I guess that's the difference between site administrators that build their site from scratch (Yes, even Atomic Bomb) compared to admins who use mods loudly proclaimed as "hacks" to fleece the "sheep" into following the herd with stat cheater "hacks."

MyAuctionPlanet:
"feeds your auctions via Twitter automatically."
eBanza:
"sign up for ebanza.com and we will tweet your auctions for FREE!!!"
Posting every single friggin' auction listing to Twitter (aka spamming and boring the hell out of your followers) is about as (in)effective a marketing technique as the traffic and link exchanges most rinky dink owners also participate it.
A more effective way to use it would be to only post sales, special deals (like Amazon does on their
www.twitter.com/amazondeals Twitter page) or to use it to add a human element to your brand (like Zappos does
www.twitter.com/zappos) .
disclosure: We use it for our TS store similarly to the way Amazon uses it. We post price cuts, deals of the day, etc....we don't post all 17,800 products on the site to Twitter like rinky dinks are fond of doing. :
P.S. If you want advice on using Twitter as a marketing tool for your ecommerce business read GetElastic (or just google 'ecommerce and twitter') not PSU...

Ignoring Sneaky's posts (as usual) and continuing where I left off about promoting your store...
Maybe she and her fellow rinky dink owners aren't the best ones to listen to about where to list your store either:

I think they have localized home pages.
The version you're seeing in Seattle is different than the Bay area home page. Both versions remind me of how Plunderhere's home page usually looks.

Plunderhere will now charge a $5 annual verification fee for the opportunity to rub elbows with racist Nazis and counterfeiters.
Marktard email Wrote:Hi all,
would just like to let you know there are some changes happening here. As most of you know sellers are required to be verified but as of yet it has only been an online verification. We are going to be implementing phone verification soon and if you havent added your phone number to your profile please do so now. You can do this by logging into your Members area > My Account > Personal Info and adding it there. You may also wish to upload an avatar to let your buyers know a little more about you.
Other changes to being verified will be that it is now $5 and will be a recurring yearly fee, but in all honesty this is a very nice price to be able to list and sell unlimited items for free as long as they are under $2000, only a 1% listing fee for items priced from $2000 - $9999 and a flat rate for items over $10,000.
If you have any questions or concerns please do not reply to this email. I may be contacted at the email address site@plunderhere.com
Marktard announcement Wrote:Please add a Phone Number
Buying and selling online shouldn't be scaryand you don't have time to be a private detective and track down your sellers contact information before making a purchase!
We will begin verifying all newly Verified Accounts with a phone call in order to provide the safest site we can to both our buyers and sellers. Most calls will occur within 72 hours from verification.
