 I would like to hear all of the ways store owners use to get buyers to visit their ebay store.

Everything depends on what you're trying to sell.......An item that is wanted or popular, good price, sharp photo, good listing title & overall listing. Also, you need to understand whether or not your item is seasonal & understand that buyers are very cautious in their spending habits right now.

I use my social media connections.  They're located on the top right hand side of your listing page.  It's where it says "share"

Has worked for me in the past.  Also you may want to work on your pictures a bit.  Many are very blurry.   Other than that, nice shop!

Happy Selling.

I use HTML coding to highlight my Descriptions, so that even with a phone the customer is slightly more likely to see and read (fingers crossed) further information on the product.


<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"><font rwr="1" style="font-family:Arial" size="4"><!-- Auction ad begins here --><center><table cellpadding="10" border="2"><tbody><tr><td bgcolor="#CCFFFF"><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><center><b><font size="+5" color="red" face="Textile"><br><br>

 

 

And at the end of the description is a link to my Store.

<a href="http://stores.ebay.ca/REALLYNICESTAMPS" target="_blank">eBay Store </a>
</font></center></font></b></font></font></b></font></font></td></tr></tbody></table></center></font>

Since I'm no coder, and I've been using that snippet for over 20 years, I'm not sure anymore what it actually does, besides add the link.

Is this HTML: Different colors & sizing? Do you do this before hand then copy & paste it? Do all laptops do this?  Is there a place I can read how to do this? Sorry for so many ?'s  your answer was very interesting to me😊

Thanks!!

Best way to increasing traffic to your store, put a clickable link of your store at your items description..

This is the HTML code that you need to use at your listings description:

<hr><a href="PUT YOUR LINK HERE FROM PHOTOBUCKET" target="_blank">TEXT TO DISPLAY </a>

Good Luck.
