You can make 50 to 75% commissions on eBay's total revenue from each sale made from a customer that has come from your site. You can also earn $25 to $35 commissions if that person was not previously an eBay customer and becomes active by bidding or buying something. To help you achieve this, eBay provides you with brief tutorials and some great tools built to help you set up your RSS feeds and/or your links to integrate into your site.
Now don't confuse this with making a percentage of the total sale. You are only making commissions on what eBay makes in profits from the sale. For instance, say you send someone to eBay from your website. They sign up as a new member, and then bid on a product that is $100 and win. Then let's suppose eBay's profit from this sale is $10. You would make a portion (most often 50% to 75%) of that profit amount.
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?
Ok, so now you're making some money here and there as an eBay affiliate. But how do you increase these numbers? Simple, you get more traffic to your website. This can be done with paid traffic, which you must be familiar with to be able to make money. Or, you can optimize your site internally and externally, to start bringing in more website traffic for free.
DO these things to get more traffic: 1. Make sure you have plenty of unique content 2. Relevant keywords should be used multiple times in the content of all pages 3. Search Engines and users alike are attracted to changing content. Update regularly! 4. Use file names and URL's that are not overly lengthy, which will let search engines crawl your site more frequently 5. Use Page Titles and Title Tags...6-10 keywords that are relevant to be found throughout the page 6. Use phrases such as "Search on eBay now!" rather than "Click Here! " to increase the effectiveness of your links 7. To guide surfers that are 'lost', make good use of error pages. 8. Make sure the search engines know you exist by submitting to them manually 9. Try to get similar websites to link to your website 10. Learn more about online marketing by analyzing the competition. Things NOT to do: 1. Use frames. They are many times unrecognizable by search engine crawlers and hard to index. 2. Use invisible/hidden text. NEVER do this, search engines can and will hurt your rankings and effectiveness 3. Use multiple drop-down menus or search box navigation boxes...they can not be followed by crawlers.
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.
