    Default How do Buyers Link to eBid Stores

    Hello-
    Does anyone know if there is a direct link from eBids home page to their
    stores? Also when you punch up an item in the search engines it will bring up auctions of the sellers but not their stores? I guess the point I am trying to make is how to make the best use of my store links and expose it to potential buyers. Thank you in advance for any suggestions--Betty

    Not quite sure what you are asking here or what you want to achieve. Could you clarify?

    If you just want to give people a link to your store then that can be got from several places and, for your currently running store, is:

    Code:
    http://us.ebid.net/stores/Staryiis-Gold-Gems-Coins
    Then there is the Stores tab at the top of the page.

    There is a link to stores on individual auction pages however they are extremely tiny and hard to find. Why this is I have no clue. You could put a larger link to your eBid store in your html description though.

    I just went into one of your auctions. The first line at the top has three links: the first one is to your store, the second is to the category you set up, and the third is a link to the item I was viewing.

    I've done this when looking at other items, it's the standard eBid setup. I grant it isn't intuitive, so maybe a lot of buyers won't realize how easy it is to get to the seller's store.

    a bigger store graphic link would be nice for those of us who are less intuitive.

    I think ebid could make better use of icons. Maybe they do in the new design. If we ever see it.

    The latest rumour is that the rollout date will be announced on Wednesday 18th.

    You could try adding the links yourself to your page, as this user has

    http://uk.ebid.net/perl/auction.cgi?...444&mo=auction
    Or this one
    http://uk.ebid.net/perl/auction.cgi?...067&mo=auction

    Several sellers do this adding a link to all their stores on each listing and also adding a link to their buddy link join option, to help people join, who have found you through a search engine.
