First of all, thank you for taking the time to answer all our questions. This is my third time (I mean my first rejection) and I am getting a bit confused now. I have carefully read your comments and I'd say what I have not yet tried is the page facelift. But I will. Although I don't know which direction to take. To revamp a website is a lot of work and I wouldn't like to get it wrong. My site is for Spanish audience and as you may not understand the content, it is based around 80's vintage objects, hence the look of the site with the weird colours (maybe I should get rid of grey backgrounds). The articles make reference to nostalgia and memories of Spanish 30-somethings. My site has some following on Facebook and people get pretty emotional. They are ripe for .....guess what... ebay objects. But eBay keeps rejecting me. What is it that I am doing so fundamentally wrong? Thanks a lot in advance for your help. PD: I am a Luxembourg resident, but the applications are submitted to eBay Spain. This has never been a problem for my membership to eBay or Paypal payments of course.. . but when it comes to the other way round.... Hi!

Ebay seems to be looking for quality sites in their applications and Build a Niche Store is the exact opposite. Additionally, BANS sites haven't worked very well for at least 3 years, so I would strongly recommend you consider going a different direction. Hi Mujdat,

Also I chose that my Business Type and my Primary Business Model are both “Other”. But, unfortunately, my application to ebay partnet network was declined. They sent me a mail by explaining some reasons of rejection. But I didn’t understand exactly the reasons why they declined my application. So I don’t know what to do in order to fix my website and apply again. So, if you can, I would like you to see my website and tell me some tips and tactics to fix my website in order to get accepted from EPN. I would be grateful if you could reply as soon as possible by giving help for that problem. Thank you in advance. Kind Regards, Mujdat Hi,

I put much of amazon's items there. “I strongly recommend you avoid cluttering your site with adsense and other affiliate offers before getting accepted into EPN”

Thanks for the advice Sam! Just in case anyone is wondering, I submitted an old blog of mine that I hadn't updated in about a year. All I did was: 1. Give it a facelift with a new Wordpress theme 2. Changed the dates on my posts to look like I had regularly updated it 3. Added 3 product review articles 4. Removed adsense ads If you want to see it you can click through my signature.
