I registered yesterday and posted some items. At the time, I could search out my postings. I also had some clicks right away.

But today I found when I search "mp4 player" which is contained in my postings, there is not any result coming out for my postings. I then listed two new one, still no luck.

Anybody knows why?
eCrater blocked me?
Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Are you selling items from a drop shipper? OR do you own the items?
Are you part of an affiliate program?

My suggestion is that you read the terms of selling on ecrater.com

Do you mean searching from the main ecrater.com site or from within your own store?

Thanks.

"3.4 All products from affiliate websites will not be posted to Froogle. They will not be included in searches in the main eCRATER marketplace and will appear at the bottom of the respective categories. Affiliate website is a website provided with products, images and texts from another company to sell their products. Dropshippers and distributors are considered as affiliate too."

I think this is my problem.

However I do store these products and they are ready to be shipped.

Create your own google base feed, it's not all that hard. Use a spreadsheet program, whichever one is on your computer, and make sure and follow the "Rules" at Google.

The main thing is to make sure you have all the REQUIRED attributes:

Quote:
Attributes for all products
You are required to include these attributes for all of the items in your bulk upload file. If you do not have information for an attribute, you may substitute a different attribute instead, such as a specific item type attribute or an additional attribute.

brand
condition
description
expiration_date
id
image_link
link
price
product_type
title


You can browse here for more specific attributes, depending on what you sell:

http://base.google.com/base/products.html

Make sure you have the entire spreadsheet formatted to "general" "top" alignment and use the word wrap.

Add a couple of things to see if you get any error messages, save yourself the hassle of adding jillions of things and having the whole file kicked out.

I recommend using an FTP program to submit your file, it's SO much easier than using that darned Google submit button. Filezilla is free and very easy:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=21558

Once you have a proper feed crafted, submitted, and accepted, you can go ahead and add all your products. I resubmit mine every other day, keeps things up high in the search results.

More work, I know, but this way, you are submitting ONLY your things, and you are also adding backlinks to your ecrater store, always a good thing.
