    I knew there is something wrong going on here. I have an ebay editor toolkit running on my website. It has been running several days now. I am being reported 0 impressions all the time.. however yesterday there was 1 click, but still 0 impressions. I contacted CJ and they just told they get batch data and stuff... how can this possibly be? 1 click with no impression..

    I think CJ relies on the 1x1 pixel image that most of their standard links include. If you use eBay links/code then you probably aren't getting the image, so the impressions can't be counted.

    ? .. on CJ they point you to affiliates.ebay.com to get the code for the toolkit. So what is this 1X1 image stuff? Isn't the ad supposed to pay over impressions? How can they offer a program based on impressions that they can't track?

    If you were using Keyword Links then its normal as they cant tracks the impressions for Keyword Links.

    so what is the point in publishing a toolkit that pays on impressions but whose impressions can't be tracked?

    As far as I know, eBay pays per sale, or per active sign up.
