Start Your Own Money Making Business as an eBay Affiliate

Thanks for visiting our WorldVentures site.

Right now, you might be asking what an eBay affiliate program really is? Well, the answer is quite simple indeed. When someone clicks on a link within your website, and they go to eBay and sign up or buy anything, you make money from commissions.

What eBay will put in your hands are some great tools and brief tutorials that are there to help you set up your RSS feeds and or your links for integration into the design of your website. Becoming an affiliate of the most successfully converting and innovative program on the internet will earn you 50% to 75% commissions on the revenue eBay generates from every sale the customer has made coming from your website and 25 to 35 dollar bonus commissions called ACRU’s, from each new member that becomes active after signing up.

Be sure not to confuse your commissions with that of the total sale the customer makes. You will only earn a commission that is equal to usually about half of the profits eBay makes from the sale. Let’s say, for example, someone from your website goes to eBay, signs up and buys something. They bid on an item that is a hundred dollars and they win the auction. Ebay’s profit from the sale may be, let’s say, $10…then you would make a portion of that profit, around $5 or more, based on if you are earning 50% or 75% commissions.

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.

Things to DO to increase natural traffic: 1. Create unique content! 2. Repeat relevant keywords throughout your pages 3. Refresh content regularly! Robots and users like new content 4. Use title tags - page titles; 6-10 words of relevant keywords found throughout the page 5. Use short named URL and file names to enable search engines to crawl your site 6. Utilize your error pages to redirect users that are “lost” 7. Increase the relevance of your links: use “Go to eBay!” instead of “Click here!” 8. Ask other relevant websites to point to your site 9. Submit your site to the engines: let search engines know about you! 10. Utilize competitive research to learn more about online marketing direct from the competition Don’t Do These Things: 1. Make use of frames: they are often too complex for crawlers to index 2. Use too many search-box navigation or drop down menus:crawlers are incapable of following them 3. Display hidden / invisible text: it is often looked at as “cheating” by search engines user referral Take advantage of eBay’s brand

One of the easiest ways to make money online is as an eBay affiliate. All that is necessary is to find a way to send people to eBay from your website. This website can be created by you or someone else. If you are experienced with affiliate marketing and with a little html, you can set up your own stores with your own feeds from eBay’s toolkit. Or you can find someone to build it for you, or find a software that will create the sites for you online. Some are set up to look like real, professionally built websites, that are already set up with code built in and optimized for search engine traffic.

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.
