Worst funny blunders Zazzle Storekeepers Make #1: affiliate perspective

I really adore the fabulous designs made by the aritst-storekeepers over at Zazzle. As an artist of sorts myself, I often wish I could create some of the amazing artwork I see there.

So I do the next best thing, I promote those storekeepers and the designs that look so cool on the vast range of products Zazzle has to offer.

I even went so far as to build a tool to help me with that goal. ZazMySite lets me build product grids (using my referral id and trackinfg codes) with share buttons beside each product, making it easy to share / pin / tweet to some of the major places. And the good thing about it is that my referral id and tracking codes goes with the product wherever it goes!

But the downside is that I'm always bumping into the laughably not-appropriate-for-affiliate-websites.

So I thought I'd do an occassional post, highlighting the funniest / dumbest I come across. But don't worry about being named and shamed, I won't mention the stores by name!

So here's todays offering. Every item comes from a different store. Oh, look what's in each product's description - absolutley identical text! And most of it's not their own, they've just lifted Zazzle's own description of the product and added their own identical keywords on the end.

One thing's for sure, I won't be using any of those stores on my store-based affiliate sites. Why not? Because the duplicated text would do nothing to enhance my page's SEO, it might even have a negative impact.

If they'd written just a sentence or two describing the actual design, then (and if they weren't also tag-spammers) I'd be happy to use their stores - with descriptions like suggested I'd be able to select the right ones for the right niches, all automatically (if it weren't for their tag-spamming!).

Oh well, their loss....

So here you go, what do you think?
