———————–
Note for Deeplinking: Affiliates who want their traffic to bypass the Viking Home/landing page and send traffic straight to either our Consumer or Business channel can do so by adding an extra tag to the end or their destination URL.
To send traffic to the business channel, add &browsemode=business to the end of their destination URL
To send traffic to the consumer channel, add &browsemode=consumer to the end of their destination URL
So, for example, irrespective of a customer’s cookie settings or past browsing history, the following link would take customers to copier paper on our consumer site.. White Copier Paper – Viking Direct
If you have any questions about implementing this, please contact hero@webgains.com
