Hey there,I am trying to mass add green products to my website to get that section running.My friend suggested I join the Google Affiliate Network. Businesses on this network have product feeds that I can dynamically import. Most of the businesses have some sort of clause like the following in their TOS:"Affiliate shall not bid on any of the words containing a Sears trademark, trade name, service mark, logo or any version or derivative there of ('Sears Marks'), including but not limited to, the words set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein through any pay-for-placement search engines or in meta-tags."What does bid mean? Are they saying that I can not have the word "Sears" in my meta tags? I currently am using dynamic meta tags that captures the product name and business name so this could be an issue unless I change it.Thanks in advance for any clarification.
