Mark here is the link to the eBay partner network. https://ebaypartnernetwork.com/files/hub/en-US/index.html If you take a look around it you can find lots of neat tools to enhance a blog or website to earn commissions from sales on eBay. I am also a member of Pepperjam and I found they are slow to qualify people for their programs. Ebay qualified me in a few days where as I am still waiting (several months now) to be qualified for eBay on Pepperjam.

Hey Knowledgelady;

Sure. I have been a member of EPN since they left CJ. I found eBay’s affiliate program customer service to be lacking (perhaps it is better now).

By contrast, PJN has fantastic customer service.

As far as I know, the payouts are identical (last I checked).

Not sure what you mean by a “mini ebay store”. Sounds interesting. Got an example?

Regards,
Mark

Mark, didn’t you know that eBay has it’s own affiliate program. Just sign up at eBay and cut out Pepperjam (since Pepperjam will be taking a cut from your commissions). Also at the eBay affiliate site you can grab your own codes and set up mini eBay store to put on your own blogs.

Man — thanks Brad. I have to give the credit for that to a buddy of mine that wrote an eBook about how to treat email subscribers…

I’m really glad I subscribed to your newsletter.. Yours is one that doesn’t fill my inbox with useless plugs & affiliate offers. 🙂 Keep up the good work!

@Paulette; I spoke with Wade about Amazon. Wade has picked back up on his efforts on the product — called phpZon. It’s actually available to existing customers only and works quite well.

However, there are some more features he’s adding to it, to make it a solid official release available to the general public. The price will go up, once those are complete, but for now, existing phpBay Pro customers can purchase a “pre-release” version at a substantial discount.

Expect the first official release to be complete within the next few weeks.

Mark:

You’ve indicated that you use phpBay to build your eBay sites. Is there a similar script for building Amazon sites?

By: Mark Mason

Mark Mason — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 20:31:06 +0000

@Rich — nope — you just apply to the eBAY program from within PJN. You never deal with EPN directly. I don’t even have an EPN account anymore….

I’ve purchased your Wordpess Theme and will be using it on a few sites. What are you using for your news feed on the BMW Car Parts site?

Loved the video.

In reply to Forest. Thanks Man. It was a blast. Sorry you missed the deadline. You should send to James anyway. His use of the video sent me a TON of traffic. If he likes it you might get lucky...

Hey Mark, I did see that video, first rate and easy to understand.
Congrats on winning.
I use mnf toll every single day and would be lost without it. I know that the Google tools will come up with something similar but microniche finder too is so easy to use, I love it.

Hey a question about the eBay php plugin. I am an affiliate with P-J, but would I have to have an account at eBay to use it?

Awesome stuff Mark… I created an MNF vid and missed the comp (forgot to enter!!) 🙂

I love the product and just beta tested a great new feature!
