Seller Accounts
Your website sells products from Amazon and Clickbank, and displays ads from Google AdSense.

• Amazon Associates
  If you don't already have an Amazon Associate ID, visit http://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/apply/main.html
  Your Amazon login is not your associate ID.
  Your associate ID should look like "yourname-20"

• Clickbank
  If you don't already have a Clickbank nickname, visit http://www.clickbank.com/accountSignup.htm to sign up.
  A valid Clickbank nickname should have 5-10 characters.

• Google Adsense
  If you don't already have an Adsense Publisher ID, visit https://www.google.com/adsense/ to sign up.
  Your email account is not your Publisher ID.
  A valid AdSense account starts with "pub-".

Updating your website to use your seller accounts
If you already entered your Amazon, Clickseller and AdSense account names when you registered for your domain and hosting, your website is already updated. If not, please follow these steps:

• Visit www.YourDomain.com/wp-admin (replace YourDomain.com with your own domain name)
• Login with the username and password found in your welcome email.
• Click on "Store Settings".
• Enter your seller accounts in the appropriate fields and submit. The page should reload with a success message.

Modify your website categories
You can add/remove categories from your shop. To do so you should follow these instructions:

• Visit www.YourDomain.com/wp-admin (replace YourDomain.com with your own domain name)
• Login with the username and password found in your welcome email.
• Click on "Store Settings".
• Click on "Categories"
• You will see a list of your shop categories.

Add a Category:

• Search for a category using www.browsenodes.com and copy the node id for the category.
• Paste the number in a new line in your category list.
• Select the relevant SearchIndex
• Type in a title.
• Click on "Save Changes"

Remove a Category:

Click on the square on the left side of the category number, and then click on "Delete Selected"

Generate Subcategories:
To automatically generate subcategories, click on "View Subs" for the parent category, then click on "Regenerate this level" to get the subcategories, or on "Regenerate including all subcategories" to get infinite depth of subcategories (subs of subs of subs . )
"Regenerate including all subcategories" may take a significant time to complete depending on the parent category level. Amazon allows 1 call per 1 sec (per 1 category level), so you may calculate the time needed.
