So category by category I am going back through and editing my listings and looking at these key points [URL removed]
*Price comparing using Google shopping and eBay.
*Ending my prices with either .95 or .50 so as to be consistent.
*Checking for grammar and spelling.
*Filling up my titles to the max the best I can while keeping pertinent keywords at the forefront.
*Fine-tuning my descriptions.
Man did these listings I’ve done so far need it. In looking at these now, I definitely was not putting my best foot forward. Hoping this will pay off and feel that it will at least somewhat and definitely cannot hurt.
Funny how when I first saved each listing I thought I did fine at the time.
Sharing this as a reminder that there can be room for improvement when taking a second-deeper look.
What started this is a forum that I am a part of. Last year some of us sellers set ourselves up with some goals for our stores/booths at the beginning of the New Year and we did the same for this year. If anyone is interested in joining on the New Year goal thread it is at www.esellerscafe.boards.net and the thread is titled as Let’s Get Motivated! What’s on your to do list? (hope it is okay to post the link).

Special [URL removed] Don’t forget that the title usage is as [URL removed]
*First 60 spaces of our titles are used by Google shopping.
*For Google organic (www.google.com) I’m no longer seeing a definite number of spaces used and instead I’m seeing mixed information on how much spacing in our titles they are using (best practices is to put pertinent information at the forefront of our titles).
*Bonanza, thankfully, uses all 80 spaces in our titles.

It’s a good reminder, Sharon
I don’t constantly edit my listings, but I do take a serious look, and update them as I look at them for other reasons.
You’re right though, it is funny how out perception changes over time. A listing we think is great to start, no longer is.

Hi [URL removed] One way that I am editing now is when I transfer listings to another booth. I’m re-designing Embellishmart and most of those products need to be moved to Paper Nirvana and Artsy Craftery Studio. Boy do they need that tweaking! This is to quote someone above.
Recently did research about ending prices with .95, .97, .98, .99. I have resisted in the past, preferring to list prices as they are, ending in .00 mostly. The psychological info is sound, involving more about what people are comfortable with, rather than deceiving shoppers as I thought. Didn’t think it was fair to lead shoppers to believe that a product is $10 when it’s actually $11 ($10.99). It is interesting to learn what people think when observing $10.99 versus $11.00. Here’s one article that I read at FastCompany.com The Psychology Behind The Sweet Spots Of Pricing

I had to live with bullying and when I needed it, it’s a good thing I went to a specialist. And it was convenient not to go anywhere, even to get a consultation on the therapy that you needed. It helped me save a lot of time and receive real professional assistance. That’s why I’m happy personally that I studied [URL removed] on the phone and I already knew what it was. So I passed a difficult time with dignity.
