Ebay Shop

Also to keep the rating up, if you run out of something, just edit the price to a silly amount, Coralgraph do that all the time, especially when they run out of 11oz mugs etc!

I see some shop templates and they annoy me as a buyer because the layout is different to a standard ebay page or I can't find a search box. Some templates are badly written, some are fine, some are out of date and look seriously bad. There are dozens of variables which put you on page one, firstly a cheap price when comparing that keyword with competing keywords.

wasnt having a go at you gary, and yep some shops are dated to say the least....

tbh, shops now are not really needed, apart from the holiday settings...if you look at omniture on ebay, and check out shop store front visits, that will say it all for ya bud....
most punters use search and very seldom look at sellers full shop front ect...

but it is handy for sorting out your cats, eps if you have lots or products for sale....it can assist buyers

but most of all for the hols settings - when it was busy ( ha, long time ago ) you had to fire on the hols settings to catch up....if you didnt have a shop then, you would be in the **** if you couldn't cope with orders :tongue:

I mentioned this on another thread, but the shop is more important for google that it is on ebay. The shop feed gets sent to Google Shopping and having a permanent static shop with keywords in the categories are great for the organic results. Using 'disposable' 7 day listings doesn't benefit your Best Match or selling history. In the past when I did ebay seriously, I'd always benefit from multiple purchases from the shop instead of the customer straying off to a competitor in ebay search.
