#ecommerce tip #4 - Get yourself a store on ebay.

Ebay is a fantastic method of selling your goods online. I have sold mid-high end expensive not flat packed furniture for a client previously and it is well worth the effort.

It helps generate extra interest via phone, people ask questions about your goods, which is great for business.

Store inventory format is a great way of listing all your products on a regular basis for a low cost, where you pay a final value fee but can list your products at a fixed price.

Just remember;

  • all transactions must be processed within ebay (avoiding fees is a no-no)
  • dont link out to your website, you can link to email addresses and internally within your ebay store
  • dont state that you accept cash or dont accept paypal
  • you have to accept paypal until you reach a feedback of 100 or more.

Visit ebay stores to get one today.

#ecommerce tip #3 - If your store is a personal one, then let your customers see you.

If your company is just you and you are happy with that, then let customers know and add your photo so that your customers can quickly relate to who they are doing business with. Its a great way of maintaining a very personal website.

Adding your photo to your about us page is usually the best place for the photograph, just make sure its a good one.

If you still want to portray a bigger company image, then simply make a reference to other staff and ensure you mention that you are the owner / ceo etc.

#ecommerce tip #2 - Setup google analytics! and get monitoring what your customers are doing when they visit your website...

Google Analytics is a fantastic tool for seeing what your customers do when they visit your website, it lets you see what pages they visit, where they came from on the internet, whether they made it through to buying your products (with a bit of advanced setup), where they left your website (bounce rate%) right down to what pc and browser they are using.

If you are not currently using it then I advise you get it installed.. it can be also used to track your online marketing efforts effectively.

If you find installing it yourself daunting then we can install it for you for a very reasonable fee.

Want to help Cancer Research UK?

Hi All,


Recent events, my own families experiences and life in general has finally prompted me to start giving something back, however have upto now always put off. I have since decided that all current projects and future projects will involve donations of some form and I will soon be setting up a regular personal donation.

The recent harrowing story involving Jade Goody has also hit home, so.

I have created a page on JustGiving.com in order to help support Cancer Research UK.

Any donation of any size would be fantastic, "lets do business 4 Cancer Research" and be positive.

In case you are not aware Google Adwords is a method of advertising in their search engine results and other websites where you pay-per-click when someone clicks one of your ads.

The amount you pay per click really depends on your business model and how much experience you have.

If used correctly it can be used to wield fantastic results.
