CK: Now with internationalized Amazon links!
Added 2016-12-20 17:17:12 +0000 UTCJust a brief note for you all this week, as I continue to work on January content and my top-secret 2017 launch.
(Well, top secret unless you're a Patron, then you know what it is!)
Thanks to Patrons helping me reach my goal of paying for Crushing Krisis's (CK) hosting costs, I now have $33 of extra room in my monthly CK budget!
Since this campaign is not about profit, but about bettering CK, I immediately thought about how I could use $33 to improve the blog.
The first change is a subscription service that has been on my want-list for years: a plugin that automatically internationalizes the thousands of Amazon links in my guides.
This will be invisible to you if you are a US visitor. For visitors from other countries, now when you click on an Amazon link in a comic guide the link will take you to the product in your local version of Amazon.
I'm rolling this out to pages in batches to make sure it doesn't cause any bugs and to monitor its effect on my Amazon US traffic. If you aren't based in the US you can see it at work on Marvel Events and Spider-Man , or my Patreon-funded Ultimate Marvel and Jessica Jones pages.
Reminder: If you purchase through an Amazon or eBay link on CK I will receive a minor credit as your referrer. My credit does not affect your purchase price.
