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...

Hi all, Totally new here, Glad to be approved, and ready to go to work. Quick question: How do I find my ePN ID for use in, say, third-party apps for site-builders, etc? I've combed the site and member area for hours now and can't figure it out. Is there a general account ID, such as a Commission Junction PID, an Amazon ID or AdSensi pup-number? Please help. Thank you Steve Winship

I started keeping track via php scripting and a SQL database the number of EPN clicks my main campaign has per day. I did so because I noticed a big discrepancy between the number of normal visitor to my site and the number of clicks to EPN listings. I set up the click monitoring on my site after I really ramped up the advertising expenses the last week to take advantage of Christmas shopping, but didnt see that much of an increase in EPN clicks. Once I set up the click monitoring I see a...

Got hit by two different bots on the same site on 12/1. Starting the month with a seven to ten day no earnings penalty on this campaign sucks! I recommend you block these. 68.249.107.65 Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6) 199.72.115.66 Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729) Has anyone had any luck using the IP...

I'm curious to know why the EPC drops like a stone at the beginning of every month. That cannot be right that you have to "start from the beginning" every time.

Everyone sees through your crap. Now stop dragging up year old threads with BS posts just to spam your signature link with your affiliate link site. You openly admit you get goose eggs with ePN but yet spam your "Step By Step Guide To Making Money With The eBay EPN Affiliate Program". You really look silly.

Hello. I run two different ePN campaigns. I pulled my transaction report for the last few days and it's reporting campaigns incorrectly. I went back, identified the post in question using the custom ID - double checked all the links on it for what campaign ID is specified - yet the transaction report is claiming the sale occurred as a result of a link from my second unrelated campaign...that is definitely not specified in the code in any of the links for that particular post.

Is anyone else seeing a lot of chargebacks in today's download? I have almost 50 of them, I don't think I've ever had more than 5 in one day. Checked a sample of the listings and don't see any connection between them, like a rogue malicious bidder. Hopefully it's a mistake.

While wandering around the eBay developer site a few days ago I came across an eBay-certified wordpress plugin that automatically does something I'd been doing manually before. I installed it through the wordpress plugin feature and got it set up quickly and easily. And today I discovered that someone clicking on it led to me getting a bit of revenue that showed up on today's downloaded report. So no complaint there. However, I checked my blog with the ePN tool validator and this API tool...
