New Ebay terms....SUCK!

[HeyJay29]

I cloak and redirect my traffic to Landing Page Builder domains. Leaves the landing page as the referrer so everything looks legit. LPB has an optional double meta refresh to clear the referrer, but ebay doesn't seem to like that. I have been bringing in 25-30K a month doing that.

Well, I'd pay you 10 bucks for the detailed ebook on that one!
(as long as you don't add "rinse and repeat" to it.)

EPN has been shutting down accounts for blanking the referrer for a LOOOOOONG time now. This is OLD news! Only up until a month or two ago do you NOT get credit at all for blanking. Only differences now is, they don't ban you before getting paid......you simply just don't earn on blanks.

THE REAL predicament now is....how to get past their newly implemented "verification system" where they now need to verify your website with a validation script before you start earning.

Waiting to see a way around that one...........

Publishers may only place links and/or promotional content on sites they own. Affiliate links on third party sites such as Craigslist, MySpace, etc. are not allowed.

ooh is it, i have been sending above 200+ unique clicks daily from other sites, nothing has happend' to my account yet... i never checked whether my account is banned or not, but they did pay me last month

There is still plenty money to be made on ePN. I've been redirecting since day one and the only accounts that have been banned have always been part of the quarterly mass bannings.

You just simply need to launder your traffic correctly ; )

I forget; are you supposed to add fabric softener right when you start the washing machine or midway through?

 

[grafx77]

Well the BIG question is how to open up more future EPN accounts without a) purchasing an established website b) wasting all your time promoting a new website in hopes of getting accepted c) giving up entirely.

I've never had too much of a problem in having my accounts banned (other than quarterly massacres), but expanding outward with Easy EPN money is going to be quite the hassle if noone has a "BH solution".

 

[tedg3]

Agreeing completely
What is the update on getting around the verification anyone heard of a new bh way?rof01:

 

[romil2009]

it is better to apply white hat techniques to do long business with ebay.

Just cookie stuff the page and buy fake traffic to pump up impressions.

 

[maleguru]

Agreed - cs the hell out of it till it pays off

 

[DeadEyesOpened]

It's certainly a good percentage of mine.

Lucky I've been building a lot a niche sites lately, on my domains. I think this is going to be the way to go, keep mixing BH with WH.

 

[Goodfella]

I've got a site that does really really well on google, but I'm somewhat new to this whole CS thing. Can I CS the page with a few actual links to make it look legit using EPN? Or should I look elsewhere for CS because Im really wanting to monetize this #1 in google site with something other than $20 a month in adsense.

It's just too much of a hassle to do anything on ebay anymore. Use to sell quite a bit but became just too much of a headache with increasing fees and all. Was ok while it lasted
