We are wanting to provide our affiliates a website hosted on a central domain. Something similar to what MLM companies do, but we are single-tier affiliate program and those features are not necessary. We just want the site replication aspect.
Here's the problem...
We use 1ShoppingCart for our payment processing and affiliate program management. I understand it will have to be a multi-step process for affiliates to get their websites. I figure this is the process:
1. Signs up for program with 1ShoppingCart
2. Gets their link
3. Affiliate goes to a website request page
4. Inputs their affiliate link
5. Page is created
6. Given referral URL to promote
This way the affiliate still gets their own page and we can still process payments through 1ShoppingCart.
Any code examples or software recommendations would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Brandon
The way I see it you do not need any type of pre-scripted code
It should be a relatively straightforward coding proposition
They enter some sort of member’s details with username and password, email etc..
1)you are notified of payment
2)you verify that profile etc.. meet your standards
3)enter your new “members” master_admin
4)create a dir named upon something related to the new member
5)copy a template page in that dir
6)send an email with the new admin_url to your new member so they may edit the page and feed their own data (using thei own username and password)
7)when the new page is edited in return you are email auto notified of new page readiness
8)enter your own master_admin section
9)preview
10) allow page to exist and being reachable
The new dir will be for example “new biz” and the template duplication will be renamed index.php or html if your html may parse php.
As such the new member has a clean address
Like your_main_site/new_biz/
if you may not code it yourself, it should not take too long to any programmer to perform the task as hand
