How to launch your site- step by step

  1. In the section "Registration of a new site"
    1. If you have Russian traffic then go and login to OwnDating.ru - russian version of this affiliate program, if you promote sites in German or Italian or other european languages then please write to the administration about it.
    2. Insert the domain name of the site. Here it is possible 3 possibilities
      1. You register a new domain name at a registrar. Then you have to write down www.NewDomain.com in the field "Your own domain name". At the registrar in the domain settings you have to write IPs of the site: www А IP (where IP is any ip from region 77.234.200.10-77.234.200.16) in the settings of the zone of your domain name
      2. If you have already running site and you want to use for the affiliate program the domain name of the third level to your existing site, for example Love.YourSite.com. Then you will need to add  in the description of the zone of your domain the note like love A IP (where IP is any ip from region 77.234.200.10-77.234.200.16)
      3. If you do not have your own domain name, and you want to test and see how the affiliate program works, then choose the domain name of the third level of our domain w-ru.com, for example test.w-ru.com or russianwomen.w-ru.com and write down this name (test or russianwomen correspondingly) in the field of a free domain name in front of  w-ru.com
    3. Choose the design you like and click the button "Submit". If you know html, then you can change it or completely redo it.
  2. Congratulations! You have registered a new site in our partner program. Now you need to fill it some text fields:
    1. The name of the site - it is shown on all the pages of the site. Recommended to use the domain name so that a user could remember on what site he is. For example, recommended domain name of the domain www.loverussiangirls.com is www.LoveRussianGirls.com
    2. The prefix of the title of the site. It will always be written in the beginning of the tag TITLE on all pages of the site (it is what is written in the titleline of the window of a browser when the site is opened)  You can use here either your domain name (key words separated by space. For the previous example it will be Love Russian Girls), or any keywords (connected by sense, as it is not a doorway  :) ), that you think are good.
    3. The Headline of the site. The tag TITLE on the index page is made like this: "The prefix of the title of the site:  The headline of the site" . That's why the Headline of the site should be a sensible sentence, filled by your keywords and with motivation for a user (it is very often is shown as a result in search engines and users should have the desire to go to the site
    4. The description of the site - Tag meta description - comprehendable sentence of description of the site, also is often used in the search engine result and also should be made motivating.
    5. Key words of the site - Tag meta keywords, recommended to fill in by keywords, that describe the site. As a separator a comma should be used.
    6. Click the button "Save"
  3. Congratulate you once more! The site is ready and running. If it is done in the sub domain w-ru.com, then it should already work. If it is your own domain, then changes in the domain settings at the registrar ( dns servers) or in the dns of the provider, usually begins to work within 24 hours.
  4. You will easily grasp the statistics on the site, on the one hand - nothing complex, on the other hand- it is the most complete and detailed statistics from all that we find on different affiliate programs.
  5. You have many possibilities to change how  the site looks and the words on the first page of the site. Let's look into it:
    1. The simplest is to change the texts on the index page, for example to add several additional paragraphs (or change the ratio of the key words)
    2. More complex - you can upload images and completely change all the index page with the file of the style and change the header on all pages according to your modified design, change and add links in the footer of the site
    3. New dynamic blocks can be added to the index page. The new blocks available: top pictures of the contests (men, women, women in bikini, women with a child), online users (online women, online men), new users (new women, new men), feedbacks (text block).
    4. switching on counters of men and women on the index page will be useful if you want to write the number of girls from Ukraine and the number of girls on the site (that gives you opportunity to use keywords sensibly)
    5. The section  "Additional text page" is useful for those who want to fill his site with his own texts and for those who works on  promotion his site in the search engines or takes part in link exchange programs.
  6. For those, who want to place his banners on the site, there is a possibility to place unlimited number of banners, counters etc on the site. Their position on the page you set independently by editing of the index page, header and footer of all other pages of the site- you need just to put the  a variable there. What is very useful is that these variables are common for all your sites. If you need to change a banner on all your sites, you just need to edit one variable.
  7. Success to you in promotion of your site! Place links to the site, promote it by any available for you means (not spam).

Domain names and DNS

  1. You register a new domain name for the site. At the registrar in the domain settings you have to write down the address of the server then write as a host the address from region 77.234.200.10-77.234.200.16. Within 24 hours everything will work.
  2. If you have already a running project with traffic and you want to give for dating site hte domain name of the third level of your project  (for example, your site is  www.site.com, and the domain name for dating site you want to make  russianwomen.site.com), then it is necessary то write down in the dns settings at the registrar or at the provider to write down the host russianwomen and give the any ip address from region 77.234.200.10-77.234.200.16 to it.
  3. If you use our domain of the third level, for example test.w-ru.com, then no changes to settings is needed, everything works immediately. But usage of this variant, though it is free, is not recommended because of the following reasons:
    1. The search engines can dislike the fact that there are too many domains of the third level to our site.
    2. Light approach- expense of 10 dollars for the domain is not big, but it shows the seriousness of the project, seriousness of your attitude (the cost of the domain name with time only grows, as the project begins to be surrounded by links and popularity).

