To promote our Stores through search engines, eBay uses keywords and meta tags. Did you know that by DEFAULT your keywords come from your Secondary Categories in your store? You might be surprised to find when you click on your store and place your courser over the tab in your browser just what it says! I know I was! This is HOW people find you through the search engines on the Internet???
This can and should be manually changed within your Store Manager. Make the most of your KEYWORDS! Go to MANAGE MY STORE and look for SEARCH ENGINE KEYWORDS in the left nav bar. When you click on it you will see the 6 Secondary Keywords that eBay has selected for you...LOL You can simply change the Keywords. You can use up to 60 characters for each Keyword line. Start with your top Store Category. The first 4 Keywords are what writes your meta tag. So be sure to use your Keywords to your advantage! Your meta tag will read like below...
Buy YOUR #1 KEYWORD and YOUR #2 KEYWORD items from YOUR STORE NAME WILL BE HERE eBay Store. We also sell YOUR #3 KEYWORD, YOUR #4 KEYWORD items on eBay
BTW...it can take up to 30 days or longer for the search engines to update this information! So there is no better time to look at this in your Store than NOW! Before you do that, please, take a few extra seconds and VOTE on my Guide! Thanks, Kali
