Great news!
Finally, I added a feature that allows importing customers' reviews in your site directly from AliExpress. It was a difficult task because AliExpress API does not return this data and I had to invent additional module.
Check this video to find out how it works now and don’t forget to update the Plugin on your site!

ATTENTION!
AliExpress presented a New Commission Structure.
This Commission Structure is a part of AliExpress Affiliate Program Service Agreement, it describes the commission rate affiliates may earn as a publisher.
1.Standard commission rates per product category (Table 1)
2.Incentive commission rates (Table 2)
Standard Commission Rate
Now the standard commission rate per product category is applicable to all types of websites.
Table 1: Fixed commission rates per product category
Incentive Commission Rates
Performance incentives will be based on a total sales contribution made in the previous month.
Performance Incentives
Performance incentives will be based on a total sales contribution made in the previous month.
Table 2: Performance Incentives
Please note that the calculation of the commission starts on the 10th of each month and ends on the 9th of the following month. For example: from November 10th until December 9th.
Example 1
John contributed to a sales total of US $400,000 by promoting AliExpress in October 2015. According to the Performance Incentive table, John will be entitled to an additional 2% commission on all the orders placed in the following month (starting on the 10th).
On November 15th two orders were placed by customers during sessions initiated through affiliate link: 1 order in the category of Apparel & Accessories – total amount of US $20, and 1 order in the Jewelry & Watches category – total amount of US $35.
The calculation of the commission earned in November will look as follows:
US $20 * (8% Apparel & Accessories Category + 2% Performance Incentive) + US $35 * (8% Jewelry & Watches + 2% Performance Incentive) = US $5.5.
That's really cool! In spite of the fact that previous commission rate was from 3% to 50%, actually I did not see many products that could bring more than 5%.

As you might already know, AliExpress recently increased its affiliate commission to 8%, whilst also simultaneously cutting the cookies time limit from 30-days to one session. This became a problem for many affiliates since their income dropped. Thankfully those who had used AliPlugin did not suffer as much, since AliExpress affiliate sites have lower dependency on cookies.
Despite this, I saw a an opportunity to improve the plugin further and integrated new features that should help AliExpress affiliates.
Look how it works:
When a potential buyer visits a product page on your affiliate store, he sees an attractive price for the item. He also sees an active timer and a strong call-to-action informing him that this is a limited time offer (“Today’s Deal”), and in an hour or two (the timer shows a countdown) the price will be higher.
As a result, the visitor goes to AliExpress being highly motivated to make an urgent purchase – and his motivation is even stronger than before. Ultimately this means that you can multiply the number of purchases made within the first session – and your income grows significantly.
One more thing to boost your profits!
I have also added a new affiliate program to the plugin. Now you can earn not only with AliExpress, but also with Alibaba – the world’s greatest eCommerce platform, initially created for wholesalers but also available for single-item purchases. Amongst other things, Alibaba’s affiliate program is popular for its good commissions – $3.50 for just contacting a supplier, and – ATTENTION! – 30-day cookies.
(Click here to learn more).
How it works
Your product pages are now provided with additional “Learn How to Buy It Even Cheaper” links, right under the Buy Now button. Upon clicking the link a user sees a pop-up with brief and clear instructions on how to find the item on Alibaba.com and buy it at an unbelievably low price. As soon as he contacts a supplier, you get $3.50 in commissions.
This new feature is optional, so you can switch it on and off as required.
In summary, by using the improved AliPlugin you can not only maintain your current profits, but also even boost them.

Seven Tips to Get Succeed with Your AliExpress Affiliate Site
1. Choose the right niche
To get a better idea about what niche to choose go to your AliExpress affiliate account and download ‘Bestselling Products Data Feed’.
Find the products with the highest purchase volume and decide what niche to choose.
2. Upload the right products
AliPlugin has some filters you should play with before adding products to your site. Try to find and import products with a max. possible Purchase Volume and Feedback Score.
Don’t forget to pay attention to a Product Rating as well.
3. Add not more than 20,000 – 25,000 products per site
Even if you have a powerful server with a perfect hosting solution it is not recommended adding more than 25,000 items per site, because of WordPress databases that can slow down your site loading speed.
4. Check how many pages of your site are indexed by Google
One of the advantages of the sites built with AliPlugin is that they usually start generating organic traffic quickly, even if you don't do any promotion work (however it is highly recommended of course). After you complete import using the plugin you get a lot of products on your store. Plenty of products on your site mean a lot of pages which Google starts indexing with the help of so called long tail keywords in product descriptions. As a result you get many pages indexed by Google = more organic traffic = more sales = more commission.
That’s the reason why you should check the number of pages indexed by Google time to time. To find out how many indexed pages your site has, go to Google.com and search for SITE:YOURDOMAIN.COM.
5. Add customers reviews to the products
AliPlugin has an option to add reviews to the products on your site.
Don’t ignore this feature, since these are real reviews taken directly from AliExpress and what is more important these reviews are located on separate AliExpress server that is hidden from Google indexation. It means that when you add these reviews to your site you get some unique content loved by Google.
6. Activate ‘Today’s Deal’ or ‘Hot Deals’ timer
When a potential buyer visits a product page on your affiliate store, he sees a really great price for the item. He also sees an active timer and a strong call-to-action informing him that this is a limited time offer (“Today’s Deal”), and in an hour or two (the timer shows a countdown) the price will be higher.
As a result, the visitor goes to AliExpress being highly motivated to make an urgent purchase – and his motivation is even stronger than before. Ultimately this means that you can multiply the number of purchases made within the first session - and your income grows significantly.
7. Create and connect social pages to your site
Now I am working on an interesting solution – social promo module for AliPlugin. It will auto post your products on major social networks with links to your website, will find other niche related groups, will Like posts and leave comments without your assistance. It will require only one-time setup. The mission of this tool is to provide us with a good source of social media traffic, reducing the dependence from Google organic traffic. I am testing this new tool now and very satisfied with results so far. So, stay tuned!
btw, I called this new plugin 'SocialRabbit'. Logo attached

Finally got access to AliExpress API to build an affiliate site. Got the instructions - WTF!!! Thank God, it's in English.
Thanks for this! Really helpful
There are quite many complaints recently regarding a long time approval process and getting API key from AliExpress. Besides, AliExpress support is too slow and rarely respond to our questions.
I have an idea about working with ePN - eCommerce Partners Network which officially offers AliExpress affiliate program on its own platform. I am familiar with this system and must admit that it is rather convenient and reliable.
Here are the main benefits:
- Affiliate rate starting from 8.5% (AliExpress pays 8%)
- Daily automatic orders approval
- Detailed transaction information
- Weekly payouts
- Different payment options
- Responsive support team
You can register and check everything yourself here.
So, my idea is to add ePN system to AliPlugin that a user can choose if he wants to work with ePN or directly with AliExpress.
Opinions, questions?
