Behind the scenes this URL passes through Commission Junction and inserts my affiliate ID into eBay's system. That means that when a customer clicks on my link and registers, I receive the commission. This happens without the user even knowing. As far as the web surfer is concerned, he or she went straight to eBay Motors.
I was now an eBay Affiliate through Commission Junction and I had the URL with my Affiliate ID in it.
In about 5minutes I set up a Google AdWords Ad. (I'll show you how to setup these ads later in Step #6 on p. 65)

For Description Line 2: Buying or selling a car? It works.
In the Display URL field, I put: pages.ebay.com/ebaymotors (use the URL of the site the customer is directed to when he or she clicks on the link).
In the Destination URL field I put: http://www.qksrv.net/click-1234548-5463217?loc=http%3A//pages.ebay.com/ebaymotors/
Again, this is the link that Commission Junction provided me for eBay. Remember, this link takes the customer "directly" to the eBay website (http://pages.ebay.com/ebaymotors and provides CJ with my unique Affiliate ID. This ensures that I receive the commission.
Because there were no other Google ads, I bid the least amount which is 5 cents per click. As the only ad, I was placed in the number one Ad position for only 5 cents per click. In the beginning, I set my daily budget limit at $5 This allowed me to test the results for a couple of days without risking more than $10. If it turned out to be profitable, I would increase the daily budget limit to get as much traffic as possible.
