It’s best to get a head-start by seeking out eBay store designs companies that offer both full store designs along with eBay store templates so you can jump in and start listing your products.
Gaining an Edge
Many sellers on eBay miss the mark because they aren’t offering things like a “search the store” tool, unique and attractive designs, PayPal certified logos, live chat and above all professionalism. eBay buyers are smart these days and are skipping brick and mortar stores and instead, opting to purchase from trusted eBay sellers.

Spotting a Non-Producing Store
If you browse eBay stores there are a few ways to spot how well the store is doing including:
Visitors – If store listings have a “number of visitors” counter that is low, it probably isn’t selling as much as an eBay store designed for optimal sales because it may lack a marketable presence.
Poor Categorization – If you sell watches and jewelry for example, if a potential buyer has to search all of your listings instead of being able to use a tight and easy-to-use menu sidebar of individual categories or brands, expect these buyers to seek out stores that do offer this element.
Marketing – All the eBay store designs and eBay template designs we offer include the must-haves but as the owner of the store, it’s up to you to find the very best ways to market your store. Although our expert designs can get you going, you need to optimize your listings with great SEO (search engine optimization) using the right keywords. You can find the right keywords by visiting eBay labs and entering your item name to find competitive keywords or use Google Adwords to find strong keywords to guide buyers to your website.
Poor Images – It’s a good idea to review your images and enlarge all of them to ensure even the tiny details can be seen by the buyer. If images are not of high quality, buyers won’t bid or hit the “buy it now” button.
Bad Response Time – All eBay stores offer a venue for potential buyers to contact the seller. If you don’t respond to these questions quickly, because there are so many eBay stores, you’ll lose out to a competitor who is on top of answering queries.
