eBay

HI all, I feel like I knew how to do this several years ago when I was an active seller - but now I can't find it. All I want to do is promote my Ebay store at the bottom of my listings. I feel sure I'm just missing the "how" - help?! Surely we can put a link to our store?

Unrelated, but I keep setting up my listing frame; however, it's not showing up when I list. Clearly I'm missing something there as well. Thanks in advance!

Hi and welcome back! Are you wanting to add something like a scroll bar to your listings? In 2017, eBay banned active content. You can include a link to your store, tho. Here is more info on the subjects, below.

You're welcome to look at my listings and copy the HTML ... of course change it as needed.

I think all of my listings have:

just add the listing frame option to your listings, ebay also provideds a link to your store on all listings anyways.

The great truth is there isn't one

While this is true IMO as a seller you will always benefit if you repeat that function within everyone of your listing descriptions. Don't loose site of the fact that eBay is using every single one of your listings as an opportunity to sell up to 80 other eBay seller's somewhat similar items within your own listing. So creating one or two redundant links within your listing descriptions will help a little bit in tilting the odds; as the originating author of that listing, just a little bit more in your favor.

Even when a seller does this the odds are still going to be stacked against you. So IMO I might as well give myself the absolute best shot possible at capturing the sale.
