Market Research Tools On Ebay – Gold Dust When Listing On Ebay

Choose Your Words Carefully

     We’ve talked about finding keywords or phrases that potential buyers type in to find your product and using them in the title and subheading.

     You use them in the title so that your listing shows to more people.

     You use them in the subheading so that more of the people who have searched for it, click on it.

     This time I will show you what else you can do with these keywords. I am also going to teach you how to use eBay’s market research tool to find these keywords… and some other interesting things you can do with it.

     First, let me tell you all about it cos it’s really good…
 
     EBay’s market research tool is mainly for sellers but buyers can also benefit from the information it gives you.

     If you’re a buyer (to resell) then you can find out which listings are performing poorly compared to the rest of the listings in that specific category.

     This means that you can see if an item can make you a profit if you resell it with an improved listing.

     If you find an item that sold for, say, £15 but you also find a very similar item that sold for far more, say, £25 – £30 then you have found something that may sell very easily.

     You can now look at each of the two listings to see how each of them did it. What was done right and what was done wrong.

     What you do is type your chosen keyword into the market research tool, click ‘Run research’ and (eventually) you’ll be shown a list of keywords that either contain your keyword or are relevant to your keyword. This is highly valuable information as both a buyer and a seller.

     When the list of keywords show up, there will be a ‘Unique searches’ number over to the right of the keyword which tells you how many people searched for that particular category.

     This shows you how large your market is.

     To the right of the unique searches number, there is a column titled ‘Actions’. This column usually contains links to a load of listings that come under that keyword.

     This is where you can find poor performing listings to snap up and resell.

     That’s why I get a bit excited with this market research tool.

     That’s if you’re a buyer. As a seller, it gets even better!

     For a start, when you do keyword research with this tool, you are given the exact phrases that people have used in eBay to search for items related to that keyword.

     This means you can perfectly match the keywords you use in your title and subheading with the exact keywords used by eBayers.

     In other words, it helps increase sales by helping you target your title and subheading to the buyer.

     (By the way, only a tiny fraction of sellers on eBay have figured this out. And the ones who have are keeping it VERY close to their chests… this is NEW stuff!)

     Another thing you can do with this is to see how many listings a specific keyword has under it, the day most sales where made for that type of product (remember, listings with two full Sunday viewings get the most but not all end on a Sunday). This allows you to instantly spot hot keywords.

     You’ll be shown graphs telling you if the prices for items in that keyword are going up or coming down. If they’re going up, hoorah! If they’re going down, the trend may or may not continue but you can safely say that the ‘juice’ is running out.

     The trick with using that information is to buy an item that is on its way up and sell when it begins a decent.

     A little bit like buying and selling shares.

     Don’t buy items to resell if their prices are on the way down. Only buy items to resell if they’re on their way up.

     Similarly, if you’re trying to find clients of hot selling products then choose

     sellers of items that the prices of which have been steadily going up.

 Make sense?

     Now then. At this point I think it would be best if we take a step back. Before I go on and on about what you can do with this, I should let you in on the lingo…

Designing Your Own Jewelry

Planning and Designing Your Own Jewelry

Before you start creating your own jewelry, planning and designing is important. When you plan, always remember that you have to be organized in all aspects as you go along with your jewelry making. Necessary tools and material are very important; however you don’t just grab those things because you need them. Sometimes we make mistakes by using the wrong materials; an example of this is when we chose the wrong beads and ending up with a mess, a complete waste of time and materials. So, it is very important to chose the right kind of materials you will be using, or rather chose a good quality of materials that will last long without fading.
The most common materials are Handmade Glass Beads, gemstones, and other metal materials that come in different sizes, colors, and varieties. They are the most beautiful materials that make up your jewelry. However, looks can be deceiving. Beads are beautiful tiny pieces, but if you are not wise enough to choose good quality beads, you might end up with faded beads. Gemstones and other metal materials, if carefully looked after, will last many lifetimes, but others do not. Sometimes good quality beads, gemstones, and other metal materials are more expensive to buy, but it really pays when you realize that they can last for a lifetime!
But if you’re planning to make fun and fashionable designs, you can go along with the cheaper materials. Finding out how to source the best wholesale jewelry is best done online through places like eBay.
As beads and other materials come in different sizes, picking the right size for your design is very important as well. You don’t want to choose heavy beads to pull off the design shape of your necklace. Heavy beads can cause tiara tips bending over in your jewelry. Very light beads can look flimsy and won’t go with your desired designed shape.
Making a dramatic design statement usually comes with lots of large beads; in this case you can incorporate hollow metal beads, wood or other light weight materials, which will help you make the finished item from being too heavy to wear. There are many light weight beads that look stunning, Bali silver beads are good example of this.
The purpose of the beads is very necessary if you are designing a special bead effect for your jewelry. Add a dramatic touch which will make a certain bead stand out. Others use organic designs, composed of beads that blend together giving an overall beautiful cohesive impression, therefore choosing beads that are similar in color tone and sizes are very important things to do.
After having completed a number of items, and probably planning on selling them, you can come up with this equation for your pricing: cost of the beads + your time + overheads and other materials. There are many places that you can sell your jewelry; craft shows, home parties and you can learn all about setting up your online jewelry store by searching the internet for ideas.

