How Will Ebay’s Affiliate Program Affect BANS Stores?

Yesterday eBay announced that it was leaving Commission Junction.  Most people around the net were discussing this move generally.  However, for me, I was concerned how this news would affect the Build A Niche Store software.

In my last post, I mentioned that I was just about to start a new online income stream using the Build a Niche Store software.  BANS is a great software script that allows you to quickly set up websites that promote ebay products.  The BANS software allow you to constantly pull in ebay auctions to your website so that you can get people to come to your site then purchase ebay products and you make an affiliate commission.

All weekend I was trying to buy BANS.   Unfortunately, the BANS site was offline all weekend due to a server attack.  I woke up on Monday already to buy the BANS software download and then I read about ebay leaving the Commission Junction affiliate network.  I don’t know how this is going to affect BANS.  I bet that the BANS software will be quickly updated to make it compatible with ebay new in-house affiliate program, but I am still concerned.  I sent an email to the Build a Niche Store Company yesterday, but so far I have not heard back.

Despite this ebay news, I think that I will still buy the BANS software on faith that it will work with the new ebay affiliate program.  But, I wanted you guys to no about this issues.

    The news of ebay dropping CJ was a shock to all of us. I know I was frustrated with some of the problems that CJ was having.

    Selling others eBay products from my website has made me some really good extra income.

    I used to use BANS but now have switched to MeS, “My eBay Script”. I did this because I didn’t want my sites to all look like a cookie cutter template.

    The move proved to be a bit worse than expected. However, I’m confident ebay is trying to resolve the issues many are facing.
