    Default Disappointing search results/sales

    Okay, we have a very new ebid store, but absolutely none of it shows up on google searches. If I list on ebay it will show within a day. Currently we sell around 100 items a day on ebay - looking to do more on ebid but am wondering if its worth my while paying staff to up load sales here?

    Try reading item 48 of http://www.ebid.net/uk/help/selling-on-ebid

    From a quick look at your listings there are some possible issues that would prevent eBid uploading your items to Google Shopping.

    (Note that eBid does have some odd [i.e. incorrect] interpretations of Google's rules)

    I have been here for many years - have sold NOTHING...ZIPPO....I first started with auctions then just posted, now every 30 days I get the dreaded....WE ARE GOING TO REMOVE YOUR LISTINGS as YOU HAVE NOT LOGGED IN - WHY>>>> NOTHING HAS SOLD - ONCE - JUST ONCE a bid was received and won - but they NEVER PAID - and it toook FOREVER,.....to get the fees they took out of the listing.

    I post on Ebay and sell about 50 items a month there - you can guess where I will be listing more items - even on Bonanza I sell a few here and there - NOTHING ON HERE - what a waste of $49.99. LIFETIME - HA....only until they wipe your listings clean - 'cause NO ONE sees them - maybe other countries have better luck - but Ebid in the USA has NOTHING for me.

    The reason you get the "We are going to remove your listings as you haven't logged in " message is that your listings are run until sold. There was a big problem with sellers who list items but when they get a sale the buyer gets no response. If you have not logged on to your account for 30 days eBid presume that you are no longer active. If you want your items to remain listed surely it is not too much to log in to your account once a month. Obviously you do not list very often because you have to log on to list new items.

    Don't watermarks on images prevent upload to Google? I'm sure I read this somewhere on eBid.
