THE QUESTION: Who does Google like better? eBay.com or little ol’ ME?
It looks like in at least one big example Google picks ME!
PROOF: Do a google search on the term ‘ebay classified ads’.
As of today (and for the last several months) eBay’s very own site with the SAME TITLE ‘ebayclassifiedads.com’ appears BELOW my youtube video on the subject.
Now to avoid confusion, my youtube video on the subject is about the classified ads that appear on the actual eBay site where there is actually a LOT of traffic that sees the ads. Watch the youtube video to see what I mean.

…while the ebayclassifiedads.com site is a pretty blatant attempt on eBay’s part to try to steal some thunder (aka market share) from craigslist.com.
Good luck eBay…I fear you are too late. NO ONE uses eBayclassifiedsads.com that I know of…but it is officially owned, promoted, and search engine optimized by the billions of dollars behind eBay.com…and they must HATE that I show up above them.
Hey eBay and Google…when you ‘do lunch’ sometime to sort this all out mind if I come along? If eBay is picking up the tab I’ll have surf and turf (lobster and steak). If Google is picking up the tab I’ll buy instead in exchange for a PR8 for my blog (PR8 = a lot more google love for lil’ ol’ Jimbo).
