I am developing Collectors Guides for a number of my product ranges
I have investigated my options and believe there is 2 ways it can be best done
the guides are generally words and a listing in columns and rows similar to a spreadsheet
option 1
create category called eg Guides
create product called eg Guide 1
in product description use html and/or embed a link to an embedded excel file using ShareDrive
set the price to zero
need to suppress buy button when price = 0 ??
use related products functionality to link the product code for the guide to the relevant products in my shop
option 2
create articles for each Guide
in description use html and/or embed a link to an embedded excel file using ShareDrive
create a section on my home page similar to "whats new' with links to the guides
I prefer option 1, can you suggest anything else or any improvements to my thoughts
