How to add products by link
Adding products by link is the fastest way to get products into Socialscale. Simply paste a product URL, and Socialscale will automatically fetch the relevant product information for you.
How it works
- Copy the product link from your website or supported marketplace
- Paste the link into Socialscale
- Socialscale attempts to extract product data such as title, images, and pricing
- Once processed, the product appears in your product library
First-time setup: what to expect
When adding products from a new website or store for the first time, the initial product may fail or return an error.
This is normal.
Every store structures its product pages differently. When Socialscale encounters a new domain, we may need to fine-tune how data is extracted from that site.
What happens if an error occurs?
If the first product fails:
- Your product link is logged automatically
- Our team reviews the page structure
- We build or adjust a custom parser for that store
Once this is done, you’ll be able to add products from the same website in seconds, without errors.
After the parser is ready
Once your store is supported:
- Product links from that website will work instantly
- No additional setup is required
- You can add as many products as you want via link
In most cases, only the first product from a new domain needs attention.
Why this approach?
Instead of using generic scraping, Socialscale builds store-specific parsers to ensure:
- Higher data accuracy
- Better image and price extraction
- Fewer errors over time
This allows us to scale reliably while keeping product data clean and consistent.
