Ebay Affiliate Question: Are you allowed to place your affiliate link on articles?

    I am wondering if it is allowed to place ebay affiliate links on articles like for example on ezinearticles. I have about 80 articles that arent utilizing the resource box and i was thinking if i could just put my ebay affiliate link in there since ebay has all kinds of products as that would make the monetization of articles very easy for me instead of trying to find products related to every single article.

    So is it allowed to link to your affiliate link through article sites?

    no reason why not although i would question how many links will be clicked on. probably better to use BANS than do that one at a time

    have you ever clicked on a link in an article?

    i dont think i ever have. i have only ever used articles for gaining backlinks.

    I don't think that's allowed. You're only able to send traffic to affilaited via the websites you have registered with commission junction. ezinearticles wouldn't appear as a registered site with them and therefore, i believe it would show as "invalid clicks." Alternatively, it may not be viewed as a valid promotion method and commissions could be reversed. However, you can write a blog and use your blog articles to promote commission junction advertisers. Hope that helps and if there's anyone that can clarify or correct what i've written, please post! Best of luck to you!
