AmmoSeek Certified Retailer Program
The AmmoSeek Certified Retailer Program
is aimed at retailers who wish to foster a partnership with AmmoSeek with the
goal of providing the most accurate product data possible. For retailers not
in the program, the AmmoSeek Engine indexes the web content of each
retailer. Retailers in the AmmoSeek Certified Retailer program agree to provide
a product feed (usually in XML format) to reduce the indexing effort of
the engine. This also reduces website traffic to retailers. If you are an
ammunition retailer and wish to sign up for the program,
please contact us.
Program Details:
- The program is limited to retailers that provide ammunition information
to us directly, such as utilizing an XML feed, so we don't have to mine the retailer's pages for product information, which is inefficient for us and the retailers. The feed should include all available ammunition (i.e. in-stock items only) and it must be updated once per hour at a minimum. Here is the requested format for the XML feed.
- Participating retailers are listed first on the left-hand column of the AmmoSeek.com main page under the AmmoSeek Certified Retailers heading.
- AmmoSeek Certified Retailers are eligible for an additional 10%
discount on banner advertising on
AmmoSeek.com. This would be over
and above any promotional discounts already in place. The 10% discount is
good for the first advertising term only, up to 1 year, in an increment of
1,3,6,9, or 12 months.
- Optional: We ask that a small "seal" be placed on the retailer's
top-level page in a position of their choosing that links back to
http://ammoseek.com/. Here is the banner:
And here is the code to be used to display it:
In return, we will denote with a small icon (or some other method
like bolded borders or text) next to all the items in any of our search
results from the certified retailer to demonstrate to customers that there
is a partnership with the retailer and it is a trusted source for ammo.
This will go next to the retailer's name within the search results.
- Optional: If the retailer so chooses, we'd also love to
help drive traffic to your site or to specific product pages
through promotions of some kind, whether it be discounted items if the
purchaser is referred to the retailer from AmmoSeek.com, or some other mutually
beneficial program. We are open to referral/coupon proposals like these and
will work with retailers to iron out the details.
NOTE: AmmoSeek.com reserves the right to discontinue a retailer's membership in the ACR program if the data feed no longer meets the defined requirements.
