Hello All, I have a question that I have been trying to get answered. I am not sure how many of you are aware of Google Gadgets and/or how they work. I am eager to use google gadgets to help my affiliate marketing. I want to make a gadget that allows users of Google's iGoogle Homepage to add Ebay search to thier homepage. I can do it either by having the search script right in the gadget itelf like this guy http://www.google.com/ig/directory?synd=open&source=gghp&num=24&url=http://official-info.com/ebay.xml&output=html or instead of <content type "html"> I can make it content type "url" and make a webpage that has the search box on it and use the gadget as an iFrame to see onto my site by putting this code into a google gadget like the below gadget <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <Module> <ModulePrefs title="Ebay Search" height="55" scrolling="false" /> <Content type="url" href="http://www.couponcodecentral.com/myebayscript.html" /> </Module> and this link http://www.couponcodecentral.com/myebayscript.html isthe location of the search script which is where the searches would be taking place. Now I read in the CJ terms of use... 2.2 Use of Links to Advertisers You shall not cause any Transactions to be made that are not in good faith, including, but not limited to, using any device, program, robot, Iframes, hidden frames, redirects or clicking on Links that You place to the Advertiser. I found a very old post here that mentions the policy on iFrames and good faith http://forum.abestweb.com/archive/index.php/t-3450.html Apparenlty Todd Crawford doesn't work for CJ anymore. However, the policy is still the same in regards to its wording. I see this forum gets more activity and I am eager to get this going but do not want to run into a pitfall. also I want to point out this.... I have been told that (thanks Bobby ;-)).... Ebays Terms and Conditions say "a. Agents. You must identify each Sub-Publisher with a unique tracking ID (PID). eBay reserves the right to terminate any affiliate engaging in "Sub-Publisher" or "distribution partner" agent relationships at any time, at eBay's discretion, based on a breach of these terms and condition by Your Agent" This is why I pointed out the difference in how you make the gadget. If you make it with the code inside then would you fall under this rule ? Would I need to get Sub-Publishers and if so how the heck do you do that ? If I have the search box on my site and use the <content="url"> method then technically the search is always happening on my site correct ? Therefore I wouldn't fall under the above mentioned eBay rule ? Whether you do or you don't think its legit please site a source of your info. TIA
