Relisting Strategies: Doing Better Next Time...

Did your auction do a flop on you? No bids, nothing? You can still relist for free but you need to answer the question...

What went wrong? Was the auction over-priced? Was it in the wrong category? Do I need a better headline? Description? Or was it that no one wanted to buy your product in the first place.

When you relist, change things up a little.

Consider changing one or more of the following listing variables:

What category you choose

How you word your title

Your reputation/feedback

How you describe your item

Starting bid price

Timing

Photos/pictures

Listing Features like featured ads, etc

Try to pinpoint what went wrong- then relist and see what your results are... thank goodness for testing.


If you test well, you will eventually make money selling on ebay.
