In my last post I mentioned that I had added a little eBay button on the right side of this site, which is part of their affiliate program. I decided to change the site up a little more and add a 468×60 eBay banner to the top of all pages. I really want to promote this campaign so what better way to do it than to blog about it. Every time someone clicks on the eBay banner or button and buys something from eBay, I get a percentage of the commission. This may be a good or bad thing. Let’s say for example someone comes to this site and clicks the affiliate marketing eBay banner, and they buy an mp3 player for $500. eBay’s commission on this item depends on what it was listed for, but let’s just say their commission is $10 and my percentage is 40%, I would receive $4 for one single click!

Obviously the conversion rate is not very high in terms people actually buying something from eBay, but if just one person buys an expensive toy, I get paid a large amount. I am just testing out eBay affiliate marketing program, and I will have future updates on how it is doing. I am thinking about rotating between the 468×60 Google Adsense ad and eBay’s ad, does anyone have any thoughts on that? What do people think about the new banner? Updates to this post will come soon.
