be marked as spam for duplicate content.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🔗<\/div>\n <h4>Affiliate Deeplinks<\/h4>\n <p>This makes certain that your affiliate IDs are included in every single coupon, discount code or deal, thereby automatically generating commissions whenever a customer makes a purchase through that link.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">⚡<\/div>\n <h4>Smartlink Automation<\/h4>\n <p>If you change your affiliate network to another one and your site is already implemented, you won’t need to change any aspect of your website, simply change it from the LinkMyDeals dashboard and your new affiliate network will be integrated across your entire site automatically.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">💸<\/div>\n <h4>Cashback Sub-ID Support<\/h4>\n <p>This will help with tracking each individual user level action which is useful for attributing a commission to the right customer, for cashback clients who use the platform for affiliate marketing on their websites.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"feature-card\">\n <div class=\"feat-icon\">🗂️<\/div>\n <h4>Custom Feed Formats<\/h4>\n <p>Design the feed exactly to your specification.
