JEWELLS DREAMS BY VICKIE - A NICE PLACE TO VISIT

CONFUSED! What's NEW!

Starting my Ebay store is really a learning experience. I'm learning more about the internet now than I ever have. Html, feeds, etc., all over overwhelming for me. I've got a little add so my attention span is short and it's hard for me to comprehend things. Very hard. But I love selling on ebay and just wish I could figure out what the customers want. Do I need to change and buy wholesale, sell cheaper, better storefront and cheaper shipping. What? So I need help trying to figure out what I am doing wrong. I would love some support and advise from anyone that can give it.

Help - from an eager seller

rather than worrying about inventory, i worry more on been a good SEO. Keywords, promotions (off ebay blogs) can rank your store real high. I found opening a blog at www.wordpress.com is making a big difference on putting my name out there. Yahoo 360 blog is also recommended...MSN pages..google blogs etc are all great ways to bring traffic into your store. Check them out...they are all free and all i do is write one same blog then paste it in ALL my blogs out there. This work for me =)

good luck in your new store =)

I also think bongosmnia is a very nice guy! He shares a lot of good tips. I'm mowing over my compost because of him! I take a newsletter SitePro News: spn-aesop@sitepronews.com. I get a lot of useful info from them. I delete the ads (they are after all trying to make money) and just read the actual newsletter ones. I yellow underline as I read all the steps I want to consider and then just take some issues and go through them to implement. I check off what I have done. This is just one of many things I do to try to get my brain wrapped around this business. I'm a non-tech type person also.

Sorry just not back. That's good information winchuck. I will check out SitePro News. I tell you I'm still trying to figure out how to get my shop out there. I also have a shop on another site where I sell my handmade jewelry and it's even slow. I'm taking bongosmania advise and write blogs everywhere. It's time consuming but I'm doing it. I've started on wordpress. Let's see I have blogspot, indie, facebook, myspace, google (still trying to figure that one out). I've got a ton of items to put on eBay this weekend. Plus, I have some jewelry items. Anymore info put my way.

Thanks!
