I am using Godaddy to build a website at http://www.marginfactory.com. Godaddy requires to use their excel template to upload products and I have sucessfully uploaded products. However, the product images are not importing into godaddy properly. Do you have any ideas of what I may be doing wrong? Below is an example of what I am copying and pasting into the excel template under the label "Image Alternate Text"

Currently, what I am doing is saving your file to text and using HTTRacker to convert per your instructions. I can then upload the images in mass quantities. But then I have to go back into Godaddy and assign a photo to each product 1 at a time. There has to be an easire way that I am missing.

I can be reached at (304) 421-8900.

Thanks for your help.

    "Image Alternate Text" is a field for text describing what's in the image. So if the picture were a dog bowl, the alternate text would say something like "Dog Bowl". You can use the Item title for this field. Alternate text displays if the image can't be loaded into a person's browser, and it also appears when you mouse over a picture.

    Since you have downloaded the pictures, and you also have the paths to the pictures, you'll need to ask Godaddy how to proceed. They should be able to tell you how to upload them in bulk. The name of the picture matches the item number of the item, so maybe that will help them get them set up. For example, item KK025 has a picture called KK025.jpg.

    I have another question regarding UCC. I have one vendor that asks for my
    UCC membership number to register with them. Can I use the Koleimport UCC
    membership number and if so what is that number?
