Question about eBay affliate

[tbay2005]

To be an affiliate of eBay you have to go through cj, right?

Also, is there a way to link directly to a certain auction or niche product on eBay?

I think cj is the only way to do it directly, yes.

You can also have squidoo modules, but then you will be sharing the commission with squidoo. I do know that with the squidoo modules, it is easy to link to specific auctions (I've done it for my own auctions before, then change it to products in the niche when my auction is over).

You might want to look into Build A Niche Store if it is in your budget. I've seen some sites put together with BANS that were great. I haven't used it, so I can't give you a detailed review.

Newbie here. What does BANS stand for? And how would I go about builing a niche store?

[Larwee]

tbay2005, BANS stands for Build A Niche Store. It is software that lets you build niche eBay affiliate stores.

yes you can link directly to the ebay product One thing that many people are doing is find "wanted" ads under "sales" on craigslist.com and then going to ebay to find the product and emailing the person the link, stating that they found what they are looking for
