If you’re looking to promote a specific merchant, you need to know which affiliate network to join. There are a number of techniques to find out which affiliate network to join.

If you’re using the Datafeedr API, chances are you have ambitions of building a large store. Many of my clients come to me looking to build something like Shop Style which has somewhere in the region of 1,000,000+ products. Adding that many products to WordPress using WooCommerce and the default settings and shared hosting will […]

If you are using WooCommerce with lots of products, you’ll have noticed it slows down significantly. There is some pretty bad code inside WooCommerce which iterates through every single one of your products in PHP to build category lists – these operations take milliseconds in mysql but tens or hundreds of seconds in PHP depending […]

There are a lot of people out there who love Datafeedr and want to use it to make vast stores containing 100s of 1000s of products. Unfortunately, many of them are running on sub-optimal shared hosting or poor VPS servers running Apache. I’ve gone into detail elsewhere about getting WordPress set up to run FAST […]
