 Make outside links to your Ebay Auctions
By Mitz
Make as many links as possible
on other sites pointing to your Ebay pages. This will give you more people to
get trapped into your auction loop. Here’s some tips:
-
Use keywords in your About me
and Store pages.
Auction pages often do not get indexed into the search engines
because they do not last long enough. However the About me page and Your store
are permanent fixtures. Therefore you should use keywords, meta tags, etc to
make sure these pages get the most exposure possible.
-
Create an editors kit
to put on your site
or someone else’s.(If you are an affiliate you cannot get commissions for
promoting your own auctions.) The links are above in the Ebay affiliate section.
There is an editor’s kit on my homepage. It list up to the minute auctions that you can click on and
then view.
-
Create a blog or website.
There are plenty of free options out there. You can make an
Ebay blog which allows you to put a link to anywhere you like on there.
-
Put your Store URL into your
email signature:
Most email programs like Hotmail, Gmail and Yahoo! Mail give you
the option of creating a personalized signature and will automatically attach it
to the bottom of every email you send.
-
Post in the online forums:
Selling
computers? Go to blogs and other discussion forums where they are a topic of
discussion and post your thoughts. When you sign off, include a link to your
Store. (If it is allowed.)
-
Put your URL on your thank-you
note: If you
include a thank-you note in your eBay packages — and we recommend that you do —
include your URL so happy customers can give you repeat business.
-
Collect opt-in addresses and
send out email promotions:
Build a mailing list and you can market to the same people over
and over again... specials, promotions, cool new products... whatever. Just
include a link to your store or auction.
-
Post information about your
store in blogs?
Find a few quality blogs that attract your target market and post
a few messages. You don’t have to make a blatant sales pitch. In fact, you
shouldn’t! A blatant pitch will be considered comment spam and is generally
frowned upon. Just let people know who you are and where they can find you
online.
-
Advertise in a free newspaper in the real world.
I use the weekend Shopper in
the Courier Mail QLD. They have free ads for anything up to $500. They let you
put links to sites in your ad.
Check it out!
-
Use a Website Traffic tool.
I use Linkreferral
to get people to my site and to Ebay auctions. It really works and its FREE. I
have tried hundreds of other traffic programs but they do not work.
