check out the CPA subforum. It took me a few days before I got accepted at one.
Finally, Friggin' eBay Is Useful... 1K-3K From Glitch
- Thread starter ..Q..
- Start date
Ok I set 2 up a few hours ago.
It took me forever to do all my DMR's for all the banners and text clicks and upload it all to my host.
I am promoting the health/beauty niche with 2 different offers for now.
1 pays 35 cpa and the other pays 30 cpa for the free trial, buyer pays like $5 for shipping or whatever.
I did everything just the way u said Q so I am curious to see how it goes.
If it goes well I will post many more.
I will check the listings in 12 hours to see if im on top there.
Should I just search my keywords in low to high instead of best match to find the listings?
Thanks again for an easy method Q!

No matter what the product is, I just
use the "everything else" category and
mostly in the "incentives.." subcategory
for trial stuff.
You are going to pull traffic via keywords.
This is a good question that I missed
explaining in my original post.. Thanks!
Classified in eBay is differently treated
than normal auction.
Even though your classified is the cheapest,
it usually won't appear at the top of "low to
high" option.
The priorities is reserved for other type of
auction.
Unless, of course, you have "pickup: free"
glitch.
See it in "low to high" to see that the glitch is working
for you.
If you are lucky, your classified might even appear
on first page of "best match"... classified ranking
in best match in random.

Used to make a lot of cash by listing out-links in ebay for a lottery affiliate but then they started getting removed after a couple of hours! thanks for letting me know they are slack on out-links in classified ads!Think I can start making a killing again

Great post! I forgot about the classified section, I used to use it for my own product to build my list and also promoting CB products. The CPA twist never dawned on me. 
I think I'm gonna give it a shot but just use an obvious direct link straight to merchant (while adding my C*S code of course). This may help conversions as the web saavy won't feel the need to try to bypass my aff link.
Thanks ..Q.. !

The keywords that you choose to put in your title will be the main traffic source. When people are searching on eGay, the majority will do it by keyword. Don't waste them, think of what a buyer would type in while looking for your product.
It worked for me im at the top of low to high just like Q said
I am on the 3rd page of best match
The auctions have been on for around 15 hours and they each have around 15 views
I am wondering if it is worth it to pay the $25 for featured gallery cause then u are at the top of best match I think.
No sales yet, but the listings are there for a month
If I can pull like 3 sales then this will be worth it for sure

You can use the glitch method to test your
market first.
If it is good money then you might want to
upgrade your listing to be featured and
permanently be on top of any "sort by"
option.
If you are listing 10 Classified, maybe 2 or 3
can be featured and the rest will ride the
traffic via Auctiva cross-promotion scrolling
gallery.

thank alot for the information.
My ads have been up for around 5 days
1 of them has decent traffic and a few watchers and the other does not
The method DID work for both listings though
My copy kind of sucks I think though and maybe that why no sales yet?
I did a very short ad copy with read more links and click here to buy links and also banners
No sales yet, but I think if u find the right keywords and product with good copy you should be able to make money
Any more suggestions Q?

If it is drawing decent traffic, then just be patient...
You are not looking at sales every day or every other day... it gonna average about 1.5 sales per fortnight (at worst) or 1-2 sales per week (at best)...
This will work out to about $75-$200 per classified ads, per month..
Then you take some good niches and scale it into 10 to 20 different classified ads to achieve upwards of 1K income.
Cheers!

It is really hard to say when it comes to traffic in eBay.
I have some offers that only have 1-2 traffic per day but
are more profitable than those that have more than
10 per day.
You have to keep in mind that most visitors from eBay
are in the buyers' mindset and a lot of them going to
buy something from somewhere.
I am a firm believer in testing... as human can never
be right 90% of the time... so to beat it, we need to
test and improve...
Even the worst of my classified ads will BREAK EVEN
by doing the glitch method... so, don't worry.
Competition is quite irrelevant with the glitch method.
So the more pages a certain keywords hold the higher
the demand for that keyword and thus you can test it
there and shoot straight to the top in "low to high".
Again, I would like to remind that one of the drawback
of this glitch is that you cannot edit it once you have
uploaded the listing... or else the glitch is gone.
