    Although BANS build your site around eBay affiliate link, it never hurt to put up adsense!

    I would love for BANS to support other affiliate products, such as Clickbank or more of CJ, but at this point I don't think there are plans for this to happen.

    It's a pretty efficient tool for presenting eBay listings though, and I always believe in reinforcing your strengths. :)

    Generally BANS converts better than other datafeed website as people like to shop at eBay and love bargains!

    I bought BANS yesterday and it looked very easy until it came to editing the stylesheets and I got error messages. I looked in the user manual and lo and behold you have to look at the instructions in the forum. I went to the forum and then realised that I'd had to create so many usernames and passwords that I'd forgotten which one I'd used for the forum. I've now had to submit a support ticket as it's impossible to retrieve a password if you've forgotten your username. This is the most frustrating thing about BANS. Something as basic as editing templates should be included in the user manual.

    They should get back to you pretty soon.

    Just wondering what are you promoting? I'd suggest promote something that is hot selling, you can get some good ideas via eBay pulse.

    If you're having errors editing the style sheet (or any template file) double check that you uploaded the .htaccess file to the root of the web site. Also make sure your files aren't read only. I've had that specific issue before...

    I've been a CJ publisher for a while, and can't find a generic ebay.com entry in the advertiser list. What am I missing?

    I see:

    ProStores - an eBay Company

    eBay Stores

    Reseller Marketplace


    ...but none of these sound like what y'all are discussing. Am I missing something completely obvious?

    To implement BANS you now need to sign up with Ebay's in house affiliate program here...https://www.ebaypartnernetwork.com. CJ will no longer be handling Ebay's affiliate program after the end of May. Sign up with the EPN, create your campaign numbers and enter those into your BANS store setup pages.

    CJ does not reject you from merchant programs, it is the merchant that rejects you.

    be careful of the rebate thingy. it won't be long before Clickbank shuts down your affiliate account as they dont like this practise. it is clearly stated in their TOS.

    It's dangerous anyway since chargebacks can ruin your day.

    Hello to all. I just found out about BAN website builders. I am tempted to take the plunge but before doing so, I have a question which I would like to have answered. I am confused between:

    “Step 1: Choose Your Country

    Your country choice will determine which specific eBay marketplace products you will be marketing. (I guess the commission is based on which country --ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.ca and ebay.com.au)
    “

    and

    “The 12 eBay marketplaces that BANS currently supports (Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Spain, France, India, Italy, Netherlands, Singapore, United Kingdom, United States) hold a combined product inventory of over 60 million products”

    Basically I am from Canada, would like to setup with Ebay.com (for higher commision) with products listed in Ebay from different countries.

    I know something is wrong in that sentence but what?

    Thanks for your advice.

    Bibitte

    You can promote eBay offers from other countries even if you are not from there.

    Is it possible to use BANs for cj.com affiliates except ebay ? I need to create handbag store, and I'm using another advertiser, not ebay ! Can it be done ?

    No. BANS does not have that capability. It's limited, at present, to EPN.
