Next Monday morning at Affiliate Summit, I’m moderating a panel titled, “Datafeeds: The Next Level”. I know what you’re thinking, how can so much excitement be contained? The truth is, Las Vegas is the only venue large enough to discuss such an awesome topic.
OK, seriously. I realize that there are more exciting topics than product datafeeds. But I owe my publishing business and career in no small part to product datafeeds and finding creative ways to use them. I hope that there are plenty of people who would like to learn how to use them better or at all.
The panel consists of a really smart set of guys, Larry Adams from Google Affiliate Network, Brian Smith from SingleFeed, and Shergul Arshad from StyleFeeder. Two of them have the word “feed” in their company name. C’mon!
We’re going to talk about best practices for merchants and affiliates, how to get started with datafeeds, the possible creation of standards, and more.
A critical element is to get input from attendees on what you want to hear about. We’ll probably be accepting questions live via twitter, and certainly by microphone if you’re willing to stand up. But why not chime in right here and now with your input on what you’d like to hear about.
What datafeed question do you have for this panel of experts representing the affiliate marketing triumvirate representing affiliate, merchant, and network?
Let us know in the comments and I hope to see you there.
