Site with 1000 uniques a day, making nothing?ebay?

Hey i have a site getting 1000 uniques a day. It has 250 permanent subscribers. Yet it is making nothing with ebay. It is a boxing site.

I am trying to sell signed boxing gloves, tickets, and other boxing products. Doesn't seem to sell.

Does anyone know some products that may even be un related but they will definetely sell?

Cheers

 

everyone likes ipods, ipohones, xbox 360s, and ps3s. At least in my experience. What are you using to send people to ebay?

 

Are you seeing clicks?

 

Keep attractive ads in your site,find nice products

Close to 1000 uniques a day.

A large subsriber base.

But making nothing.

 

boxing lessons.... ebooks about boxing or martial arts... anything that has to do with weightloss/muscular development can somehow be related also to boxing... boxers want to be in tip-top shape right?

 

i would give zintext a try, all you do is place some javascript on your site and it links relevant keywords to searches on ebay.

 

Do u think i could sell this on my boxing site? even though its not related?

 

Looks like your links are bad. eBay EKs are wrong. Hovering over them, I see the following:

EK on the right:

campid=calzaghe%25252525252525252Bhopkins

Code (markup):

EK at the top:

campid=signed%2Bglove

Code (markup):

Those are incorrect campids. Needs to be a 10 digit value. I just posted a thread here about using Live HTTP headers to inspect links here.

Hope this helps

Obviously you want to have your product ads as closely related as possible to your content, but if thats nto working I would try some general interest stuff yeah.

 

So does that mean im not getting paid for it?

Also, how can i fix this simply.

Im new to ebay and everything seems so complicated.

Cheers

 

Correct.. that means you're not tracking.. so no $$ or impressions.

To fix this...
1. log in to EPN
2. click 'Campaigns'
3. Either create a new campaign (I would recommend that) or use the 'default campaign'
4. Copy the Campaign ID.. it will be a 10 digit number
5. Open the page with the EditorKit and change the value for track to the Campaign ID we just copied, and add sid with the old campid. sid is for tracking a certain tool.

So it should look something like this

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://lapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&ai=wlkdhz%7Dl%7Bdfglp&bdrcolor=669933&cid=0&eksize=4&encode=UTF-8&endcolor=FF0000&endtime=y&fbgcolor=EFEFEF&fntcolor=669933&fs=0&hdrcolor=669933&hdrimage=8&hdrsrch=n&img=y&lnkcolor=669933&logo=10&num=25&numbid=y&paypal=n&popup=n&prvd=9&query=Autographed+Signed+Gloves&r0=4&shipcost=n&sid=signed+gloves&siteid=0&sort=MetaEndSort&sortby=endtime&sortdir=asc&srchdesc=n&tbgcolor=FFFFFF&tlecolor=669933&tlefs=0&tlfcolor=FFFFFF&toolid=10004&track=0000000000sid=signed%2Bgloves&width=570"></script>

Code (markup):

Change the 0000000000 to your real campid

Hope this helps.

The editor kit site, always never opens for me. Anyone else have this same prob.

Anyways thanks so much Hanji i think i fixed it.

Can you check now to see if its correct?

I changed the campaign ids and those things.

?

Thanks mate

Also whats the delay like, on checking clicks and items purchased. Sorry everyone im new to ebay, ihave been with CJ for a year.

 

Yep.. that looks good. It takes approximately 3 hours for stats to update.

Thanks a lot mate. I would have had no idea and probably would have gone on earning nothing from it.

 

Glad I could help! Nothing worse than seeing $0. Good luck with your earnings, keep us posted.
