How to Sell Your Site on eBay

eBay is the best place to sell your web site. This marketplace is highly visible and receives oodles of traffic. Not only that, but eBay has a special category that allows you to sell web sites and gives you an idea of what people are looking for in a web site. And, finally as an online auction site, you can potentially make more profit flipping the web sites anywhere else. Why? Well, auctions tend to drive the price of products up because people compete with each other for the winning bid.

Many people get caught up in trying to get the winning bid in just as the auction is set to close, and so you often see the price shoot up just before your auction listing expires. Whereas, if you just had a retail price, you may never learn that people were willing to pay much more for your site than you expected.

However, there is a right way and a wrong way to sell your site on eBay. Your web sites won’t be the only ones listed there and you need to be competitive to get the attention to attract bidders and get the highest price possible. For that, you need to concentrate on selling the product the way eBayers expect and following eBay guidelines so that you can get great feedback after the sale.

Why Feedback Is Important

When you are a new seller, you may get a few people trying you out, especially if they like your offerings, but the more positive feedback you get the better chances you have of attracting more buyers. If you only have 1 sale and a 100% feedback score, obviously, no one is going to be impressed. You want to make many sales and have a high satisfaction level from your customers to impress eBay buyers who look at this rating closely. In addition, if you are seeking to make eBay Powerseller status you will need to make a certain level of sales and maintain a 98% positive feedback score to make the grade. But, once you do, you will end up with some very significant perks from discounts on listing fees to fancy tools and special services offered only to Powersellers.
