How do I make money with the Tour Dates widget?

First, join the SeatGeek affiliate program (http://seatgeek.com/partners) and get an affiliate id. You can enter that affiliate id in the sidebar widget and as a parameter in the shortcode like so [seatgeek_events artist=“Lady Gaga“ display_limit=”5″ affiliate_id=“23”].
SeatGeek affiliates receive 50% of all ticket commissions.

What options do the widget and the shortcode accept?

You can use the following options with your shortcode display_limit which is the number of events and artist and affiliate_id. The shortcode sample below shows how to include these options.

How do I embed the shortcode in my site?

Simply add the shortcode like so

<div>
[seatgeek_events artist="Lady Gaga" display_limit="5" affiliate_id="23"]
</div>

What if I misspell the artist name?

If the artist name doesn’t match our artist name, you’ll likely get a response that the artist has no tours. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you spelled the artist’s name wrong;

Can this widget also be used for sports teams?

Yes! You can add a sports team (e.g. “Boston Red Sox”) instead of an artist

Can I show results from more than one artist?

At the moment, we only return results from one artist.
