Question about a New Paypal Account and Low Sales
 

Hi everyone,

I have been using stealth accounts for quite a while now (a few years).

Just recently, one of my paypal accounts got limited, so I went and purchased another paypal account (though I created the last 3 or so of my own).

At any rate, I plugged this new paypal into the very same website (which I have also done a couple times already).

However, this time, it seems the sales are about 1/4 as much as before.

I am wondering if Paypal limits the amount of transactions on accounts that are not a year old yet?

This one, is a little over 100 days old.

At any rate, I have checked everything under the sun to try to figure out why the sales are 1/4 the usual volume.

I checked analytics (traffic is even higher than before), I checked my datafeed (about the same amount of listings and checked to see if they are displaying).

I checked the restrictions on buyers (all good).

Checked my paypal buttons. All good.

I can not for the life of me figure out why the sales are 1/4 what they were before.

So, now, I am starting to wonder.... Does paypal limit sales on accounts that are not a year old?

The last one I had was over a year old and the one before that was like 12 years old.

Actually, I think I figured it out..

I don't think paypal was blocking the orders.

I think it was a combination of BING having lower traffic along with some affiliate links that I had readded back that I did not realize.
