How to Add Affiliate Banners to a Website
Decide which affiliate you want to add to your website. You can add several affiliates to different pages on your website, or you can simply paste one affiliate banner on one web page. Once you decide on an affiliate, or group of advertisers, it is time to add your banner.
Select the banner you want to add to your website. If you have an affiliate account with a merchant, they will most likely send you banners with the HTML or JAVA code for that banner, which you need to paste into your web pages. This HTML code draws the banner image from the affiliates' servers and displays it on your website page. You should not have to download images, or add any more files to your website server to add an affiliate to your website. A typical piece of JAVA banner code looks like this:
A'>http://www.linktobanner.com/your_tracking_code?target=_blank&mouseover=Y'></script> A typical piece of HTML code looks like this: <img'>http://www.link.to.banner/image/your_trackingcode'><img src='http://www.tqlkg.com/image-999999-999999' width='468' height='60' alt='Airaid Intake' border='0'/>
Copy the HTML or JAVA script code by placing your cursor at the beginning of the code, left click and hold down the mouse button, and then drag the cursor across the entire piece of code. It will become highlighted in blue, right click, then select 'copy' from the menu that appears on your screen.
Open the file for the web page where you would like to insert the code on your FTP server, or computer. Paste the HTML or JAVA code into the web page, where you want the affiliate banner to appear. To do this, download the HTML file of the web page to your computer, from your FTP server, using an FTP client, (or your website hosting account's FTP connection) and open it in notepad. Paste the HTML code or JAVA script code into the HTML code, where the banner should appear. If your page uses a table, create a new row and insert the code, or place it accordingly in the first row. The banner is handled just like an image by your browser.
Upload the website page to your domain using your FTP client and server in the directory it came from, and click overwrite page, of prompted to by the FTP client. View your page and make sure the banner is in the right place. If not, move the entire piece of code until the affiliate banner appears where you want it to appear.
