Zlio is a site that allows you to build your own online shop. No IT or programming skills necessary! You can create and design your own shop quickly and easily, and Zlio allows you to choose from an extensive catalogue of over two million products. You can then advertise your ZlioShop to your friends, relatives, neighbors, colleagues, and promote it on your blog, via messenger or on online forums just like a professional vendor! (You will earn 10% of their upcoming commission + 5% of their friends’ commission.) Shortly after you've set up your ZlioShop, your site will automatically be referenced by the main search engines and will attract visitors with no efforts on your part! Each time your shop sells a product, you earn a commission
How It Works
Buildingng the Shop
Most of what would need you to edit HTML on a normal website is available in configuration edit
boxes in the control panel.
The Design of the Shop
For the looks of the shop, Zlio has templates available and if you want you can hand edit the CSS for
the site yourself. There’s also a drag and drop screen for moving visual elements around on the page of
your template.
Adding Products
The interface for picking products is simple, and you can add reviews of products, associate products
with keywords, etc. You have complete control over the categories of products in your shops, and can
assign each product to any category of your choice.
PayPerClick Program
A product will often be offered by more than one of the merchants. Some of them will pay you in the
“normal” way (as a commission on items bought via your ZlioShop), but some will pay you every
time someone clicks on one of their offers.
Google AdSense
AdSense is Google’s advertising system, which allows you to display ads (either text or picture based)
on your shop. Each time someone clicks on one of your shop’s ads, you get 60% of the revenues
generated.
Search Engines and SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
Zlio fully supports Google and Yahoo sitemaps, and provides a spot for you to type in the verification
code for each. (For those of you who haven’t used Google’s webmaster tools, the verification code
establishes your ownership of the site in Google’s eyes, and gives you access to diagnostics and
insight into your site’s search engine rankings.) There are also specific areas where you can type in
meta keywords and a meta description for your shop, and another area where you put the code for
whatever analytics program you’re using (such as Google Analytics).
Domain Name
You have the option to make your ZlioShop available from a domain name you own
(myboutique.com for example).
Monetize Your Blog
Create also a Blog at Zlio and customize the interface of your shop to your blog’s colors. Add up a
link or thumbnail redirecting towards your shop and you’re done!
