Using a blog to drive traffic to your store Ebay


Using a blog to drive traffic to your Ebay store. eBay has over 233 million users in their online community market. eBay provides a safe market trading for us, but eBay is also very competitive. There are ways to use the Internet to drive more traffic to your store.

Blogs are a great, free, fun, marketing tool. Blogging began as a way for people to write public daily journals, or have an online diary for the world to see. In the end, blogs started showing in searches on search engines, so the industry jumped on the marketing benefits of blogging. There are many free sites where you can start your own blog. If you have knowledge in a certain area, start a blog and talk about it. Your blog should not be about your eBay store, but helps drive traffic not if this is your goal.

The purpose of a blog is to create a place on the internet to promote your site and the traffic to it, to communicate with customers and target audience, and network with others in your field. Send clever, useful information on the subject and then put a plug-in on your business. Giving away free pieces of information, and then can post a link to your site, blog, or specific products that you sell. Encourage interest in the products you sell in your eBay store and provide a link.

Your blog post will appear on search engines. You can go online and use the material after the other - I often use quotes from Entrepreneur Magazine and Business Week. Just be sure to give credit to the author and the publication if you use a form of extract someone else's work.

You can also use a blog as a mini-site and add your affiliate links, Google AdSense and other advertising to create a stream of passive income. It 's important that you write about it regularly, at least 3 times a week, to keep it updated and keep fresh information go to the search engines. You should also look for other blogs that are in your same industry or niche, and and leave comments, and leave your website or blog address is included in their code and you're spreading all over the internet - free advertising . When leaving comments, make sure you read the post and leave an insightful comment, not just comments like "good article".

I can not tell you what a blog really works - I got paid consultancy work and other business relationships fantastic only because the right person, visited my blog and I liked what they read, or because they visited and left a review and in turn, controlled me. Moreover, if others in your field is and how your blog and your information, you can trade links and arm - more free publicity.

If you find a blog that you like, offer to write a guest post for them, the more free publicity. Just make sure that you are offering quality, intelligent information and then add a link to your site or blog, finally, in your signature. Your "give" is the article, the "take" is where you leave your link in your signature.

I make a habit, part of my weekly routine, comment on other people's blog a couple of times a week. I also keep a spreadsheet "good" ones, those with a lot of other comments, and visit those regularly. Then, other commentators see it, and there is more traffic to back you - and the ability to make connections to larger enterprise.

Every eBay seller should have a blog devoted to their eBay activities. I have 3 different blogs for 3 recipients: For my eBay consulting activities (target audience, eBay sellers), a pet blog (I have affiliate programs where I can gain on the sale of goods for animals) and a blog for business work at home moms .......
