Hey Jeff. I did get an answer back within I would say 1 week. They requested some more stuff from me and I let it go over a week and they closed my ticket. They said that if I wanted to pursue it again to reference my old call number. I tell you what. I will make a new post and list what their response was. I will try and do that tonight yet.

Have you had a response back from eBay about increasing the 5,000 calls limit?
How long did they take and how difficult was it?

I hit the 5,000 calls limit today, I think it’s due to Googlebot crawling one of my bigger sites.

Agreed

I am actually going to be building a ebay/clickbank/amazon/something else and so on style of sites and start split testing which program actually pays out and if anything getting something from many is better than getting next to nothing from just one.

I will be setting up sites that have more purchases versus browsing items like vehicles mainly are. I think getting a ton of active buyers on the low end items will help make up for the many clicks that are brought from vehicle searches and generally end with only a few winning bids.

If there was a way to filter browsing visitors from the big ticket items I think my epc will bump up no problem.

All trial and error.

Keep up the great work!

I’m just not seeing the downturn in high price items. Each time I get one, the last 3 days in a row, it has translated into .50 per click payouts for that day for all my campaigns, not just the one that hit. For the month so far I am at .25 for all campaigns. My biggest fear is what is happening to some affiliates not getting their payouts b/c they are unable to furnish server raw access logs. Are you kidding me? So, like the both of you (I’m the other guy mentioned above) I’m moving to integrate Amazon. I have never made a dime using the program but haven’t really tried that hard either.

Pretty promising plugin I see already is Amazon Autoposter. With a little work I don’t think it will be too difficult to customize and get this thing cron’d up.

So funny you brought up Amazon. Another person that visits my blog asked me the same question today and I started working on an Amazon site.

I think what I will do is setup a site that alternates showing Amazon and eBay results. I will have to work out the details and get this up later in the week. So then we can see on one single site which will work best.

I used Amazon many moons ago but never had much luck. I am going to give it a try just to gets some eggs in another basket. Since over in the EPN forum it appears that many folks are getting quality reviews and losing their accounts. If that would ever happen to me I want to have some sort of backup plan.

Looking good, like the new site and enjoy watching the progress. I am actually going to try and check amazon vs. ebay affiliate programs. I have used amazon in the past and I chose ebay due to the niches I was working with (vehicles and so forth) but now that those don’t really pay off I want to test amazon again and compare the earnings.

Before it was ebays cookies that I liked over amazons short tracked cookies BUT if I am getting tagged for each click a person makes from my sites BEFORE they finally buy all that does is diminish my return.

Have you used amazon recently or previously AND if not it might be a worthwhile test to see if earnings are better.

The Bid to Get site looks cool, small and fast selling items really do work. Trying to locate items that people only click once and BUY THEN makes the most sense.

I thought a great niche would be shipping supplies or other b2b items that businesses buy on ebay constantly and know what they want.

Bummed about the higher ticket items as well. Ebay really is messing up a solid program. I MISS my acru’s!!!!!!
