Getting Started

[dardetim]

 I'm having a hard time finding ways to bring people to my store's page. Does anyone have any tips for a self-starter? Ideas of places to post a link to my Store's page?

Many people use social media, adding the store URL to the end of their signature.

And, it is (most often) a waste of money to have store subscription with just a few items ...

Yes I agree with the others.  You need more stuff up for sale.  Variety is always a good thing.

Ebay has a pretty big learning curve.

I’d suggest working on your pictures.

I don’t recommend starting auctions so low these days.

You don’t have enough listings up to create any kind of visibility or presence on the site (up through 2008 or so, you could function with 20 listings- now you need 100 or more).

I often share some of  my listings on Facebook .  Tulips

I notice you're selling a lot of Pokemon. Be sure to include Pokemon in each and every listing title. You'll show up better in search results.

Duh, me. Wrong reply box.

Study up on the best way to present your listings so they get picked up by Google and other Search Engines, referred to as Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Right now your doing a few things that can interfere with that.

Keywords in your titles are very important. Repeat those keywords in Item Specifics and in your Descriptions. Omit words not useful in Search (like “Wow”) because buyers won’t enter such terms when looking for their goods.

Other things like using all caps or adding punctuation to titles can interfere with SEO too. 

A couple of other notes:

Buyers want their items quickly. Review and compare shipping services. Often lightweight items can easily go First Class Package for similar costs to a longer shipping method like Parcel Post.

A very important policy, the eBay Money Back Guarantee, should be read and understood by all sellers because its terms can place them at risk for losing their items and/or payments. Below is a link to the policy for your perusal.

Yes. Look at other venues. Things are pretty bad for sellers here now.
