Now do not get me wrong, traffic is the most essential element of any online business because without traffic you cannot make any sales. However, conversion rates are also vital because a good conversion rate means you can make more money on less traffic!

So you have 100 visitors a day to your website, but you are only making a sale a day, or worse. What do you do?

The easiest way to improve your conversion rates is to advertise your product on eBay classified ads. This will automatically increase affiliate marketing conversion rates because eBay get of ton of traffic from people who actually are looking to buy something.

The power of eBay is that it is a buyers marketing. In other words, eBay can often improve conversion rates from less than 1% to over 5%. This will increase the amount of sales you make and put more money in your pocket.

To advertise clickbank or any digital products on eBay such as ebooks you must use the classified ad format. The reason for this is that eBay has banned the sale of digital items on normal auctions, but welcomes digital products via classified ads.

So my advice to you is to set up 5 ads on eBay for popular affiliate products that do not have too much competition. Over 30 days, you will get about 500 to 1,000 views to these auctions total. From this amount of traffic you can expect to make at lest 15 sales and possibly even 40 or 50. Go ahead and give eBay classified ads a shot, it will no doubt increase your affiliate marketing conversion rates.

I have used eBay classifieds with limited success. However, as with everything it does take time to learn and the only crime is to give up if you have not given it your best shot.
