Hello,
I am looking for a program, to check my listings on Yahoo, and if I am not in the top listed feature location, it will bid me to the top, but I cannot find one.
I list in a category that has some competition. The best way to get bids is to be in the #1 feature position, but of course there are a few people that try to get that spot, so I must check it every hour.
I am looking for a program that could check my feature placement every 5 to 10 minutes. If I am not in the top spot, it will bid me up to the top spot, but I could tell it the maximum I would want to spend.
A program like this seems like it would be easy to make, but it is well above me. If anyone knows of a program like this, please tell me. Or if a programmer can program something like this for me, I would be willing to pay someone.
I would be interested in a program like this for Amazon also.
That will depend on the category, but most of the time it is under $2.00 per day, often under $1.00 per day. But if you have an existing bid, and someone bids a penny over you (which is very common) the minimum you can raise your bid is by 10 cents.

i did a quick search on metacrawler and came up with a starting point for you I hope. Good luck!
PS. Actually I don't think that's going to help much. Sounds like a good little program for someone to write though.
