Optimize Your AuctionAds

If you are using AuctionAds on your site have you optimized them yet?  Are your AuctionAds showing a load of items for .99 cents?

The Code:
auctionads_ad_kw = “your keywords minprice:50”;
What I Use:
auctionads_ad_kw =  “Apple iPod MP3 minprice:50″;

If so the procedure to correct this is simple just use the minimum price attribute to eliminate low-price ads (example above) and then your ads will only show bids that are equal to or higher than the amount entered. If you want a higher or lower amount just changed the number to that amount. 

There are two other methods for AuctionAds optimization that I do not recommend due to inconsistency of them working internationally and I haven’t had personal success with them. Stop words (negative keywords) and ad rotating by use of multiple keywords.

Negative Keywords Code:
auctionads_ad_kw = “iPod -case -armband”;

Rotating Ads Code:
auctionads_ad_kw = “keyword1; keyword2; keyword3”;

After you have made any changes it will take few minutes for it to kick in because of the cache on the AuctionAds servers – just be patience.

    I’ve not signed up for AuctionAds yet. Could you tell me please what its advantages and disadvantages is?

    Advantage people love eBay — Disadvantage load time if you put the below each post.

    A solution is to put the code in the comment file like I’ve done.

    I use AuctionAds on a 8mm film site I have and I’ve been doing well. HOWEVER sometimes instead of showing relevant items (i.e. movies, film, projectors, etc) it shows Coach handbags or Xbox 360 games or something else totally unrelated to my keywords. Any ideas as to why or how to fix it?

  5. Jason Neuman on July 7th, 2007

    For multiple keywords this is the format:

    auctionads_ad_kw = “keyword1; keyword2; keyword3”;
