Linking via feedback?
 

HI,

Is it possible for eBay to link you by using your website on your feedback on different accounts?

I want to try to get my website higher on google ranking so was thinking of putting it on peoples feedback on ebay. Something like: "Thanks from www.mywebsite.co.uk"

Should i only add this to one account or will i be ok over my 4 accounts?

thanks for the replies!!

Why take the risk?:pop2:

Highly unlikely. Although I will say that one of my accounts got a huge feedback removal and suspension for 30 days after I received too many A+++++ type of comments - did not help that I was selling eb ooks way back in the day on that account. Never again!

I personally think this is very bad idea, especially if the Eba account is ever closed. it has the possibility to affect some your site sales at a later date.

in the same way your are going to try and use it to bring custom to your site now.

Of course it can be tracked if you put a website to you in feedback comments. Ebay does anything to take you down! Don't take the risk if the answer is to easy to comprehend.

i think you are all right, thanks alot. Like I say i am going to direct traffic to my website but maybe it is not the way to do it incase it goes down later.

cheers for all the replies.

I send a business card with every item i sell on ebay directing buyers to my website. I also put my website in the feedback but not the whole http: just the BLAHBLAH.com part. I also do the same thing in my location "BLAHBLAH.com" It has brought me alot of traffic. Is it against ebay rules?....probably..but ive been doing it for around 5 months and have not had a problem. Just my experience , you have to figure out what works for you.
