We want to thank the many affiliates that have contributed so many helpful questions, tips, and productive discussions on our boards over the past few months. We also felt that this is the right time to address a topic that a number of our affiliates requested, which is the high volume of off-topic and non-constructive posts on the eBay Partner Network board. We've received this feedback both from many of the affiliates who still use or read the boards, as well as many of our most...

Hello All, Starting October 1st, we will require that users have an active eBay Partner Network account in order to make posts to the eBay Partner Network discussion boards. We’re making this change as a result of feedback from a number of publishers. In people’s experience with other networks, limiting the boards to publishers in the network has been helpful in encouraging constructive and helpful conversations on the boards. In addition, if specific issues or bugs are reported by...

I don't know what has happened, i'm getting the same amount of traffic, the same amount clicks, the same as before the change over, I was getting winning bids, not a whole lot, now I am not getting any thing, not even 1 sale this whole month. I don't if someone has high jacked my sales or what. I've had 6 bid/bin in one day, but it didn't show any winning bids. I had a virus on my computer, it was some kind of security tool virus. I purchase the PC Doctor and removed it. That was the...

Hi all. I've been experiencing the same lows in clicks that most of you are talking about in the post regarding that. I'm also showing record low traffic levels as well, according to google analytics. I've spent about the last 2 hours examining and have determined that my traffic metrics are about the same, just reduced. That is, the relationship between traffic sources is about the same (i.e., 85% search engines, 11% direct, etc). Furthermore, my rankings are the same as usual, and...

Anyone who remembers reading many of my posts in the last few months probably knows that I haven't been too fond of QCP. I actually stopped running Ebay ads altogether I was so fed up with it. But about a month ago I decided to give it another chance. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw. And in the last month or so things have gotten progressively better, to the point that I'd even go as far as to say that I like QCP now. I do have to say that I understand Ebay's...

I see a substantial increase in traffic to all of my sites today (using Google Analytics and Piwik), however there's is only half the clicks I usually see around this time of day. Is there's something wrong with the reports today or it's just delayed more than usual?

Hi there! I created an eBay ad unit, but when I post it on my site, the edges are cut off. I adjusted the size, thinking that the unit it was wider than the space on the page, but this is not the case. The edges are still cut off, whether you have the width at 200 or 2000. You can see a screenshot a href="http://Linkhere. Any ideas on how to fix this? I'd be really grateful! -Mia C.

Several affiliates on another forum were sent letters from the CA tax authority saying they worked for a company in CA that filed a 1099 on them so they owe tax even though none of the affiliates live in CA. They were working for an affiliate network located in CA. It looks like they are trying to pass a bill in CA that all out of state independant contractors will have 7% of their earnings held for taxes. Link This is in addition to paying your taxes in the state you live in. Many...

Does anyone know how this works exactly? According to some posts it will work fine with QCP, but how do you know the amounts? I sent an email to support over a week ago, still no reply. I'm getting sales but have no idea where the earnings are going since there's no clicks associated with PlaceOffer transactions. The campaign linked to my PlaceOffer calls has 0'z all across. Yes, my business model has been approved by EPN Thanks

I'm finally getting around to something that's been on my to-do list for a while: custom coding geolocating scripts so I can geotarget ePN promotional content to the ePN program best suited to my visitors, based on their IP. I know others here have done this; I'm finally getting around to it myself. After some research I've decided to use the free API at IPInfoDB.com (thanks to alssoftware for the idea). My testing with them is preliminary, but it seems to be a pretty solid service with...
