AuctionBytes is surveying online sellers to take a snapshot of the state of the online-auction industry. The results will be published in a future issue of AuctionBytes-Update. We first conducted this survey in September of 2006 and again in March 2007.
The survey takes a look at where online-auction sellers are currently listing products for sale, whether they have their own ecommerce website or Storefronts, and how significant their own sites are overall. We'll analyze the survey results, and then we'll compare them to results collected in March.
The survey takes a few minutes to complete (we've shortened it) and is restricted to online sellers. You can complete the survey online at:
