Recommended Resources
As the Anorak holds conversations with various people regarding eBay on a regular basis. Many questions arise on many subjects that start with, ‘How do I … ?’ or ‘What’s the best …?’
Well, here I’ll be adding a few links to resources I have used personally, have been recommended by others or I think may be of help to you in your quest for better eBay sales.
Bling! It
First off you can Boost Sales With Bling! It This nifty bit of software enables you to remove the usual background from your pictures and add a plain white or coloured background using a sort of ‘paint by numbers’ method, it will change your usual eBay pictures into the correct preset size for maximum effectiveness in gallery and within your listing. You can add a different background from another picture too. This gives a professional eye catching picture that will draw people into your eBay listing and create more sales.
The nice people at Bling! It let you have a free 14 day trial to play around with before you decide to buy. I have been using it on my bead photo’s for a while now and it definitely makes your item stand out from the rest.
Anorak Recommends you give it a try by clicking below
GoDaddy
www.GoDaddy.com for domain registry & hosting, you can build a website here too but I haven’t used this facility (my BlogMumaka Sue from Tamebay hosts this blog for me and a fine recommended hosting service it is too). Register your domain with Go Daddy and in a few simple steps you can have a .com or .co.uk web address that directs customers to your eBay store. You can put this domain on business cards, flyers, adverts etc, use it for facebook, myspace & tweet it to you followers.
For prices at around a fiver (depending on $/£ exchange rates) for a year it’s worth registering your web address before someone else does, even if you don’t intend using it for a while :)
