RSS Feeds for eVintage Society Members

So who hasn't heard of eVintageSociety.com already? If you haven't, you should head over there on the double!

Babylon Mall offers a banner exchange program with eVintage Society. Any eVintage member can have their 468w x 60h pixel banner displayed on the mall homepage. Mall sellers can have the images of their choice as long as they are 210w x 300h pixels. Just email your banners or images to support@babylonmall.com and tell me where to point if someone clicks on your photo. Banners and images must be exactly those dimensions listed (the software is very picky).

Babylon Mall also supplies an RSS feed which is displayed on the eVintage Society website. Mall sellers who are eVintage Society members should put the word 'evintagesociety' (all one word) anywhere in their listings. In the near future this will be the requirement for eVintage Society members to show up on the new RSS feed.

RSS Feeds Update

The mall has had data feeds for some time now. You may recognize the icons from the mall pages:


We've just upgraded them to include an image with every item. After all - what's the point of shopping without a picture to look at? The main mall data feed as well as your individual store feeds now include images, and the feeds will look great on your blog.

Tip of the Day - Got a blog?

If you have a blog, chances are you can add RSS or data feeds to one of the page elements. With Babylon Mall, your store automatically has a data feed of your latest items, which will change over time as you add new stuff.

Try this: go to any mall store (chichichambers will do), but preferably your own. See the little XML image? It looks like this:




Click the image, and save the URL from your browser's address bar.

Now go to your blog, and plug the URL into your data feed element, and voila. Instant listings!
