Being relatively new to HubPages, I have a hard time gauging success, however I can say that my profits have increased dramatically since I started using the the eBay capsule.
I think the amount of success you get using the eBay capsule, as with any type of advertizing, is how relevant your content is to the ads being displayed. The thing I like both about the eBay and the Amazon capsules is that you have complete control over the advertizing making it possible to target exactly the audience you expect to get on your hubs.
When all is said and done I believe it boils down to your ability to offer something that your visitors will want to click on when they see it.
I've done fairly well using the eBAY affiliate. Sometimes the eBaY capsule is what drives the traffic to my hub in the first place.
I have had some success with the eBay capsules on my hubs. They tend to generate some change daily and I have had sales made via my hubs that have relevant ebay listings advertised on them. That being said - less is more and you don't want to overdo the listings on your hubs or people click away.

Authoring Hubs is about sharing and spreading ideas. Most of what we do is word-based, and a capsule to show off related Zazzle stuff would be an eye-catching way to allow readers interested in those ideas to buy products which celebrate them, such as relevant designs, graphics, statements,...

Studies have been done testing the direction people read and how the choose objects in stores, which is why aisles are set with different planograms with expensive items on one side and an oposite, lesser priced item on the other.Well, what I'm curious is if anyone has noticed something similar in...

I have an eBay affiliate ID through my personal websites, but have resisted placing it on hubpages due to all the conflicting issues with eBay.So, is it okay to use the eBay capsule on hubpages or should I wait until there is an affirmative, definite answer? I contacted eBay and all they say is...
