Sellers, always use the maximum amount of characters in your title box to maximize the search words related to the item you're selling.

Let's say you're selling movies. Words like "action" or "romantic comedy" are superb words that will make your item appear in a plethora eBay searches.

Also, buyers also search movies by the names of the actors starring in the films.  If you are at a loss for the right search words to insert,  add some star power to your listing!  Leading actors' names can pull in searches in for your movie.

Note that adding irrelevant words with more search power is against eBay's rules.  In olden times (5 years ago) an occasional wise guy would list a movie like this: "Old Yeller DVD - Not Paris Hilton".  Now, eBay prohibits trying to cash in on top internet click words, if they're not relevant.

You can also add words that are related to your film's plot like "....sports drama" or "...movie about racial relations".  These will also pique the public's interest, as they browse through a sea of movie titles.

With music items,  we try to add the genre of music after the artist's name and the album title ..."country CD", ..."rap cassette"..."jazz CD" and so on.

Some people browse the latest jazz items on eBay by simply entering vague search terms like "jazz CD".  If you are offering a "Miles Davis All Blue Jazz CD" as your title, your CD should show up in their"Jazz CD"  searches.
