Dont get it????

I dont get it. I have a ton of lookers, but no sales.

Hang in there. I get sales, I just can't get the customers to input their addresses into the paypal form when they check out from ecrater. The address is in ecrater, just not in PayPal account history.

And when you sell items at my prices, you definitely only want to ship to paypal confirmed addresses.

Have you gone through this advertising/promoting thread?
http://www.ecrater.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=4

How long has your store been set up? It can take a couple of months for the search engines to really find you.

Also, my impression is that some of our hits come from the store itself. Like any time an item is seen -- whether it's a customer clicking on the item or the item showing up in the Featured Items area on your front page -- a hit is counted. And, of course, whenever you look at your own items, a hit is counted there too.

ZERO advertising.

IMHO -- It is all about the listing title.

Then it is about the volume of those listings.

I did a Google search and there are no links to my ecrater store. Once I can get some links out there, I would expect my Page Rank to increase. Get the Page Rank to increase, I believe Google automatically places you higher in the listing pages.

Several of my items are listed in the first page of regular google search. More in the top 5.

Let me look through your site to see if I can hook you up with some ideas.

TREASUREBOUTIQUE - you are selling in a very competive market - that anyone can buy "wholesale""dropshipped" all they have to do is a search online and they can buy at "wholesale" prices too.


I quick search on google for one of your items tells me

YOUR PRICE $19.99 + 8.99 shipping = $28.98
Others prices for the same item
$23.90
$23.10
$22.00
$25.94
$23.92

ALL the exact same item. there are 38 of them in froogle alone. Priced (excluding shipping) range from $9.89 to $40.
Your items do not come up in froogle because the terms of ecrater.com exclude them from going to froogle. So the only way you will sell them is to go get your customers yourself.

You might try getting with a local school and offering them 10% of everything sold that uses a special code you set up in google checkout - also giving the buyer a discount.

GOOD LUCK.

I see competitive pricing, decent keywords. Maybe place "black americana" in your titles for the appropriate items.

For TINKERBELL BANK I found you in Froogle on the first page, but other sellers are about $5.00 cheaper. Suggest getting prices closer together. add a few different keywords like material this is made out of, color, brag about it in your listing.

Hope this helps alittle bit.

Do you also sell on eBay or other venues? Only copy successful techniques. I use the same techniques and I have things everywhere:
eBay
ecrater
yahoo
ioffer
my two personal websites.

I have made sales at all of them. Of course eBay is the most sales.

I think that what may be happening is that Froogle is limited the amount of same items. I would try to change up the titles with more details and wait about 3-4 days to see what happens when you search for your listings.
