Comments on: ePN & Quality Click Pricing – Some Good Advice http://www.BenJohnsonBlog.com/676/epn-quality-click-pricing-some-good-advice/ Bought to You By Ben Johnson Tue, 07 Sep 2010 09:33:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Ben http://www.BenJohnsonBlog.com/676/epn-quality-click-pricing-some-good-advice/comment-page-1/#comment-1208 Ben Sat, 03 Oct 2009 19:41:02 +0000 http://www.BenJohnsonBlog.com/?p=676#comment-1208 @ Tom - It's annoying I know and as I have said above I don't agree with the move by any means, I just know that where/if we can make it work in our favour then we should. Personally I have seen an overall improvement in the QCP preview and over the first two days (although it's way way too early to make assumptions as to how it will work out). When you mention the 92.00, was this for sales of actual items which you were promoting on your site? Were they different items in the category related to your niche? That is where QCP is making the difference.

Why? Because they can and there is nothing you can do about it as an affiliate. Example, I earned 92.00 for sept. Quality Click Pricing predicts my payment would be 32.00 for the same traffic. What is wrong with that? The 92.00 is based on actual earnings for auctions won by people who come to ebay through my links. Quality Click Pricing is based on Voodoo Why is it ok for ebay to now claim that traffic that last month was worth 92.00 is worth only 32.00? There can be only one reason since the 92.00 figure was based on actual auctions closed, a verifiable metric. ebay now simply wants to be able to pay affiliates less for the same amount of auctions closed. ebay is trying to claim the traffic is not performing but the fact is the traffic is performing exactly the same but will be paid out at a much lower rate. A rate that is about 2/3 lower then before. I will be removing every ebay auction link I have and replacing them with affiliate links from a source who sells something from my site's niche or adsense. Anything is better then dealing with a company who just wants me to be happy being screwed. ebay, you suck! ### Quality Click Pricing is designed to do one thing only – allow ebay to pay affiliates less and make more for themselves.
