Thread: A heads up, or in this case eyes up.

  1. #1

    Lightbulb A heads up, or in this case eyes up.

    There is supposedly a new social media craze called eyebombing.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-25449223

    So if any of the craft people have packs/bags/sheets of googly eyes for sale (or can get some) then an important keyword for the title is eyebombing.

    Current search results for the keyword eyebombing are:

    eBid 0 results
    The bay 0 results
    Google Shopping 2 results (but not what the consumer would be looking for).

    If it really is a growing craze then this is a potential opportunity - but you need to be quick.

    You are not too late, far from it.

    bay search results for eyebombing = 0
    Google Shopping = 2 (but still not relevant)
    eBid = 2 (but doesn't have GS exposure)

    Of course it is debatable on the scale of this so called craze, but I can't really believe you can have an article on the BBC website and still have a complete void of listings anywhere with the keyword of the craze. It is the type of thing I would like to see on Google Shopping to test it.

    And Damian seems to be having fun

    Books and Damien,
    How big are the ones you have and are they stick on or safety ones with washers?
    The ones I have are 20mm safety. I can get stick on ones and bigger ones but from China so wouldn't
    be quick enough anyway

    I think they need to be stick on. I have tiny ones (somewhere), not sure if they would suit
