| Make Your eBay Listing Stand Out From The Crowd |
I've seen loads of eBay listings that scream amateur. If you're just selling junk from your attic it doesn't
matter too much but if you are aiming to make your living on eBay, you need to project a professional image.
Check other peoples listings to see what works and what doesn't. Some people use a large typesize and
CAPITAL LETTERS throughout. This looks rubbish! They must think that by listing like this gets attention - it
doesn't, it turns people off. I've also seen professional listings full of clutter. Basically, prospective buyers
want to be able to read what they are getting for their bucks without straining their eyes or searching all over
the page.
They also want to feel confident in making their purchase - that's why a professional looking listing will
score greatly over an amateur looking one.
The easiest way to present a professioanal image is to use templates. There are plenty of free templates
online, you can find them through Google. Visit a few free template sites and select templates that suit your
products. The templates are usually in the form of html code with areas for you to add your descriptive text
and images. You simply copy and paste the code into eBay's html editor (item description).
Pictures are great salesmen so you will want to add some. You will need to have your pictures hosted, I
use photobucket which is quite easy to use. You copy and paste the images 'direct link' into the template
html code where indicated.
Its' worth learning a bit of html which isn't difficult, it enables you to include a few cool professional
additions to your listing. A good place to start with html is "ebay Add HTML To Your Listings", it makes
basic HTML easy and includes lots of fancy gizmos and freebies to liven up your listings.

So to sum up, keep your eBay listings neat, tidy and easy to read and professional. Look at other peoples
listings to see what works for you and what doesn't. Add images, people like to see what they are buying or
bidding on.
