So just what exactly is an eBay affiliate program you may be
asking? Well, actually it's fairly simple. If you send
anyone to eBay from your website or link, and they sign up
or buy anything, you make commissions.
What eBay will put in your hands are some great tools and
brief tutorials that are there to help you set up your RSS
feeds and or your links for integration into the design of
your website. Becoming an affiliate of the most
successfully converting and innovative program on the
internet will earn you 50% to 75% commissions on the revenue
eBay generates from every sale the customer has made coming
from your website and 25 to 35 dollar bonus commissions
called ACRU's, from each new member that becomes active
after signing up.
Be sure not to confuse your commissions with that of the
total sale the customer makes. You will only earn a
commission that is equal to usually about half of the
profits eBay makes from the sale. Let's say, for example,
someone from your website goes to eBay, signs up and buys
something. They bid on an item that is a hundred dollars
and they win the auction. Ebay's profit from the sale may
be, let's say, $10...then you would make a portion of that
profit, around $5 or more, based on if you are earning 50%
or 75% commissions.
In the end you would make $25 from the sign up, plus a
possible $7.50(75%) commission off the sale, for a total of
$32.50 (these are ONLY estimated amounts given as example
ONLY.) Not too bad considering your are now an eBay
business, with no inventory, no shipping, no dropshipping,
and no having to deal with customer satisfaction. You are
making profits from everyone else's hard work. It's so easy
it almost seems unfair.
This is what Ebay recommends: Getting traffic to your page
is another way to increase your earnings. To get more
visitors, you may think about a paid search campaign for
your site (please have a look at our paid search pages!),
but natural search tips can also help you for free!
Things to DO to increase natural traffic: 1. Create unique
content! 2. Repeat relevant keywords throughout your pages
3. Refresh content regularly! Robots and users like new
content 4. Use title tags - page titles; 6-10 words of
relevant keywords found throughout the page 5. Use short
named URL and file names to enable search engines to crawl
your site 6. Utilize your error pages to redirect users that
are "lost" 7. Increase the relevance of your links: use "Go
to eBay!" instead of "Click here!" 8. Ask other relevant
websites to point to your site 9. Submit your site to the
engines: let search engines know about you! 10. Utilize
competitive research to learn more about online marketing
direct from the competition Don't Do These Things: 1. Make
use of frames: they are often too complex for crawlers to
index 2. Use too many search-box navigation or drop down
menus:crawlers are incapable of following them 3. Display
hidden / invisible text: it is often looked at as "cheating"
by search engines user referral Take advantage of eBay's
brand
With just a little effort, you can earn a lot of money in
the eBay Affiliate Program. All you have to do is drive
traffic to eBay. This can be done by creating your own
store, which is mostly for advanced users that can insert
eBay's RSS feeds and code from the editor kit into your
website code. Or you can find a company that will set up a
personal website for you with the code already included.
You will most likely see awesome results in a very short
time frame. This is because you will have a website with
constantly changing and updating unique content, that search
engines are begging for, if you have done things correctly.
You will be guiding people to products that are already
proven converting to a website that is one of the most
successful in the world.
