Jeremy "Shoemoney" Schoemaker and the folks from Text Link Ads have teamed to create AuctionAds, a new automated monetization service for site owners. AuctionAds serves up a feed featuring eBay auctions, with members receiving a cut if the affiliate revenue from eBay. This service looks like itwill work best for site owners who are are looking for a turnkey solution to get revenue from their sites and are willing to give up a share of the potential affiliate revenue in exchange for a plug-n-play service. Shoemoney provides an overview:
A publisher can be up and running with AuctionAds within 5 minutes which means they are making money in 5 minutes. Each time a user clicks on AuctionAds and then completes an action on eBay, the publisher makes money. The publisher makes money even when the user just signs up for a new account on eBay. They also make money when a user places a winning bid. Publishers can also make money with the AuctionAds Affiliate program. Within every ad displayed, a publishers affiliate code is automatically included where it says “Ads By AuctionAds”. The publisher receives 2% of any affiliate refered to AuctionAds.AuctionAds is reviewed at AdMoolah, John Chow and ProBlogger (Darren Rowse).
