Use eBay as Cheap Traffic!
by Chris Everson
Did you know that according to alexa, www.eBay.com is ranked number
8 out of over 36 billion sites on the web? (36,000,000,000!). On average,
it recieves 40 million hits daily, and of that, its average user views
17 pages. Thats impressive! Whats also great, is that most listings get
at least 50 very targeted views. If you can get listed on eBays The Pulse
(most popular internet auctions) you are guaranteed at least 5,000 visitors
to that listing, and many of them will click through to your site, affiliate
link, whatever makes you money.
Your probably thinking, big deal, its almost like a ppc. What you probably
dont realize is that you have COMPLETE control on the content of your
ad (errlisting?). Two to three sentences not cut out to describe your
site accurately? Then dont bother with Overture or Adwords, (Or kanoodle,
goclick, etc etc) as they only offer you a few senteces.
The price of a listing that can potentially garner you over 1,000 visitors?
About THREE DOLLARS!. What PPC campaign can offer you such bulk, targeted
visitors with such minimal cost and effort? Not any that I can think of!
Another great thing, is that your listing doesnt cost more or less based
on your keywords! No more spending upwards of 2 dollars (overture expenses
anyone?) for keywords such as Make Money or Real Estate Profits, or
even upwards of 7 dollars for keywords such as Website Promotion. Simply
amazing.
The only pitfall of this is that you must have an actual product to
bid on. Many simply dont think too hard about this, and try to sell an
email or sales letter, or something of no real value, just so they can
justify their listing on eBay. What you SHOULD do however (if you own your
own product, this is harder to do with an affiliate link) is sell your
own product!
Simply modify and copy your sales letter as your listing. EBay is notorious
for quick shoppers who are very irrational when buying things. Candy wrappers
selling for over 100$ sound odd to you? Not on ebay. Some eBay bidders
actually make it a habit to buy and collect this stupid crap, and resell
it all as a Greatest Hits of eBay collection. Now thats smart thinking!
You want to take that a step further? Write an ebook about eBay mystery
auction, and strange auction in general, or a guide on how to think of
such crazy ideas and sell that very product on eBay!
You can probably understand why you should consider eBay one of the
most unique prospects on the internet. Its like the search engines USED
to be, where you are guaranteed hits and visitors no matter what the field,
and where being outrageous pays off. Maybe you should check out eBay a
