Hello everyone Happy late Valentine,I have a question,I just set up my store a week are so ago and all I take is paypal payment,Does anyone think I should take google checkout instead,to make it easier for my customers,I haven't sold anything yet,and I was wondering if that is why.

I think your text pages might have something to do with it.
There are spelling mistakes and grammatical errors and really not much info at all.
There is nothing in the "Contact" part so I personaly wouldnt buy anything from a store like yours.
Poor information will not instill confidence in your buyers.
I would add GC and keep paypal too, More options for the buyer.
Hope this helps??

I doubt if that's the reason, because it takes time for buyers to find you, and the more you promote your store and link to others, the more traffic you'll generate for yourself. Like other sellers here, I had my store open for a few months before I made my first sale, so be patient.
However, I would definitely advise adding Google Checkout to your payment options... it's secure, easy to use, and free til 12/08...and they direct deposit into your account.
And, you can still use PP to print your shipping labels;

what's not to like? lol |

Hey 'Cher!
and all !
I dood it! I got my Google checkout set up and running! I feel like a kid with a new toy!
I've been editing my items all morning, all over. I need to add more and will get to that soon. I've still left the option of PayPal, along with Google, but added that I prefer the Google. Do you think that is all right, at least for now until I can basically eliminate PP?
Also, when you say you still use PP for the shipping labels, how do you do that? I always found that when a payment doesn't come through PP it won't let me use the 'shipping' area. It would be neat if I could. How do you make it work?
I still have so much work to do!!
Thanks in advance!

Hi again
My other posts sounds really critical but only trying to help.
You do have some really nice things in your store!
I also wanted to remind you of your missing "image here" pic and FAQ pages (I MUST get around to that also!!!!!) |

WTG Myra! Yuppp you can still print your labels with PP/USPS ~ just use that link I provided above... once you log in, you can fill out all the info just as if they used PP to pay. I have it on my desktop for easy access |

WTG, Myra ! ! !
Cher, is that only if you are shipping via US Mail? I assume it is. I mean you can't use Paypal to ship say FedEx, correct? |

Hi, SS! Happy late valentine's day to you, too. I don't think your payment methods are the reason you haven't sold anything, it just takes time, so keep working on your site/store, and make sure to read all the tips in the SEO and how to promote your store threads. They are jampacked with great ideas!
I would definitely offer Google Checkout, it's always best to offer your customers secure payment method available. Just be aware it takes a couple of days til it posts to your bank account. Good luck! |

Jeez Elf ~ I'm not sure, but I would imagine whatever shipping options are available with PP payments, would also be offered. I've never sent anything FedX so I have ni ~ Cher |

FedEx isn't one of their shipping methods so that tells me what I need to know. |
