Why views my bench dropped to 0 in a day?. On eBay I have the same range and sell every day,bonanza I don’t sell anything. How to deal with you, if you don’t provide the views for my products? I am very unhappy with your site

Buyers go to ebay and amazon to look for items..

Buyers come to bonanza because they find the items in google search and cannot find what they are looking for elsewhere or are looking for a less expensive option….sooo…

If the items are found elsewhere, then there is no reason to do a google search, therefore no views…

Bonanza does not provide your viewers, you do, by advertising or using google SEO tools…and giving buyers a reason to look elsewhere…

100% agree with ccmom. Also, lower your prices a bit on bonanza, even a few cents sometimes will bring a customer over from ebay or amazon. I know, I was told once by a customer that my item being .50 cents lower made him buy it from me. I see so many sellers on here with their prices higher.

I don’t really agree with the above seller. If that is the theory, then know one would go to other sites to sell there wares.

Bonanza’s U.S. site rank is 1,521. Which is good. They are suppose to have 5,500,000 unique visitors a day. They will do the advertising for you if you sign up for one of the promotional levels. So it should work, but it does not. Why? I have no idea, but I believe they have a lot of technical issues right now to work out.

The purpose of going to Etsy, Bonanza, Ebay or Artfire, for any seller is the built-in traffic. Or no one would join and they would build there own sites. Unfortunately all these sites got lazy and want sellers to drive traffic for them, to them. Ebay is the only one that that does not. It really has the traffic any seller would want.

This site is not well known is one problem. It also lacks social media tools.

the original premise for bonz was to provide an alternative place to list items..nothing more and for 6 years we built our own following, for 2 years we submitted our own feeds, it is only recently that advertising and all the other stuff was added..Originally not meant to drive own traffic.

Did not get lazy..they never meant to be anything different

and yes, I came here because, it originally offered independence from the rules and hoops of other sites..though now it is starting to just be a clone site, unfornately

Honestly, my items here get more views than on ebay. Lately I have had more sales here than ebay. Views here range from 1-6 views per day, Ebay I have a couple items maybe up to 10 views, most lower. Sales are bad everyplace.

been doing better here than on my own site also..and that is not by much..google’s May updates charging top dollar for good keyword ad clicks has totally destroyed all of my rankings…

hi, you have to pay for the advertising to get your product searchable to get your product sell on here.