Car Hire Malaga

 

Malaga in Spain is one of the most popular tourist destinations of the Costa del Sol in southern Spain. Malaga is the gateway to exciting costal resorts and cities like Marbella and Torremolinos along the Costa del Sol. The whole region enjoys a very pleasant climate all year round and has some of the best and most exciting tourist spots in the world. There is simply so much to see and visit here that a car is a must have so that you can enjoy the region in your own time in complete freedom. You can drive away in a hired car right from the airport as almost every car hire company has its desk at the Malaga airport. A car hire in Malaga affords you the best way to get around and get to know this fascinating city.

 

Malaga has it all- wonderful beaches, rich culture and history, magnificent monuments and Malaga is blessed with a wonderful Mediterranean atmosphere where you can spend the holiday relaxing away in its friendly and laid back lifestyle. With its amazing night life, restaurants, and bars, Malaga has always been the forerunners in the list of attractions for the visitors of Spain. And the towns and villages situated around Malaga make for nice day trips with your hired car. Soak in the beautiful countryside of Malaga surrounded with mountains and olive plantations dotted with the typical Andalucian white villages. Malaga is best enjoyed with a car at your disposal so that you don’t have to depend on local transportation.

 

Explore this fantastic city with your own time table and your own exclusive itinerary with easy and affordable car hire.

 

Here are a few things you should remember when you hire a car in Malaga.:

 

Almost all the companies offer car hire services from the airport arrivals. The services are prompt and include most basic services like “meet and greet” at the airport. Book your car online before you arrive, however. The summer months in Malaga are particularly busy and you don’t want to arrive at the airport without a car!! Reserving your car online before ensures that a car of your preference and make is waiting for you at the airport before you arrive. It also ensures that you get the best deal in terms of cost efficiency and personalised facilities.

 

It will well be advisable to do some research while you reserve a car. Almost all the companies on the internet advertise cheap car hire, but watch out for hidden costs or extra charges. Go for companies which have all their services and corresponding charges clearly spelled out on the website. Your car hire should cover breakdown assistance and insurance cover at no extra charges… Some companies have extra charges for an additional driver.

 

How long will you be hiring the car for? Some companies offer a better deal on weekly prices than a 4-5 day car hire. Be sure to ask for discounts if hiring for more than a week’s time. If you’re booking online, read the restrictions carefully.

 

Always be sure to check out your selection of bargains before making any reservations.
Make sure you understand the terms & conditions of your reservation. Is there a penalty for no-shows? Is there a fee for additional drivers and must their names be listed in the contract? Age limit of the second driver (For liability reasons, this is important.)

If pertinent, ask about any restrictions on interstate travel. For your own protection in case of breakdown, be sure the company has offices in all the states/places on your travel itinerary.
For one-way rentals, ask about drop-off charges. They can be very high.

Always get a confirmation number. For airport rentals, be sure to give the customer service representative your flight number and scheduled arrival time. This will help protect your reservation if the flight is delayed.

 

Save by booking early as the prices are low during off-season. Also early reservation will give you the freedom to choose from many available cars. If you wait on until the season picks up, your options start getting very limited.

 

If you are traveling with children, book a child seat in advance as they are charged extra and can be in short supply during peak season. There is a range of cars that companies offer. Reserving early and online helps you in deciding on a car as all the car models and their rates are on display on company websites.
