Online Business – Selling Stuff
Dealing with Generational Changes
From the category archives:
I just heard about a new site called NetSpray.com. They are another idea for moving away from Ebay.
Their system makes it easy to create a widget and the code you need to display it. Your item(s) with descriptions, prices, etc. live on their servers. You can insert the widget anyplace where you have access. Your own site, social media sites, etc.
For example, here is the first widget I created for an item we are planning to sell.
Completed sales have price information about the items sold. Our statistics from collectibles websites show the most common search is by visitors trying to figure out what their item is worth.
A completed sale, with pictures, a description, and some information from the sale will be a big help for this.
It also removes a major annoyance I had with selling unique items. It really annoyed me to do all the photo and writing work and then throw it away as soon as the auction ended. That feels like a treadmill and I want no part of it. By keeping completed item information on the site it adds to content, provides value for visitors and may even generate some income from contextual advertising.
