eBay Partner Network Rejected You

So eBay Partner Network rejected you. They are pretty fussy!

Have you got a niche website and tried to sign up with eBay Partner Network but been rejected?

Don’t despair – the trick is to get accepted for one site and after that it’s plain sailing. Each account is approved or disapproved by a real live person and since niche sites are fairly equivalent, a lot of it is based on the options you choose when applying.

If you haven’t even applied to eBay Partner Network yet you can start here

1. Go to www.ebaypartnernetwork.com to sign up. Read the Term and Conditions and check all the applicable boxes. Even if you don’t plan on using Half.com check that box, eBay will love better for doing that.
2. Click “Continue”
3. Accurately fill in all the information on the form. Be careful, eBay will use this information to send your payments.
4. In the section asking for your primary business model, select “Natural Search/Website.”
5. Your business description is “Blogging.”
6. In Website URL, enter your website or blog URL, make sure it is setup and active.

Check that all the information is correct then submit and wait for approval. This takes up to 48 business hours. If you are approved, you will get an e mail and you can start using the great tools ePN provides, link generator, creatives generator, and great widgets that you can use on your website.

eBay Partner Network disapproved you? This is what you do:

1. Make a NEW Niche Site, don’t try to get the old one approved, time for that later.
2. Put it on it’s own domain, not a sub domain.   It shows you really are serious and committed this website.
3. Complete the site – eBay Partner Network don’t sign up sites ‘under development’
4. Add at LEAST 10 Blog posts. This is the case where more is better!They should be
1. Dated between 1 – 3 days apart
2. At least 300 words long.
3. Back dated to make your site look older!

Its BEST if you wrote these posts yourself but they can be articles you’ve found at sites like EzineArticles Article City,  GO Articles you can ‘spin’ these if you have an Article Spinner

You could even do some product reviews.  You can search for latest news that fits the niche and rewrite as a post.

Just make sure you have good content BEFORE you apply this time!

5. You need a new email address, on no account use the one you used last time and as you have a new domain set up the email on that.
6. If you already have put Adsense on the site remove your “Adsense Pub ID”. Once you hear back from ePN, you can reactivate it. The impression that ePN should get is that you are building a site to share quality information, not just make money.
7. Then re apply following the procedure above making sure you use your NEW email address and NEW domain. Once you get approved for your first site, it should be easier for the next ones.

If they still don’t want you relax! Remember that eBay Partner Network is just one option.  If you are having problems getting accepted by ePN, don’t worry. Give your niche site a little time to get established and grow and there are many more ways to monetize your site.
