How to Advertise your Business and Buy From Online Auctions
Do you know eBay?
It’s a good place to advertise your business and buy cheap products at the same time.
To save more money, follow these simple methods:
It’s important you know the highest price you will bid for the product
and stick with it. Don’t get caught up in a bidding war.
If the product’s description or picture isn’t detailed
enough for you, contact the merchant to get more
information before you bid. You don’t want to take a
chance to waste your hard earned money.
Know the value of the product before you bid. If
the product is brand new, check to see what price
retailers are charging for it. If the product is used or
reconditioned, you will want to pay way less than the
retail value.
Know the time the auction begins and ends. You
also want to know how long it will take to ship. If
you need the product by a certain date, you’ll want
to estimate the time it will take to receive it.
You can place a last minute bid. The other bidders
may not be keeping track of when the auction ends
or may not have the time to bid again.
Visit a few online auctions before bidding because
some merchants auction the same product in many
auctions. You usually can purchase the product for
a lower price in a unpopular auction because there
are less bidders.
Know the payment options the merchant accepts
before you bid on their product. If they only accept
checks or money orders, it may take even longer to
get the product because the payment has to clear. If
they accept credit cards make sure they have a secure
server.
Online auctions will, sometimes, allow you to check
the merchants history with their auction. Check to see
if people have complained about the their products or
business practices before you decide to bid.
Know if the merchant offers a warranty or money
back guarantee or before bidding on a product. You
don’t want to get stuck with a product that does not
work or you’re not satisfied with.
You know now how to advertise your business and buy in the best form you can from online auctions.

Jesse, one way you could advertise your eBay auctions elsewhere online for free would be to write some useful, engaging Squidoo lenses where you can add eBay products for sale that relate to what your lens is about. I think the key would be to write interesting lenses that will get some traffic, rather than just throwing something up there.
It probably would also be good to create your own ecommerce site if you haven’t already, where you could link to your eBay auctions.

The first thing you should do is get a domain name. This only costs $10 a year. Then point the domain to your eBay store. Now you can direct traffic to your new domain name and they will end up at your eBay store. As business improves, you can setup a dedicated web site.
The next step is how to get traffic to come to your domain name. The easiest and fastest way to do this is to advertise with Google and Yahoo. This is not free, but it will start to generate traffic immediately. You can also pay related high traffic web site owners to add a link to your domain. This can bring you a steady stream of traffic.
You can try going the free route, but this is extremely time consuming and may not yield the results desired. There are hoards of people spamming the various forums, blogs, and community sites with useless articles that only pump their products. This doesn’t work. Yes, this kind of thing will give you links to help in the search engine rankings, but this is not your primary goal.
For offline advertising, you can try specific trade magazines or national newspapers. However, this approach can be very expensive. You can always print some flyers and stick them on car windshields in front of stores selling the same products you are.
Good Luck,
Bill
