Recent google shopping changes have made things harder even for well established booth…and it takes way more time to become established enough to be higher than ebay/amazon in search results

just log out and put things in cart…just do not finalize the checkout…if you want to see how it works

Hi! Welcome jida111,
There are 20 items in your booth. As an example, I googled your “Shelley China cup and saucer”. The set appeared on the picture list. When you first download an item it is not seen right away as it takes time to populate to the different platforms which you have set. You may check “views” by clicking on “Selling” up top on the left and click on “view stats”. There are lists and graphs to see how many views as well as purchases for when the time comes.

Hope this information is helpful.

Good luck!

I had the same impression one day, it was getting kinda dead, no sales at all. Double checked my paypal account email and Amazon payments and everything was looking good. Eventually I got another sale. A third of my sales come from Amazon Payments. Adding that option might get you more sales. I had turbo traffic for like 4 days and got tons of views and no sales. In the long run, with basic advertising I was selling stuff.
You can have tons of views but remember the rest is up to you to have good listings and competitive prices. And by the way, when possible, I highly recommend using white backgrounds on your listings. GOOD LUCK!

thanks!! your post is helpful, good info!

I might also suggest..filling out profile, not using a generic avatar and banner…give your booth a name…as it stands it looks like someone who really not serious about setting up a business….

and to actually establish a google presence it will take more than a handful of items..

Good Luck and Welcome to Bonz
