A newbe needs some help. I purchased a site from Flippa that was setup for ebaycommerce affiliate program. Ebaycommerce denied me because the site they said is a mirrored site. So I put in a request through them using my other site which is unique. It's been nearly two weeks and multiple requests they won't respond. So I'm tired of dealing with them but I love the site that I have buy without ebaycommerce its dead and I'm losing all the traffic that it once had.

So my question is, since this is a full blown store and does price comparison. How hard would it be for me to use eBay partner api's to get it going or CJ Affiliate, or Rakuen? Hope this is not against the rules but my site is http://www.priceize.com so I'm hoping someone can go take a look and help this newbe on how I can get this site going. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Have you asked the Flippa seller how did he get ebay's approval? Maybe it could help.

    Solution # 1
    Launch your blog on the home page and bring in traffic. Next get ebay's approval for
    displaying their ads in the blog sidebar. Next, launch your shop in the sub domain.
    Link your product comaprison shop via the blog menu and banner ads in the blog sidebars.
    Put a product comparison widget/slide/banner at the end of each blog article.

    OR

    Solution # 2
    Post your project at upwork.com and get some estimate to see how much would it cost to modify your website script for either:

    A] Integrating ebay API system (you asked for it)

    OR

    B] Another option is to modify your website script, so that you will not be comparing ebay products with the products from other vendors. It is better that we compare products only from the highest commission paying 3 vendors. Don't involve too many vendors or the website visitors will leave your website without reaching any buying decision.

    The person I won the auction from said just to use another site that's not mirrored to get approval and use those keys for that site. I've been told this by other warrior members as well. However I can't get eBay Commerce to respond to my request for the other site I own to get approval for it.

    It's strange because eBay partner approved me with no issues and I can get those developer keys but I don't think that will work. I also have a Rakuten Linkshare account so I'm just trying to see how much work it would take to change it from eBay Commerce to anyone of those other ones I mentioned.

      Do what the other poster suggested by launching a blog on the main site, put this site on the sub-domain? Or re-apply with another site/email.

      What did you end up doing?
