Continuing our discussion on the incredible, ever-growing invisible eBay store phenomena, here are a few more tips and ideas to boost YOUR eBay store’s visibility ~ in addition to the ones we gave in our last post.

These are a few more things you can do for your eBay store that you actually have control over.

First, blog your listings. Besides Twittering your listings, use your blog to get the word out.

Be creative!

Tell your blog audience a little bit about the item. Be descriptive, add factoids or whatever is appropriate to the item, add a little humor ~ whatever works. Just don’t hard sell because that’s not only a boring read, it really doesn’t establish the fact to your readers that you are either an expert in your field or at least quite knowledgeable about your item.

Your blog post should contain no less than 3 links ~ one directly to your eBay store, one to the item category, one to the item itself. ALWAYS add your referral code to the end of every link ~ ?refid=store ~ so that if someone does follow the link and does buy that item or another item from your eBay store you will get your 75% credit on your final value fees.

This is a very important part of your online marketing strategy. In every post give your eBay store full exposure with what I like to call the 3 Link Rule ~ store, category, item; and give yourself the opportunity to save some money on those final value fees.

Second, if you run any affiliate websites, an online magazine, or have any online venue where you are able to add advertisements, again, get creative.

Create an online ad for one or more of your eBay store categories and make sure that each link that goes back to your eBay store category of course has your referral code ~ ?refid=store ~ on the end so that if someone click the ad link and buys you save 75% on the final value fees.

Your own ads on any of your online venues are every bit as important as any Google or Amazon ads. In fact, depending on how you look at it, even more important as they are marketing YOUR eBay store and YOUR products that you want to sell. Eventually, depending on your level of determination and persistence, these links will bring your traffic and sales.

Third, you may consider giving your eBay store a real shot in the arm with some eBay Store SEO.