The main settings of the site

These settings help to give  "individuality" to the site with minimum efforts, at least, for search engines and for users, whom the search engines will send. There the name of the site that is shown on all pages is included and all the main settings for search engines.

  1. The name of the site - it is shown on all the pages of the site. Recommended to use the domain name so that a user could remember on what site he is. For example, recommended domain name of the domain  www.loverussiangirls.com is www.LoveRussianGirls.com
  2. The prefix of the title of the site. It will always be written in the beginning of the tag TITLE on all pages of the site (it is what is written in the titleline of the window of a browser when the site is opened)  You can use here either your domain name (key words separated by space. For the previous example it will be Love Russian Girls), or any keywords (connected by sense, as it is not a doorway  :) ), that you think are good.
  3. The Headline of the site. The tag TITLE on the index page is made like this: "The prefix of the title of the site:  The headline of the site". That's why the Headline of the site should be a sensible sentence, filled by your keywords and with motivation for a user (it is very often is shown as a result in search engines and users should have the desire to go to the site
  4. The description of the site - Tag meta description - comprehendable sentence of description of the site, also is often used in the search engine result and also should be made motivating.
  5. Key words of the site - Tag meta keywords, recommended to fill in by keywords, that describe the site. As a separator a comma should be used.

Extended editing of the site

You have opportunity to completely change the index page of the site- to change design with your images, blocks etc. You can also fill the site with new material (for users and/or for search engines). During the edit of the templates a big number of variables is used- they are written down in braces. For example, the variable {ADESIGN} is the directory, where the images are placed, which are downloaded to the site

Downloading of the images

Here you can download images for using them on the index page (if you want to change the design)  or for using on the additional pages that you create in the section Additional text pages. Available formats for the images are jpg, gif, png. For using them on the pages of your site and on the index page you need as a path to the image to write down the variable {ADESIGN} (instead of this variable a link to your home directory will be inserted) The images can be deleted.

Blocks of the index page

Dynamic blocks allow to make the index page more interesting for users who came to the site for the first time. For using the following dynamic blocks with pictures of the users of the site are available:

  1. Contests
    1. Top photo of men
    2. Top photos of girls
    3. Top photos of a girl in bikini
    4. Top photos of men with children
    5. Top photos of women with children.
  2. Online users
  3. New users

The inset of the blocks to the templates is made by the next way:

 <!-- BEGIN row_pset1 -->
 <td>
  <table>
   <tr>
    <td rowspan="2">
     <a href="{row_pset1.IMAGES_HREF}" target="_blank">
      <img src="{row_pset1.PHOTO}" width="{row_pset1.PHOTO_WIDTH}" height="{row_pset1.PHOTO_HEIGHT}">
     </a>
    </td>
    <td>
     {row_pset1.NAME}
     {row_pset1.AGE}y.o.
     {row_pset1.COUNTRY}
     {row_pset1.CITY}
    </td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
    <td><a href="{row_pset1.PROFILE_HREF}" target="_blank">profile</a></td>
   </tr>
  </table>
 </td>
 <!-- END row_pset1 -->

In this example  <!-- BEGIN row_pset1 --> shows the beginning of the block, and  <!-- END row_pset1 -- > shows its end. The text between will be traced not once but as many times as you have written during the editing the block in "Number of shown pictures". row_pset1 is the name of the block, it should be written in front of each variable.  1 in this case is the number of the block, you receive it during the creation of the block.

only for contests:

{ROW_PSET[N]_TOP_LASTMONTH_HREF} - link to this top of the previous month

For blocks of new and online users the next global variables are available (in the blocks or outside it):
{ROW_PSET[N]_TITLE} - the name of the block
{ROW_PSET[N]_HREF} - link to the gallery
where [N] = number in the name of the block (for example [N] = 2, if the name of the block is row_pset2, and variable of the title takes the form ROW_PSET2_TITLE)

The next available block is Feedbacks of the clients of the site about its service.
For example

 <-- BEGIN row_tset1 -->
  {TEXT1}, {TEXT2}
 <!-- END row_tset1 -->

where
'TEXT1' - text of feedback
'TEXT2' - From whom this feedback is
