Many AuctionBytes readers are using a service called Twitter to communicate with their colleagues and share news. If you want to learn how to use Twitter to help your online retail business, read this guide published in the latest issue of EcommerceBytes Insider. You can find me on Twitter under the name AuctionBytes.
The January issue of EcommerceBytes Insider also features an interview with search guru Danny Sullivan of Search Engine Land. I've known Danny since the mid-1990s when I was production editor of a print newsletter for corporate researchers, and so I was delighted to catch up with him and have him share some SEO tips in AuctionBytes' new publication. He has some great advice for online sellers!
You can receive the monthly EcommerceBytes Insider at no charge via email by signing up on the EcommerceBytes home page.
Today's issue of AuctionBytes-Update features an article about new regulation affecting PayPal, eBay and online sellers. The article also tackles PayPal's 21-day hold policy and its practice of running credit checks on some merchants. If you sell online, you won't want to miss it.
Also in today's issue, Greg Holden introduces us to the founder of Babylon Mall, a small niche site designed for buyers and sellers of vintage fashion and accessories. You'll also find our regular features, including First Item Sold Online, Collector's Corner, and the This & That Online Auction Roundup column, all capped off with letters from readers.
If you're waiting to create a merchant listing on EveryPlaceISell.com, wait no more! Google gave our new merchant directory a PageRank of 5, which boosts your website's search results on Google if you have a listing. And read the story of how EveryPlaceISell reunited a shopper with a much-loved retailer in EveryPlaceISell and the Basic Green Box.
Thanks for reading.
