How do I add a product link to a web site?

Instead of displaying the storefront link or department links on your home page, you can create your eStore by inserting the links for each product into your Web site's home page. The product link will take your shopper directly to the product description page, where the product can be added to their cart.

You can also use product links in conjunction with your electronic promotional activities. Consider adding one or more product links to your eNewsletters and other email campaigns, when you want to highlight new or seasonal offerings to your customers.

  1. From the Web Site Links section of the Shopping Cart menu, choose Products.
  2. In the Example of a Product Link Box, modify the link with the actual Department ID number (DID=???) and Product ID number (PID=???) of your intended product. Links shown are in English. To modify a link for your French eStore, change LNG=EN to LNG=FR.
  3. Copy the product link once modified.
  4. Paste the link into your Web site or promotional campaigns.
    • The link can be associated with an image, button, or text.
    • Test your links once you go live. When testing links do not click submit on the final page to avoid processing your transaction.
