Want to increase conversions for ACRUs? One of the best things you can do is speed up the loading of your site. Here are a few ideas:
1) Eliminate any unnecessary banners. You don’t need 2-3 (or more) ebay banners on a page or other advertising. Remember your niche.
2) If using scripts like BANS limit the number of product results to 10. Pages that take forever to load will turn away potential customers. Better to have multiple categories and shorter pages that load quicker than one very long page on the main page.
3) Always have a basic text link ad somewhere on the page. This will act as a backup for your other links if for some reason they are not working.
4) Keep the design clean and simple. Don’t go overboard on loading down pages with advertisements. Remember your niche and what you are marketing for and not try to be all things to all people. You will be amazed how much quicker conversions happen on fast loading pages.
5) Limit, or get rid of, Google adsense ads. Not only does it slow down your pages it will affect your conversions and ebay sales. If you are trying to make money on adsense then concentrate on that, but if you are serious about making money with the ebay affiliate program adsense is a “leak” and will turn your customers to others sites, possibly to a competitors site that is also an ebay affiliate.
The best performing we have seen are ones that keep in simple, don’t load the pages down with a bunch of graphics, advertisements, and adsense code. Time your pages and folks should still design pages to load on the slowest connections including dialup. If it loads fast on dialup then it will certainly load very quickly on high speed internet.

The ebay.com Affiliate Team wants to notify you that we are experiencing an ongoing
reporting delay of up to 48 hours, affecting both Transaction Reports and
Performance Reports. The effect of this delay may be seen in Transaction Reports in
the lag time between Posting Date and Event Data of daily transactions. In
Performance Reports, the delay may be seen in incomplete data for “Today” and
“Yesterday”.
A small subset of our publisher base may also be affected by a separate reporting
issue, which results in a delay in the calculation of the final value fee of a
number of Winning Bids/BINs. As a result, you may temporarily notice reduced
revenue commission amounts for successful transactions that posted within the first
few days of the month, and again at mid-month. Note that this issue DOES NOT affect
ACRU commissions or counts.
These issues are surfacing as a result of the surge in traffic tied to the holiday
shopping season. While reporting may be distorted during these specified time
periods, please rest assured that tracking and recording of transactions remains
fully functional, and publishers will be compensated correctly for all commissions
at month end. These reporting issues are expected to continue through the holiday
season and possibly into early 2008, but we are working diligently towards a fix.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you in the meantime.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the program.
Sincerely,
The ebay.com Affiliate Team

In addition to paypal and google checkout we are now accepting moneybookers.com for your ACRU orders. Our moneybookers account is dealworx@yahoo.com. We added this at the request of several customers.
We will be updating our payment options page soon, and also looking into adding several other types of payments including direct credit card payments directly to our site.

We have added another server to the mix to help redirect our extra traffic for ebay ACRUs. Customers should see faster conversion times and able to handle even more clients.
Thanks for helping make this service grow.
