The most common way of doing this is by presenting within the site’s product details page, which is usually manually assigned.

Behind the Design
As always, here are some insights from the designers:
“We designed the brand logo section as well as the navigation below to be very clear so that this theme looks neat and attractive. We made the single product page to look clean so users would concentrate more on products and thus is free of distractions. Contents are on the left side, while the add-to-cart button are on the right side, beside the contents.
Don’t miss the opportunity to get this free Balita Theme because there are not many ways you can get a free premium theme everyday. Last but not least, once again, thank you Smashing Magazine for the opportunity.”
Thank you, Tokokoo. We appreciate your work and your good intentions!
