For publishers, one of the best ways to create a rich reader experience is through a well-curated affiliate strategy. But it takes time to build commerce-driven content and deliver a unique shopping experience that drives revenue and brings your readers closer.
What if you could give visitors the chance to shop for anything and everything, all in one place? And what if you could build it in minutes, not hours?
Now you can with Commerce Shopping Galleries. This new tool lets editors build a personalized carousel of merchant products organized by theme or product type, or showcase a range of products from one or more merchants.
What is a shopping gallery?
A shopping gallery is an ecommerce tool that lets you highlight a variety of products from one or more merchants, creating a better shopping experience for your readers. The more products you offer, the better the opportunity to increase both dwell time and revenue. Why? Because adding editorially curated products in an engaging and visually appealing way offers readers the chance to explore — and likely purchase — more products from you, a source they trust.
In most cases, this is easier said than done. You do have your (ahem) day job to consider — crafting relevant reader content. So spending hours sourcing, building, and delivering thoughtful merchant content can often fall to the bottom of the list. Commerce Shopping Galleries can help.
Sovrn makes shopping galleries easy
Commerce Shopping Galleries is a flexible solution to create commerce-focused content that resonates with your readers. Just select from our wide array of products and merchants, pick those that best fit — lowest price, highest commissions, or that most resonate with your audience — and easily add them to your custom shopping gallery.
Unlike other “white label” widgets, Shopping Galleries gives you complete control. Simply enter a product page URL or product keywords into the tool, press Search, and a list of products currently offered by all merchants will appear. Click the one you want to display and it’s automatically added to your shopping gallery. Simple.👌
