Promoting and selling products

Where to sell your Pulley products

Pulley products can be purchased by simply accessing their individual URL. To make things even easier, we provide you with some basic HTML snippets that you can use to embed these URLs anywhere online:

  • websites
  • blogs (including WordPress, Tumblr, Blogger, etc.)
  • social networks (including Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, etc.)
  • email

Buy Now links

Our Buy Now links can be embedded anywhere that allows you to enter HTML: websites, blogs, MySpace, Facebook, and more. Here’s how:

  1. Go to your Products page in Pulley and click the Sell button next to a product.
  2. Next to the Buy Now link you’d like to use, click on the white area containing the code to select it.
  3. Right-click the highlighted text, and click Copy.
  4. Go to the website you’d like to embed it to, right-click again, and select Paste.

That’s it! Now your products can be sold directly from there. If you’d like to use an image in your link, instead of the Buy Now text, simply replace the text with an HTML image tag. For example:

<a href="http://pul.ly/b/1234" title="Buy My Product"><img src="http://example.com/myimage.jpg" /></a>

Using the Direct URL

Sometimes you can’t use HTML, and you’ll instead need to send people to the product’s URL directly (such as with Twitter and email). We’ve made this extremely simple to do by providing you with shortened URLs that will fit inside a tweet, or be easy to click or copy from an email.

  1. Go to your Products page in Pulley and click the Sell button next to a product.
  2. Next to the Direct URL text, click on the white area containing the URL to select it.
  3. Right-click the highlighted text, and click Copy.
  4. Go to the location you’d like to embed it to (email, tweet, etc.), right-click again, and select Paste.
