Making the Most of Your eBay About Me Page

Every eBay buyer or seller knows what it is, but they very rarely make the most of this powerful profit generating free resource. There are some things that must be included in your page if you’re really going to profit from it. This article outlines the features that must be included and how to make the most of them.

Firstly, and most importantly, you need to include a sign up form for your newsletter or ezine. Many marketers say that each and every newsletter subscriber is worth approximately $1 per month. If you can accumulate a subscriber base of 100, then that is an easy $100 per month. Your about me page should first include a reason why they should sign up to your newsletter; this could be because you reveal secret tips or techniques or because you will give them free eBooks. After describing the benefits, include your sign up page.

After the sign up page you should link to a product you sell in your eBay shop or on your website. You should like to the higher valued items to achieve greater profits. Using this method should result in a few extra sales per month if you manage to attract the traffic to your about me page. We’ll discuss traffic generation tips later on in this article.

Finally on your about me page you should link to an affiliate product, usually some type of eBook. You should choose a product which is related to the eBay items you sell. For example, if you sell fitness equipment, then you could link to an eBook called “101 Ways to Get Fit and Stay Fit” or something similar. If you make a sale then you earn a commission (normally 50%) for doing virtually nothing.

All of the above is worthless however if no one can get to your page. Many sellers expect eBay buyers to click on the small “Me” icon by your eBay user ID. I’ll tell you know that very few actually do. You need to let them know the benefits of going to your page and you can do this by inserting a link and a short description at the top and the bottom of your eBay listing. Explain that they can get free eBooks or the hottest tips just by visiting your page. Who can resist free eBooks or the hottest tips?

Using the methods outlined above should result in many more subscribers, more website and eBay sales and affiliate commissions and for just an hour’s work. It’s one of the easiest silent sales machines that you can set up and it runs completely on auto-pilot for as long as you leave it.
