    Default Documentation for integrating with pay-per-click advertising?

    I'm considering ZC for my next store implementation. I have some dated experience with AdWords.

    Where in the Zen Cart documentation can I read about integrating with present-day pay-per-click advertising services?

    Welcome to the best forum on the internet. You'll get great info here and in the documentation. Some of it may seem to defy logic but...

    If you are wanting to participate in Google Ads, I personally consider it a waste of money. Google kayak parts. No SEO, no fancy URLs, no click ads. Just good images and content. They are the number one site that is not a participant in Pay Per Click. Not bad when you beat Amazon.

    If you are wanting to sell ads on your site, why would you want to have someone come to your site and immediately be "taken away" by a snazzy ad having nothing to do with your product.

    Apologies in advanced if I missed your point.

    You'll integrate the tags as provided, then on your checkout success page you'll update the tag entries to their corresponding database defines from the orders table. I found some docs to assist

    Interesting.

    I solicited no product. We are not allowed to solicit on the forum and you were not asking a for a hosting company so I don't quite understand the ire.

    Yes, we are a certified Zen Cart host but, the advice I offered (with proof of what can be done with work) had nothing to do with hosting or who was hosted with who. It was the work of the store owner that accomplished the feat. I can point to others who have had similar success.

    Yes, there are times with some products that pay per click might possibly help get the ball rolling. Yet, without proper coding, descriptions and graphics no amount of pay per click is gonna help.
