Hi GUys, in my EPN admin panel i see this: Program Impressions Clicks EPC (GBP) Earnings (GBP) 0 13 0.00 0.00 i don't see the impressions going up! the users must view to click though lol have i set it up right do you think? cheers Graham
Just about to do that to it is weird! its a BANS site i have so its fairly easy to setup or so i thought! cheers Graham
I have the same thing - I think impressions relates to creatives ie banners that you put on the site as opposed to clicks from the items - my sites actually show lots of impressions but hardly any clicks!! I'll check this further. BTW which part of Bonnie Scotland are you in - im in the frozen wastes of Aberdeenshire!
Unless you're running eBay creatives (aka banners etc), you won't get impressions. BANS uses the rss/api feed (as far as I know), so it doesn't set off the eBay impression counter. I use the rss feed and the eBay API on my sites, which means I don't get impression counting. It's no big deal. I don't really think eBay know how to count anyway
Hi Guys, @drax ah thats a tiny bit further up from me hehe im from Larkhall near Glasgow ah so it doesn't work like google! as in the number of page visites equals impressions i see. thanks guys Graham
Thats because you are using a direct link... I think you will only see impressions if your using something other than a direct affiliate text link like a banner or something.
I have the same issue using ebay rss feeds, I think an rss feed request should be counted as an impression but would prefer them to sort their tracking before this
That's because if you look at the McJiffy code it forces impression counts using a transparent 1x1 pixel image from ebay that counts as an impression. I think an RSS request should be counted as an impression too but you can work around it like McJiffy has.
