Exactly. --- EPN was great when it was run by CJ. Back in the golden days, eBay was easily in my top 3 earners. Now it's just beer/play money. Move along. Nothing to see here.
I haven't replaced EPN with anything. I just let my existing sites tick along without doing any work on them. Maybe I was a bit harsh in my previous comment. EPN can still be an earner, just don't expect much $ from it, and don't invest too much time into it (like more than 1 day).
EPN has dropped off significantly since they did the "mobile" ranking. Ebay and Amazon are different target markets.. if you have a lot of clicks with few sales.. EPN might be good for you.. If you have few clicks but good sales.. Amazon might be better.. ( make sure you are using the "add to cart" function )
Agree 110% I have been removing all of my Ebay links slowly over the last few months as my earnings have dropped off the deep end.
