ShoeMoney eBay AuctionAds Launch

I love it because they ads blend in the same as with only google premium publisher. Looks like made for my site. I didn't have many clicks yet due to the fact that i don't have too much traffic, but realize that the impressions and clicks rise by the day as if it was an avalange effect.

Have to wait it through

 

I have one guestion - How you earn money in AuctionAds program? From clicks?

 

Not sure if this is the right place to make a feature request... but here goes anyways. It'd be nice if you could set the default report view. As it is now, I have to change the time period and campaigns each time.

 

i had put a wide sky scrapper on a gaming site and this is 3 days stat

Earnings: $0.00
mpressions:45257
Clicks: 91

Even if i have adsense on that location i get low ctr coz of the ad location. Any ways i hope some of these 91 clicks convert in to $$ few days.

 

I agree. This would be good.

just wonder after implement auctions ads, does your adsense ctr drops?

p/s: happen to me everytime i add new Ads types ...

 

It would be useful if you could change the campaign name after it has been created.

 

Me too. But I'm willing to try it because I'm getting such low CPC with Adsense and would love to replace it with something that pays better.

 

Anyone have keyword suggestions for a myspace / videoclip / game type site?

 

Of course it will, to some extent. There are only so many visitors that will click an ad of any kind - the trick is to maximise the revenue from them. So if 10 people would click Adsense, but with AuctionAds you get 5 Adsense clicks and 10 AuctionAd clicks (because of the pictures, and interest), you may well make more money.

It's a matter of testing and waiting.

 

With that type of audience, I'd try:

"ipod, xbox, xbox games"

 

So I am on the right track. I have been running ipod. gonna try xbox, ps3, I also am gonna try purses and brands like fendi.

 

you can also do xbox;ps3;ipod

all at the same time.

 

I'm not using AuctionAds, but it is
important to tightly target with eBay.
There are just too many auctions.

Does AA support the full eBay
advanced search syntax? It should.

For example, a search for "ipod"
returns mostly cases, skins,
headphones, chargers, cables, etc.
I prefer bigger ticket items as the
eBay price vs. retail is greater and
the commission is higer. I don't want
to waste a single of my three spots
on a pink silicon ipod cover.

We're closer with this:
"ipod -(case*,skin*,cover*,remote*,
batt*,cabl *,cradle*,head*,charge*,
access*)

I treat this like AdWords. You need
qualified traffic. Don't use broad
matches when searching a zillion
auctions. If your content is not
focused enough to suggest specific
products or, at least, types of
products, you won't be able to
ensure your customers see them.

Good luck,

I agree that this would be great.

 

I just signed up, but it looks to me like it might be a great program if it's for the right niche. Might take some experimenting for sure.

 

It would be great to see advanced leads, leads, and auction commissions so I can compare to the campaigns I was running through CJ.

 

I've tried that and it doesn't seem to work. It's like it is ANDing instead of ORing those terms. So I end up with 0 auctions when each of the individual terms has a number of auctions.

 

When I used commas it would only run the first item. I did not try semicolons.

I wound up creating three separate ads and rotating them. they all did equally poor.

not the ads fault. Just don't think it was a fit with my site OR bad keyword selection.

My site isn't a big money maker, that's not it's intent. But Adsense for the same period in that spot was averaging $25 per week.

I'm going to give it some more time...
