If you think my information is helpful, please don't forget to click on "YES" button at the bottom of the guide, to tell me that you got something out of it, thank you.

So you've got a stash that you either found or have for some reason. You want to sell it and reap your rewards! But you list, and, well, nothing. No bids, and hardly even any visitors! What did you do wrong! Why is it only you that can't sell this widget?

Before you can get a bid, you have to get someone in, as a visitor: how?

Well, what is it that makes YOU go to an auction? Something catches your eye and makes it different than the other 1000 people selling the same thing! Where? THE TITLE!

Look at your title and get as many search words in there as you can! NOT words, SEARCH words! These are things that buyers are going to be putting into that search bar on the homepage of eBay and hitting search! Now really think! Use your head. If you were a buyer, what is it that you would be putting in as search words?

Let's take an example: say....diamond ring. You found a great diamond ring at an estate sale and you want to list it! Look at it....what is it that makes it unique from others, different in some way from the next guys diamond ring. Don't say UNIQUE DIAMOND RING SIZE 7. UNIQUE to you may be a positive thing, but UNIQUE to someone else (a bidder hopefully) may mean uniquely different and ugly. So Unique does not always mean the same thing to different people. Does it have scallops? Are the diamonds good size and quality? Let's say you have a diamond ring of decent quality and something unique like scalloping. Not everyone will use the word scallop. They may use Scalloping, scallops, scalloped, etc. Try at least two of them. You have to save room for other search words. Say: SCALLOPED SCALLOPS DIAMOND RING. But we're not done!

It's a ring, right? So you HAVE to put RING in the title. But, there are a lot of buyers that don't use the word RING they might say: BAND. So, SCALLOPED SCALLOPS DIAMOND RING BAND. Or: SCALLOPED BAND SCALLOPS DIAMOND RING. Doesn't matter if it makes total sense, your aiming for buyers, not the award on grammatically correct titles! People don't go in and do searches on BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND RING WITH SCALLOPED EDGES . It just doesn't happen!

Ok, now you've got diamonds. What is a small diamond to you, may be huge to someone else! So unless there is just NO WAY that your diamonds can pass as large, get it in there! You just are trying to get them in, right? Leave the descriptions, to the description! In your description is where you go into the exact size and weight, etc.

Now, it's made out of gold, right? Put it in there. 10k is a search term, but more importantly, 10k white gold, or 10k yellow gold- no abbreviations here, is gonna get you many more visitors.

and get that size in there if you can. eBay doesn't allow us but 55 characters to use, so use every single one you can. I spend at least a minimum of 20 minutes on my titles! Don't think it's worth it, wait till the money is in your account. You'll think, "Yeah, that was 20 mins. well spent!" So let's see where we are: SCALLOPED BAND SCALLOPS LARGE DIAMOND RING SZ.7 or SCALLOPED BAND SCALLOPS DIAMOND RING 7 LARGE, if you can't get the size or sz. in there, 7 will do just fine. It will pull up!

The final word is, you want to get as original in your descriptive title, without using words that aren't really relavant to the search. UNIQUE, BEAUTIFUL, GORGEOUS, ATTRACTIVE, MUST SEE, GREAT CONDITION, ETC, although descriptive, Don't really do anything to aid in a buyer's search. What makes it unique? What makes it beautiful? Use THAT as your wording.

It may not sell, but you'll have a better chance at it! Good luck and happy eBaying!
