You may be asking at this point, what exactly is an eBay affiliate program? Actually, it is very simple. If anyone visits eBay, from clicking a link inside your website, you make commissions if they buy anything or sign up as a new member. 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. So presumably, you would make around $32.50 total as a commission...$25 from the new member signing up with eBay, plus an estimated $7.50 commission from the sale (remember these are JUST estimated figures for example purposes only.) This is certainly not a bad amount considering you have no inventory, no drop-shipping or shipping, and you don't have to provide any service to customers for your eBay business. You are making money by NOT selling products on eBay, just letting others do the hard work. It's so simple it doesn't even really seem to be fair does it? How do you increase your sales/earnings? Simple, this is what eBay suggests: Get more traffic to your website. To accomplish this, paid search traffic might be an option that you consider, however natural search engine traffic resulting from optimization can be a free way to do this. For better optimization, DO these things: 1. Tons of unique content, the more the better 2. Include related keywords that you are targeting multiple times on individual pages 3. Update your content on a regular basis. Regular users and search engine crawlers both love this 4. Do not let your URL's or file names get too lengthy, keep them short and relevant 5. Title tags and page titles are important. Use 6 to 10 keywords to be found within the pages that are relevant 6. Rather than "Click here now!", use phrases such as "Find it on eBay now!" 7. Use error pages effectively to help out users that might get lost 8. Manually submit to the major search engines to make sure they even know your are in existence 9. Get one-way and exchange links. One-ways are much more powerful 10. Never stop watching and analyzing the competition to help your marketing and direction Always AVOID the following: 1. The use of frames in your website. They are not liked by search engines and they confuse those using your website 2. Never use hidden or text that is not visible. Certain way to make the search engines avoid your site for life 3. Stay away from over-use of search navigation boxes and/or drop down menus. Crawlers can not follow these, and will hurt your rankings. 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. With eBay affiliate stores, it is probable that you will see great results in very small amounts of time. If created the correct way, your site will have converting products, and powerful, unique content that will be forever updating and changing, which is what the search engine crawlers are very fond of. Which means ultimately that you will be profiting from good, natural traffic from targeted keywords and niches.
