Free eBay Wordpress Plugin – Like BANS for Blogs
Theres a new and FREE eBay Wordpress Plugin called Affomatic, that can help you embed eBay listings right into your Wordpress posts. It was developed by Mark Wielgus, who you may know from the 45n5 Blog. His new blog is DigitialProductReporter.
I’ve heard that some Bans sites have lost ranking and some of the ones I’ve seen really are “thin” affiliate sites. But if you are writing blog posts and wrapping some unique, related content around the listings I think it could help.
Plus BANS runs $97 and this tool is free. Here’s an example of a site created with the plugin. BonsaiTraining.com
What can you do with the Affomatic Ebay Plugin?
- Create ebay listings in your posts based on the keyword you choose.
- Input your own affiliate id so you keep 100% of the profit.
- Choose the country to show ebay listings from.
- Choose category to narrow down your results or choose “all” categories.
- Limit the ebay results shown or show as many as possible.
- Change the ebay results order. (I prefer Price: highest first)

Wow – what a great find. I’ve been thinking about purchasing the BANS product, but never pulled the trigger. Now with this I don’t have to!
