How do I create a Sellit Mini-Shop for my Yahoo store?
Here's what you do with your Yahoo Webstore/Small Business Account:
Sign into your Yahoo Small business Webstore Account
Click on Store Control Panel
Click on Store Manager
On the Store Manager front page, in the Promote section, click Search Engines. This takes you to the Promote Your Site in Search Engines page (shown below).
Locate the objinfo.xml and catalog.xml field and select the Enabled radio button on both
Click Done.
Yahoo also has an explanation of this process here. Make sure both catalog.xml and objinfo.xml are enabled.
Here's how to create the store once you've completed the Yahoo steps above:
At Sellit.com click the "For Merchants" tab. Enter your store address into the field and click "Get Started"
Your store address should look something like: http://mystore.com
Once you've enabled "objinfo.xml" (shown here). Log into Sellit.com and click the "My Account" tab at the top of the page. In your Admin section click the blue "Refresh Button" (shown below).
Please note: Once you've enabled objinfo.xml through your Yahoo! store settings, it may take some time to update, so be patient!
I exported objinfo.xml and my images are still blurry!
This is most likely caused because you have not uploaded large product images in your Yahoo! store. The size of your large product images within the Mini-Shop are typically displayed around 400 pixels wide by 400 pixels tall.
You can change your images by logging into your Yahoo! Store Manager. Under the "Edit" heading click "Catalog Manager" and then click "Manage your Items." Now you can edit any individual product by adding a larger image.
After you have saved new images in your Yahoo! store, return to Sellit.com. Under the "My Account tab," click the blue refresh button to see the new changes.
Please note: Once you've enabled objinfo.xml through your Yahoo! store settings, it may take some time to update, so be patient!
