FAQ
General
What is Pixazza?
Pixazza turns static images into engaging content, while generating incremental income for web publishers. Pixazza resembles Google AdSense™, except for images instead of text.
How does Pixazza work?
A consumer simply mouses over any image on participating websites to reveal a selection of products similar in look and style. One click goes directly to the product page of an associated advertiser to learn more and make a purchase. It's like having the product guide in a print magazine just a click away from any picture.
Publishers
How do I get started with Pixazza?
Simply add a line of Javascript to your pages, after which the images on their site are reviewed by Pixazza's network of product experts, who hand pick from millions of products across dozens of merchants to deliver informative results to the consumer.
How long does it take for product picks to be added to my site's images?
Our network of product experts apply their efforts according to an image's traffic. High traffic images commonly get reviewed the same hour they are posted, while low traffic images may take longer.
Which advertisers do you use?
We work with over 50 established internet advertisers — including Amazon, BlueFly, eLuxury, Macy's, Shopbop, and Zappos — that offer millions of products.
Is it easy to integrate Pixazza on my site?
Yes, just apply for a publisher account and add a line of javascript to your web pages. No need for datafeeds, any special markup, or other integration.
Do I need to change the way I handle images on my site?
No changes are required. Publishers continue to license, store, and serve their images just as before. Pixazza only serves its experts' product picks.
How much revenue can Pixazza generate for my site?
It varies based on your site's level of traffic, audience demographics, and types of images.
Self-Serve Publishers
What is Self-Serve?
Self-Serve is the version of Pixazza for publishers and bloggers who are looking to self-annotate their own images using the Pixazza platform.
By enabling publishers of all sizes, to tag their own images, Pixazza offers publishers another way to add engaging content to their site, increase session times, drive additional traffic and generate incremental revenue.
How is Self-Serve different from Pixazza's regular service for publishers?
It's actually very similar in that both tools provide publishers with a way to allow consumers to find out information about and shop directly from the images on their web sites. Self-Serve is targeted toward publishers and bloggers who want to tag their own images.
Who is Self-Serve for?
Any publisher with an image-rich site that is looking to further engage their audience, monetize their images and add incremental revenue. We designed this service for publishers to have full control and all the necessary capabilities to mark-up their images themselves.
How can publishers make money with Self-Serve?
A publisher can make money by tagging the products within the images on their site. When a consumer comes to the site and moves the mouse over a picture and then clicks to buy a product, the merchant who sold the product pays Pixazza a commission. Pixazza shares the commission with the publisher.
How does a publisher get paid?
Publishers who meet the minimum monthly earnings amount of $10 will receive a check every month. If a publisher doesn't meet the minimum for the month, their monthly earnings roll over to the next month.
How many images will a publisher be able to tag?
As many as the publisher likes.
How does a publisher sign-up for Self-Serve?
It's very simple: They sign up on our website. Once the publisher is approved as a publisher, it just takes a few minutes to enable your site.
