Power your site with Yahoo! Shopping

The Yahoo! Shopping APIs enable you to use Yahoo! comparison shopping data to power your site or application. Using our APIs, you can search our database of millions of product offers from thousands of merchants to create applications that provide comparison shopping and product search functionality, as well as display user reviews. Best of all, our paid syndication beta allows you to generate additional revenue directly from your site!

The following APIs are available for use:

* Searches the millions of products and thousands of third party merchants that are cataloged at www.shopping.yahoo.com . Yahoo! Shopping helps users find the right product at the right price, anytime, anywhere. In general, the order in which the shopping search results will be displayed is determined by an algorithmic ranking; however, many merchants included in Yahoo! Shopping pay to be a part of Yahoo! Shopping or have another financial relationship with Yahoo!, which could in some cases affect the order of results.
