I calculated in Nov last year my facebook and twitter accs generated 30% of that months turnover.
BUT they are directed to our website not ebay.
Was really hard going at first and i ended up buying an amount of followers and likes to start the ball rolling but it turned out to be well worth it.

Very nice I should kind of do the same! In the near future putting a note with all my sales for facebook page like or twitter and offer daily tips!

Have your friend do some for you! :)

Networking......

Go where you must to get what you want

:juggle:

Also stan from my understanding. Ebay gives you a discount if you bring traffic from outside to make a sale! You didn't know about this one did ya?

They pay less fees also! Plus ebay offers power sellers pension plan! So maybe it's why they are doing it like this.

Well, I guess it depends on the product you're selling. For me, I'm doing almost more than I can handle without paying for any advertising to drive outside traffic to the listings. Keep in mind that advertisements don't mean that someone will end up buying it. On the contrary, they may go to your listing first and then end up buying someone else's, especially if they're shown "similar items from other sellers" by eBay.

Yes, it actually does. How many times have you gone onto Google's page 2 of search results? I can't remember the last time I have. The same goes with eBay. Most buyers will find what they're looking for on page 1. With my Top-Rated accounts, I get 160-200 page views in the last 24 hours. With my Above Standard account, I get 15-20 page views in the last 24 hours. The difference is HUGE. Now, it's up to you if you want to believe it or not.

Very interesting. Never seen anyone mention this before. :noidea:

If you're saving money from Ebay then those savings can be used to offset outside marketing cost and you have much more control of your destiny.

Can anyone verify this info???

90% of ALL the traffic goes to the Top 5 listings on Page One, period.

Less than 10% of all searches visit Page 2 of any search engine.

Page 3 gets less than 5%.

You can hide dead people on pages 4+, no one will ever find them.

OOPS Not pension but health plan here dental etc.

What is a Store Referral Credit?

Store Referral Credit is a credit that Store sellers are eligible to receive when they successfully drive buyers to their eBay Store directly from a location outside of eBay. With Store Referral Credit, eBay will give you a 75% credit on your Final Value Fees when your marketing efforts generate sales of your Store Inventory format listings. Here's how it works:

You promote your eBay Store or your Store Inventory items from locations outside of eBay, such as other Web sites, emails to buyers, print advertisements, and so forth.
A buyer sees your promotion and goes directly to your eBay Store or one of your Store Inventory items.
The buyer purchases one of your Store Inventory items.
On your monthly invoice, you are charged the regular Final Value Fee, but you also receive a Store Referral Credit. Like the Final Value Fee, the Store Referral Credit is based on the final value of the item. The Store Referral Credit is roughly equal to 75% of the standard Final Value Fee.

I think he was being sarcastic. :dance:

No not sarcastic KimJon. Just I got it wrong too me this is all the same here in this country but in the US it's different! I'll get you guys the final value link. I read about it last year. If you bring traffic outside of ebay you also get a discount on the final value sale.

Yes, ebay now offers a dental plan to their sellers to help defray the costs of getting kicked in the teeth by ebay`s absurd policies. :suspicious:
