Many thousands of people making a living both buying & selling on eBay. Currently
ranked as the 37 biggest site on the net (according to Alexa figures) eBay shows
no signs of slowing down, even fortune 500 companies are opening eBay shops to
sell surplus & unwanted stock. The following are five resources that I use
personally & encourage you to use them to increase your eBay profits with ease.

Reports show that over 90% of searches on eBay are done using the search facility.
What users do not know about eBays search factility is that by default it only
searches the item titles - not the descriptions of the items. Remember this fact
as it will show the significance of some of the resources listed below.

1) WNOB.com

How professional a seller are you? Do you check your listings before submitting
them or even does someone else proof read them for you? With millions of listings
on eBays networks of sites at any one time, a small proportion of these listings
contain errors - & a misspelt word is about the biggest error you can make.

Imagine your selling a Sony Television for example. What if you misspell the
item as Sony Televisoin. Anyone who searches for the term "Sony Television"
simply isn't going to be presented with your item. Only those eBayers who search
manually though the category will find your items. Needless to say that if
people can't find your item, they're unable to bid on them.

WNOB.com is a paid service you can use to find all misspelt variations of a term
in their member area. Why would you need such a service?  Well obviously if an
item has low visibility on eBay it's also likely to have zero or few bids
enabling you to snap yourself up a bargain. I've known people use this service
to make a full time living, purely buying items cheaply and relisting them
without errors.

2) eBay Pulse

Back to the search facility eBay pulse shows you the top 10 searched keywords in
every category. It's a real gem of a service, obviously by looking at the most
widely used search terms you can see what eBayers are after. And if your selling
in this category, by inserting some of these keywords within your title your
items will be seen by more users.

The only thing to watch out with this service is make sure the keywords are
relevant to your item, IF NOT DON'T USE THEM. How many times have you saw listings
such as "SONY PANASONIC LG WIDESCREEN DIGITAL TELEVISION GUIDE", - listings such
as these are well thought out to earn high visibility from the way users search.
Anyone searching for the items with any of the keywords will uncover your
listings.

While it may lead to a high number of views, firstly fellow users will get
annoyed if they find your item completely unrevealed to what they searched for,
Secondly keyword spamming as it is known, is against eBay policy and will lead
to your item being pulled. I use pulse daily with all my listings but make sure
it's relevant to your item first.

3) Keyword-Pro

Keyword-Pro is a commercial subscription service which is similar to eBay pulse.
However, the main difference is Keyword-Pro offers a much more in depth list of
relevant keywords. It lists the top 50 keywords for every category for both
eBay.co.uk & eBay.com. This is a great addition, especially if any of the terms
found in eBay pulse are not relevant to your item.

Keyword-Pro is available as both a web service or as a small program that
downloads the list onto your P.C. It's data is updated weekly to keep you
informed of the latest search terms.

4) Selling Manager

When you first open a selling account on eBay, options listed under the sell tab
of eBay are enough to get you by. However, you can upgrade to a more in depth
service known as Selling Manager. As eBay describes the service "eBay Selling
Manager is our online sales management tool for medium to high volume sellers". 
It allows you to track every eBay sale, customise your feedback comments, print
shipping labels & much more. It saves me about four hours a week tracking orders
and watching sales.

Selling Manager has a small monthly charge of on eBay.com
(after one a month trial free). Once I moved over to Selling Manager, there's
simply no way I would go back.

I hope you find these services useful & time saving in your goal for a successful
home business on eBay. Remember, your most important resource is your time when
your starting or building up an online business & if you discover any site,
person or opportunity that can save you time give it the attention & serious
consideration it deserves. Every top Internet marketers constantly educate
themselves by purchasing & reviewing almost every new product released. The way
I look at it, if an ebook costs $197 and the information within the ebook saves
me this or allows me to make an additional $197 it's well worth it - once you
can do it once you'll be able to repeat the exercise over and over again making
repeated profits.
