MATRIXSYNTH: Ebay Ads

Ebay Ads

You might notice the addition of Ebay ads to the right. I finally got around to checking out their affiliate program. Feel free to check them out because obviously if you do and actually buy something I get a cut. : ) Same with any other ads on the site. The funny thing is advertising aside, I'm actually looking forward to seeing what comes up in the ads. I might find some good synth shots for posts, and who knows you might find something you are looking for. I currently have it set to search for Synth minus CDs. I'll have to tweak it over time to filter out the garbage. I'm also going to see if they have anything else worth putting up, but believe me I will only put useful stuff up, not pop-ups or giant banners, I promise. Anyway hope you all don't mind. I really am looking forward to seeing what sorts of stuff comes up. Also, the right bar of the site is meant for advertising, archives, the search box, archives and some recommended reading. The body of the page and the header will stay the same so the same amount of content will always be on top. And of course if any advertisers out there want to advertise on the site, shoot me an email. Highest bidder gets the highest spot on the right, currently that would be no one. : ) Feel free to comment.

  1. i dont mind the ads, they are clearly advertisements and on topic. Nothing confusing, besides who cannot use some extra money? (to buy more synths that is)

  3. I don't mind the ads at all-but I have NEVER been able to click on affiliate ebay links, they always bring up a 404 qksrv page, I don't know if this applies to anyone else... which is a huge pain, with musicthing and all, because the links in the stories are affiliate links too, so I can never see the auctions!

  4. The real way to make money from this is encouraging people to actually register for eBay for the first time - I think I get somethign like £10 every time someone does it from MT - although it only happens a couple of times a month.

    Re: the qksrv problems - I always put the item number on the page, so if the links don't work, you can find it that way...

  5. Cool, thanks for the comments. Odd about not being able to click through the links. I'll have to try it on some other PCs. BTW, if I put something up you can't get to, just post a comment and I'll address it.

To reduce spam, comments for posts older than one week are not displayed until approved, usually same day. Do not insult people. For items for sale, do not ask if it is still available. Check the auction link and search for the item. Auctions are from various sellers and expire over time. Posts remain for the pics and historical purposes. This site is meant to be a daily snapshot of some of what was out there in the world of synths.
