Some users have asked what templates I use with WP Robot, so I decided to share them in this post. Most are actually not very different from the default settings and just incorporate the new MIX feature for better monetization and looks.
1. Amazon Template
This template incorporates all tags of the Amazon module plus 2 eBay auctions at the bottom to give visitors an alternative.
{thumbnail}
{features}
{description}
Price: {price}
Rating: {avgrating} ({noreviews} reviews)
{link}
Or have a look at these auctions on eBay:
{auction:2}
2. Article Template
An image added in at the top to spice up the content and two ebay auctions at the bottom of the article for monetization.

{article}
{authorbox}
{auction:2}
3. Yahoo Answers Template
A Flickr thumbnail to go with the question…

For the other modules I do mainly use the default templates.
Some general Tips:
- You can use the WordPress <!–more–> tag in WP Robot to split up your posts. You could for example first display the Youtube thumbnail and description and have your visitors click the “more” link to see the video.
- You can also use tags and shortcode of 3rd party plugins in your templates. See this post for details.
As robot has youtube options … will it work with {video} into the amazon template?

Yes, you can use {video} in any template.
