How To Suck Up Hungry Customers "New Version"
1. Astronomical Numbers of Customers:
As we saw in our introduction, the traffic is gigantic! eBay alone had revenues of $5 BILLION in 2000 (Consumer Reports, May 2001). A huge portion of this went to attract even more customers. At this moment, eBay has 30 million registered members.
But does this mean that if you put a listing on ebay, that all these millions of people will see it? Of course not. eBay has almost 5,000 categories and most people browse only a few.
But those who look at your category usually have an intense interest. And isnt that exactly what you want? TARGETED traffic?
If you are selling a CD, does it do you any good for Pokemon lovers to be looking at your ad?
How Much Traffic Will I Get?
There is no way of knowing. Some categories get a lot more attention than others. For example, today eBay has a collectibles category with only 40 listings, yet there are 112,375 items in automobile accessories.
Later on, you will learn how to expand your items popularity.
