A plugin that lets the user exchange customer traffic with other ecommerce shops that have this plugin.

=== Description ===

A plugin that enables the user's products to be advertised in other users shops that also have the 'SixAds' plugin. 
In exchange, the user needs to show ads of other products in his shop (unless a paid plan is selected). 

As the name suggests, 6 ads are shown in the desired place by the user. If no paid plan is selected then if the user does not add the sixads short tag to his shop,
none of his products are shown in other stores either. The products that are being shown are selected randomly from the pool of all products in the sixads system.

One view of a product in other ecommerce store is called an impression. You can buy boosted impressions (more frequent showing of your products in other shops) in the sixads admin page. 

Currently, sixads is used by shops in shopify, weebly, wix and woocommerce.

4. The user is redirected to the sixads server and the onboarding procedure is done there.
5. In the desired place of the page (category page, product page, etc) add the short tag **[sixads]**.

=== Pricing ===

There are paid options for the plugin. A shop can buy 'boosted' impressions which greatly increases it's chances to be shown in other shops. 
Additionally, the products are shown in the first three positions which have the highest click through rate.

The main three types of options for acquiring boosted impressions are:

* One time fee - a shop pays a fixed sum and get a certain amount of impressions. 

* Monthly plan - every month a shop is charged and gets a certain amount of impressions. 

* Yearly plan - a shop is charged yearly and every year it receives a huge amount of impressions. 

=== Data usage === 

By agreeing with the terms and conditions of the SixAds plugin the user allows the app to pull data ONLY from the WooCommerce API. 
The data that is used is mostly about the shop, it's items, webhooks and various dates.
