You just have to find the right ones with decent site traffic. And, it doesn't necessarily matter if there isn't much history on the sales of the categories of products you sell. I have been working on alternate sites for a while, and I doubted 1 or 2 of them late last year in 2010. Well, I came back this year and now there are listings of the types of items I sell and they are selling no problem.
The time and work is really just researching the different sites that get traffic and what type of traffic that may be. Also, many are using importers now, allowing to pull whatever you have from eB ay and CraigsList right into your store without having to relist your entire inventory each time you start working on a new auction site.
These sites are begging to pull people away from eB ay, so they are literally improving and increasing their own methods every day to do so as quickly and effectively as possible. |
