• To increase the sales rate of your products, use the bestseller badges for the most sold items on your listing. Bestseller badges increase the trust of the buyers on your product and they will buy It without any shade of doubt in their mind. Trusted sellers rank higher in eBay search ranking.

• If most of your listed items are doing well then, you can use GTC ( Good Till Cancelled ) Using this feature you won’t have to individually update the items in the listing. All you have to do is to pay the renewal charge and the listing would be there till you decide to take it off.

• If you are not seeing your stock getting all sold out, one of the major reason might be your shipping charges. Drop your shipping charges or even better, don’t charge any. People will get more interested in buying your stuff if they don’t have to think about the shipping charges.

• Promote your listed items on the social media platform. People need to know when you are updating items on your listing and the best way is through social media. Build a community or page around your products and post regularly. It will not only help you to make people aware of your items but will also help you to drive traffic to your eBay store.

• Use keywords in your product description. Don’t just randomly pick up the keywords, it will not get you relevant traffic and will affect your ranking instead.

How so?

When you use irrelevant keywords, irrelevant traffic also is derived. The irrelevant traffic then just views your product and leaves. As mentioned earlier, Cassini reads the data as to how many of the total viewers left without placing an order and reduces your ranking.

Hence it is necessary to use the keywords that have a decent search volume because keyword search volume really matters a lot in any case if you want to emerge on frequent searches. At the same time, it is also necessary that you use relevant keywords that are a niche.

• Ask for feedback from your customers. It is really necessary to get feedback and rating from the customers. There is a criterion of becoming a powerseller and that includes the number of rating and feedback. If your positive feedbacks keep exceeding, you may become a top rated seller. These rating and feedback will benefit you in increasing your ranking.

• You might not be getting positive feedback every time, but whenever you get negative feedback, revert to it as soon as possible and solve the issue in time unless you want eBay to take some actions on you.
