Whether you are an eBay newbie or a seasoned Power Seller, these two simple tips can keep you ahead of 90% of your online auction competition.  If you aren’t doing these two things, you can bet you aren’t making the kind money on eBay that you can.

Use Your Keywords in Your Auction Titles

This may seem obvious, but I am amazed when I see people who don’t do it.  More than 70% of eBay buyers use the eBay search feature to find the items they are looking for.  The basic search feature on eBay’s home page or listing page searchese all the auction titles for the keywords you enter.  If you haven’t used keywords that would normally be used by a buyer in your title, you could miss more than 70% of the potential buyers who are looking for your product.

Today, I would like to tell you about one of the best sources I have found for finding top quality, low priced products you can sell on your eBay auctions for tremendous profits.  Finding eBay hot items at low prices is one of the keys to creating a lucrative business on eBay.  You have several choices, when it comes to acquiring eBay products at rock bottom prices.

• Drop Shippers
• Wholesalers
• Liquidators

In order to acquire your eBay products with the least expense, you must cut out all the middlemen and work directly with the manufacturer or the manufacture’s distributor.  You will need to contact several wholesale sources, in order to identify the company that can supply you with your eBay hot items at the lowest prices.

Today, I am going to tell you about a technique you can use to accomplish three objectives, which are critical to “squeezing” the most money possible out of your online auctions.  I am going to show you a simple strategy you can use to:

1. Figure out the highest price your item is likely to get
2. Double the number of hits your auction receives
3. Instantly get “warm” buyers to view your auctions

Let me give you an example of how I use what I call the “Instant Page Views” strategy to accomplish these objectives.  Once you see how I do it, you will easily be able to incorporate this simple strategy into your own online auctions and make more money on eBay.

How would you like to know, without any doubt, what sells on eBay?  What if eBay told you what they think will be the hottest sellers, in the coming season?  What if you could get a list of the items eBay was planning to feature on their front page?  Do you think you could make money on eBay, if you knew the eBay hot items, in advance?

Well, it isn’t really a question of ”if you could” make money, but rather a question of how much money you could make.  Once you know what sells on eBay, all you have to do is line up a reliable wholesale product source for the items, start selling them… and watch the balance of your PayPal account skyrocket.

Deciding what to sell on eBay is one of the most important decisions you will make. With more than 20,000 categories and sub-categories, your choices are virtually limitless.

Most eBay sellers caught “the eBay bug” the same way. First, they began selling a few things around the house to generate some extra income. Then, when they found out how easy it was to convert “dust collectors” into cash (in only a few days), they started selling everything that wasn’t nailed down.
