In my last article I mentioned the possibility of making extra income from eBay by allowing others to do the selling for you. This is done by many using their affiliate program and a couple different methods of creating websites specifically designed for EBay affiliates. BANS was the software I brought up in the last post but there are several others that are similar. Anyone that is already set up and running a website designed for the EBay affiliate program needs to be aware that there are major changes taking place.
EBay makes a major change in their affiliate program beginning on April 1st. Currently, EBay uses Commission Junction and Valueclick to handle most of their affiliate program tracking and payments. The eBay affiliate program has been relied upon by many as a primary source of extra income. I must say I have used it in the past, but it hasn't been a significant part of the extra money I make on the Internet.
According to eBay bringing their affiliate program in house will have several benefits to their users including:
- Better reporting of statistics
- Targeted Banners and rich media
- Geo-targeting and landing page improvements
- Global registration to many countries at once.
Ebay will launch its new affilate program and maintain its existing partnership with Commision Junction through May 1st. Anyone wanting to participate or that is already a part of the ebay affiliate program should make sure they are set up with the new program before the May 1st deadline.
Addition information can be found on Ebay in their affiliate section.
