Increase Sales with Trust Seals

Great way to build credibility is to get verified as a Trusted Site

What is the TRUST eSEAL Program?
The Merchant-SAFE TRUST eSEAL program is designed to improve TRUST among website visitors while they are making a buying decision on your website. The Merchant-SAFE seal is a low cost alternative to the Hacker SAFE, COMODO and other TRUST seal programs and is ideal for the small and medium businesses and independent contractors.

What does a TRUST SEAL do? The answer is quite simple. A third party seal improves consumer confidence and increases the conversion rate of your website.

Started up My Own Stores

Haven’t done much on ebay recently. The new rules giving buyers 45 days to return really hurt. Started my own stores one at Another Time 2 Go, an Antique & Collectibles Store and the other is a site that sells the revolutionary new Electronic Cigarettes. They helped me stop smoking when nothing else worked and they are an incredible life saver. You can see them at The Vapor Shack

I’m looking for another good payment option. Paypal is just greedbay all over again. If anyone has any suggestions, please comment

Auctiva Alternative for Images

I have been a member of SellersArena for quite some time now and I love it there. I have a store, I have friends, a blog, an arcade to play in and well I could go on and on. Auctiva messed up a bunch of us and people are looking for image hosting….Guess what… SellersArena has some great Image Hosting and a free plan to boot that is way better than Auctiva. Visit SellersArena and tell them AnotherTime sent you. I know you’ll love it.

Auctiva update

Well, I hung around Auctiva waiting for them to offer a flat rate that was affordable but that just wasn’t happening. The plans are very confusing and if you go to cancel Auctiva they will offer a $10 per month plan that still seems to have strings attached. Sellersourcebook has been great and they have a tool that gets my images from the Auctiva listings. Support is fast and great. They host my images too. I found a new home and can stop feeling jerked around by Auctiva. It was great while it lasted but I’m happy I left. Check out

Auctiva No Longer Free

Well, it seems that Feebay has done it again. They recently cut Auctiva’s throat by cutting the affiliate monies they had been prospering on and so ending 4 years of trouble filled free service. The forums are full of all the ruckus surrounding Auctivas’ announcement. Seems they really didn’t think the fee structure through carefully and they also felt they were entitled to FVF in addition to the other fees. People are jumping ship left and right. Auctiva has behaved poorly in public forums. The arrogant defenses and the trashing of competitors has not gone unnoticed by even its’ staunchest cheerleaders. I know becuase I was one of them. This is a huge disappointment for me but I found a space that has great support and everything I need to get my work done. Visit Seller Sourcebook –Great listing Tools

This was the actual statement by ebay that they reversed. And according to the eBay Purchase Protection Policy page, if a buyer believes an item is not authentic: “When buyers file a claim alleging that the item is not authentic, we require the buyer to destroy the item. Once a buyer confirms destruction of the item, we will reimburse the buyer or provide an eBay coupon”. Can’t figure out what they are trying to do other than push us out.

Feebay never ceases to surprise me. They put out a policy change where Buyers would be asked to destroy items they thought were fake or not authentic instead of returning to seller as SNAD. Another Joke… They did rescind this shortly after putting it in place.. Guess the heat on that decision was too hot for them.

Ebay has done it again.. added even more reasons to get out. Will be implementing a new policy where the buyer has 45 days to return item. What a joke!!! And of course they are starting a new fee structure in June that appears to be targeting the little guy again. Time to get out on your own. I’m moving to http://sellersarena.com

Things at SellerArena are getting exciting.. They have everything that a seller needs to succeed and soon will be launching Premium stores for us to sell out of.. Cant wait.. Go check them out at http://sellersarena.com

SellersArena promotes OnlinesellersUnited

At SellersArena I learned of yet another place where sellers can meet and discuss just about anything. So far I am impressed with their setup and what seems like an open-minded space to get help. Visit Online Sellers United to check it out.

Joined http://Plumdrop.com. Added the http://www.feedburner.com link and still searching for great ways to promote my alternative venues. If you go to http://www.mybloglog.com/buzz/members/AnotherTime/ you can see how I’m promoting a variety of venues. All this adds relevance to my sites and helps drive traffic.

Check out Remembering Another Time

I want you to take a look at: Remembering Another Time

Best Site to Promote

Just found this unbelievable site for creating galleries of all your selling venues. This site’s owner is a genius. Go there NOW http://Listing-Gallery.com

Still the best place to get SEO help with any listing or store is at http://sellersarena.com. I have my website http://anothertime2go.com there and a store under AnotherTime and various links in the directory. They are showing up on searches so it works. So many other places have proven to be a waste of time and not at all helpful.

Bonanzle is changing. The forums there are getting vicious .. a lot like feebay. Nice place though. Free to list your items but I haven’t had much luck with sales there. Unfortunetly Feebay is still the main space I sell at. Wish that would change.

Just a reminder. The only place that I have been promoting on that actually has shown some results is at SellersArena. I consistantly have my links, my products,all my venues and posts show up on google because this space has the best SEO practices. This is the best place I have found to promote myself. Check it out
