Tips on How to Make eBay Your Website?s Traffic Provider
eBay has always been a potent force in the Internet and selling your products and services on this website will generate income for your business one way or another. But what if you want to use eBay for another purpose? What if you need to generate traffic for your website? Is there a way to lure even just a tiny portion of the millions of users of eBay to your website? Just imagine how many hits your website would enjoy each day if you can make eBay your website?s traffic provider. Well, it is possible and all you have to do is consider the following tips. Tip #1 Read the terms and conditions set by eBay for its users. Read them thoroughly and as you go through each policy, your mind would be able to absorb what it can and can?t do but at the same time develop ideas on how to get around such obstacles. Tip #2 Make good use of your user ID. This is the first thing that people will see and use to remember you. If you don?t have a user ID yet then it?s better to utilize your website?s URL as your user ID. With it, visitors to your store right away know where they should go if they want to see more of what you?re selling. Of course, if you already have an existing user ID, acquiring a new one means having to build a new customer base from scratch. Tip #3 Your feedback should always contain an indirect reference to your website. A direct reference is better, but you run the risk of violating eBay?s strict policies. You can, for instance, thank your buyer or seller and say it in behalf of your website ? which just happens to be name of your store as well. All your feedbacks should be well-written ? no grammatical errors ? and with eye-catching description that would make any passing visitor stop and take notice. If they?re intrigued by your feedback, they?d more than likely be interested in checking out your website. Tip #4 Use images on your eBay store as much as you can. And if they?re coming directly from your website, they will automatically show your website URL when they?re in the process of loading. You can also place the URL of your website on the photos itself. Tip #5 Take advantage of the About Me page provided by eBay. Use this page not only to build up your credibility as a seller and expound on the strengths and attractions of your eBay store but also to make another indirect reference or mention of your website?s URL. Tip #6 The email address you?ve used to register for your eBay account must be related to your website?s URL. If your website is www.myshop.com then your email could be something like inquiries@myshop.com. Tip #7 Last but not the least, maintain good relations with everyone you interact with in eBay. Although eBay has a program implemented to detect any policy violations, most of those who are apprehended are due to complaints made by other eBay users. No matter how good your strategies at driving traffic from your eBay store to your website are, they won?t do you any good if you?re liable to get caught.
