eBay / Amazon search data...

[viceroy]

Hey Acorners, I'm considering a project but it pivots on whether I can get some eBay and Amazon usage stats, the two key ones being 1. How many users of eBay also use Amazon? 2. Is there a way to get some eBay search stats kind of like the G keyword tool? Thanks in advance for any ideas...

Not sure how you could find out how many people use amazon that also use ebay, but to find the most popular searches on ebay (which can be split down in categories) use

http://pulse.ebay.co.uk/

Thanks

If you use the google adplanner, they have a metric called 'affinity' - which could give you a good indication between different sites.

Just had a look myself and the stats are distorted because of the number of ebay users who also visit paypal (surprise, surprise).

Regardless of the stats, I'd imagine there is probably a high correlation, given the high popularity of both sites in the UK.
