Zilo is another e-store hosted on their servers

Zilo an affiliate shopping site

Zilo is similiar to Amazon.com's Astore. Both of them are hosted on the merchants' servers and both let you make minor changes to the appearance, and both give you a commission on sales.

Adding products

Zilo is different too. Instead of letting you select a category, you have to search for and add products to your store. This obviously makes store creation much more difficult since every product must be individually selected. You can link your Zilo shop to your website and there seem to be a a plugins out there to test.

Once you set up your account and store layout, you can add products. If you don't want to search by a product's name, you can search by category. Once you get a level or two down in a category, you'll see a list of items. You can click on 'express add' to add it to your site.

When you click on 'express add', you get a pop-up that allows you the following options:

• Describe the product


• Tag the product


• Review the product


• Category


• Featured product (check box)


• Favorite Product (check box)


• I have it (check box)


• Add it to my wish list (check box)

There are 'save changes' and 'cancel' buttons to the lower right. If the category is not on the list, you can add it.

Google Adsense

Although Zilo is a store, they offer a very simple implementation of Google Adsense. You don't get to keep all of the Adsense earnings for your store. They keep 40% of the Adsense earnings. Considering how they don't charge you and you don't every have to paste the code, it is a fair deal. It should cover their server costs anyway. Implementing Google adsense on your website is completely optional.

Setup your own customized online store in less than 5 minutes.

Choose products from hundreds of the Internet's top retailers to include in your store and sell at the same rate as the Internet merchant.

Generate commissions through product sales and clicks. Additional income can be made by selecting to place Google ads in your store, and by referring others to join the program.
