Make Profit with AuctionAds

ShoeMoneyMedia Group Inc. and MediaWhiz Holdings recently launched AuctionAds, a new smart way for affiliates to monetize traffic by using the eBay affiliate program. They are displayed in an advertisement-like format in a specified location of your website, appear as banners and are available in various formats whose dimensions are similar to those of AdSense and YPN ads. Below is a working example of a 468×60 px AuctionAds banner.

The account functions are very easy to use, showing reports and generating new ad code is done within seconds. There are reports for campaigns and for various time periods on impressions clicks and earnings. With the ad code generation tool you can choose from the most common standard banner sizes to get an ad for every place on your website, blog or forum. Choose what the colour scheme you need and most important you can choose the keywords for the auctions you want to publish.

There are also advanced keyword and price options like: Select only auctions from advertisers you want, Show only auctions where the price is equal to minimum and / or maximum, and rotate ads for different keywords.

Highlights:

• Payment is very fast, at the first day after the previous month (if you reach $50 minimum amount) via Paypal.
  
• Ads for almost every keyword and category (enter your own keyword base on the nature of your website)
  
• The automatic generation of easy to use JavaScript code
• They provide referral link code, built right into the displayed ads! If a user clicks on the "Ads by AuctionAds" that is displayed and signs up for our service you earn a bonus 5% of all revenue generated by that user for the 6 months (30 day cookie on all referrals).
• You can use the same AuctionAds account on as many sites as you want. You can use the flexibility of the campaign feature to keep track of statistics for different sites, or different areas of different sites.

While appearing like various other advertising and affiliate banners, AuctionAds are fairly unique. Typically, ads that intended to drive sales have a set price, which is displayed in the ad. AuctionAds, on the other hand, displays the current bid since it is essentially one giant affiliate for eBay, the well known auction site. As such, the prices displayed are much more often going to be relatively low, encouraging a higher CTR than comparable affiliate systems.

Publishers utilizing AuctionAds on their site will receive 100% of the commission revenue earned from eBay. The commission is paid on a scale, which is changing for the better as of June 1, 2007. Below is a screen shot of the new commission scale.

You may be skeptical about the validity of the program considering and wondering how AuctionAds makes a profit if they are giving away 100% of what you earn according to eBay’s commission scale. The idea is rather ingenious in its simplicity.

If, for example, AuctionAds has 50 members generating $20 in revenue, then each member is receiving a 40% share, or $8 each. This means that for these 50 members, AuctionAds is paying $400.

However, AuctionAds is receiving more than $400 from eBay. Since they are one big affiliate, this means they generated $1,000 in revenue (50 members * $20/member) for eBay. This puts them higher on the payout scale, meaning they receive 52.5%, or $525, of the revenue earned. After paying $400 to their members, AuctionAds still pockets $125 for doing nothing more than accepting members into their program.

$125 is not much for one month, but this example only included 20 people. Imagine even 200 websites generating this revenue for eBay, and AuctionAds makes $1250/month. If 2000 websites do the same, that’s $12,500/month that AuctionAds earns.
