Auction Ads
There seems to be something about eBay, auctions and online advertising nowadays. First, I wrote about BidVertiser offering eBay Ads. Then, today, I received an email from TextLinkAds* alerting me to this ad programme called AuctionAds*.
What is it? Well, it’s basically an ad programme that lets you run ads of eBay auction listings. You can put in keywords to run the types of auction ads that you want. You put in the code on your blog or site. And, you can earn money from these auction ad links if a user clicks on a link and take action on eBay.
Auction Ads even recently introduced the URL converter where you can turn any eBay link to an affiliate link. So, if you’re talking about anything on eBay (a search term, a funny or weird auction, something you wish to buy, etc.), you can turn them in to affiliate links. I tried to use this by making an example converted link in my blog post about Stella McCartney.
You can run Auction Ads with contextual ads like Google AdSense. And, they have several familiar ad formats.
The payment threshold is US$10 and it’s payable via PayPal every first of the month.
And yes, they have an affiliate programme too. Here’s their spiel on this -
There is no need to sign up for our affiliate program because our affiliate program is built right into the ads you display! If a user clicks on the “Ads by AuctionAds” that is displayed and signs up for our service you earn a bonus 2% of all revenue generated by that user for the 6 months.
You will get paid the first of every month via Paypal. We feature a 30 day cookie on all referrals.
Read more at Auction Ads’ FAQ.
Let me know if you give it a whirl and tell me what you think about it. I already signed up and tried the ads at my ‘test site’, Chrysalis Creativity. I’ll report back as soon as I have anything more to share.
