[QUOTE=ebayhateluv;24342]Chris...OMG, Fundamental... Supply + Demand..
WHY do we ALL want to go on ebay because there are so many Sellers on there??
NO, because so many BUYERS..sorry--2 to 1..)
Without sellers there would be no buyers. If there was no sellers on Ebay would buyers even think about coming to the site.

Now if there was a ton of sellers with excellent cheap prices on Ebay everybody(buyers) would flock there because word of mouth and seller advertising there E-stores....Internet Selling is a little diffrent then physical stores

Seriously would you go to a MAll if there was no sellers there or not a large diversity of products and sellers there???


Exactly

Hello!

Nice to see so much interest on eWaey.com.

I want to answer a few of the questions above.

Regarding getting new buyers; Yes that is a very hard thing to do. But you need to start with the sellers.

1) Educate the sellers.

a) Get the sellers to improve on TRUST by getting them to be verified, open up a store and get their FEEDBACKS started by purchasing from other sellers.
( this will automatically start a buying and selling cycle within the site.)

This is a constant objective that never ends since the site keeps getting new sellers. We need to keep educating.

b) Get the site's content up and constantly increasing. Since the site is free for the first 5000 members; The sellers have a chance to create content. Content is the only thing that will keep a COLD BUYER on the site. I call it cold buyer because he or she joins the site and buys the item right there!
Cold buyers are the hardest thing to get since the sites need to have the item he or she is looking for and the SELLERS need to have their feedbacks and be verified, plus have a good amount of items listed.

We are doing just that.

c) advertisements. We are going to start advertising on google and yahoo once the site and the sellers are prepared. Its like getting the shuttle ready for launch.

d) Promotion purchasing. This is an idea of mine. Sellers that would purchase 3 or more items within a months period would get a free banner advertisement on all eWaeys categories and forums. This way other sellers and cold buyers would see this particular sellers banners that would direct them straight to the sellers store or auctions.

e) Teams. We are preparing and getting teams ready around the world to spread about eWaey.com. Blogs, Forums, Myspace, Facebook, Squidoo,Emails and other ways.

These are only some of the ideas we are now putting to practice. I intend to get TV ads in the future. But that requires alot of money.

To really get things going you should setup an affiliate system so that publishers have the initiative to promote your site. That'll bring a lot of cheap traffic fast. Offer your new signups an affiliate URL which they can put on their personal sites, Myspace, forums, etc. Don't even ask new signups, automatically sign them up to your affiliate system, give them the URL and some details about what you offer them, and you might be surprised at how many people will promote your site. Good luck.

Boy- Very Cavalier , ASpkin...

Now, how many People will let someone come onto their site, advertise Their Business + then HELP them with Good, Viable Suggestions??
Nice Guy..Aspkin is..

[mantisinc]

Looks like it could have potential. The only thing that puts me off is PHPprobid. If you could reskin it to make it look unique, I think it would be fantastic.

But seems that to many auction sites that I have come across that are powered by PHPpro have that skin.

Nice work though

[ivegotinfo]

cool, just made an account.

[ebayhateluv]

Hey, I did also.. We should ask the Ewaey guy-- if we all pm him, we need to have lifetime IMMUNITY..should they get big and the Trust + Safety folks from ebay come over there to work in the next few years....
so- our accts NEVER can be suspended.......)
-we would be grandfathered under the Founders Clause )

[alexsandro pomposelli]

Hello

Yes we re-skin is in the future.
Yes once you are a preferred seller with us it is FOREVER. 100% free. You guys will be eWaey's base and we need that. We need you! We need you to list like the wind.
Regardin Phpprobid... We did experiment with RSCRIPT. It did not do what we expected. Phpprobid is by far the most complete script. Its not perfect but we are designing the things that are not perfect to be perfect. For example. It does not support GOOGLE BASE. We just got that in last week. Our PHP designer put that in for us. Anything that is needed will be done.
It also has the ability to generate one invoice for multiple sales which RSCRIPT does not. Plus it has alot of features that is not in RSCRIPT. Our PHP coder also created our EWAEY BASE feature in our forums. This feature is a tremendous and powerful feature. It gives our forum content and all your listings will show in search Google and the worldwide web.
We just hired a PHP coder and we also have a graphic designer. We are about to change a few things on the front page and we just got 5 new banners.
Yes we will be doing banner exchange. We will also have banners on our google adwords ads.
Any questions please feel free to ask.

eWaey is not my site only. It is the members and we need more associates, people willing to help.

eWaey's president.

Yes, its called get your own MERCHANT ACCOUNT

There is a section on ewaey where you can setup your direct payment method, authorize.net and some others.

[ytl]

Do ewaey publish buyer stats?

Rather than just measuring how many listings are up, could we measure how many listings are bought? Numbers or buys, and percentage of listings would be great. Also traffic stats in general.

Even if they aren't amazing statistics, we can watch them grow over time, present them with a time graph, and we can easily see growth.. I think that would help me a lot to get involved with ewaey, not necessarily high numbers but an indication of buyer market growth. Break the numbers into categories, and represent them on time graphs, and we can not only see growth but trends.

I think if we can judge the rate of growth, we can priorities ewaey accordingly, and decide when would be a good time for us to begin listing. This would mean that we don't all jump at the same time, but that doesnt really matter because success is measured far more by buyers than sellers.

Naturally, any seller knows that there will probably be dips and rises in buyer activity, particularly on a seasonal basis and that kind of transparency would certainly reflect the proposition that ewaey will be maintaining a strong channel of communication between themselves and sellers.

Well.. thats all I have to say I think

Hello

Yes we have a project called payway.com and it is one of our future objectives to have our own paypal like site.

Yes we want all of you to join! Lets make eWaey HUGE!

Alex

[twdell]

can i list adult material on your site?

[alexsandro pomposelli]

I have to talk to the other managers at eWaey.com. You may join and present your case and category suggestions. I can say this right off the bat; If eWaey allows you to list that type of items it will be only viewed by 21 and older.
Anyway; You will need to talk to the other associates regarding that. I am the president but eWaey is now currently managed by a board of 10 people. This way we can all shake our heads at something in a way that it wouldnt be unfair to anyone.
We are now developing our own SAFE HARBOR DEPT. This will be a team of people that will look, verify and analise any problems that may come up within our community in respect of purchases, sales and other stuff. They will vote on decisions. It will not be just one persons opinion.
