The King of eBay

Learning how to make money on the internet is problematic for many people. You may well be one of them. The internet certainly offers unprecedented opportunity. However, it does so against a backdrop of increasing competition. Let me explain...

Suppose you had a invented a fabulous product. Your thinking is that the best and quickest way to get it out to market would be to sell it directly off a website. And so you begin the long educational trail that leads you to the eventual creation of your baby - your website.

Now, you can sit back and watch the orders pile in.

Or at least, that's the idea.

The problem is that in all your enthusiasm, you'd forgotten one small fact. And that one point of detail is going to render your project dead in the water. You see, there's not a single person with internet access who has ever heard of your website. In order to get anyone to view your website, you somehow have to generate traffic to it.

And so you begin that long educational trail that leads you to the eventual creation of a traffic gaining strategy.

Now, you can sit back and watch the orders pile in.

Or at least, that's the idea.

The problem is that in all your enthusiasm, you'd forgotten one huge detail. And that is you are competing with around 2 billion other websites for traffic! What you're attempting to do in creating and selling from new website is one of the hardest tasks you can undertake.

But all is not lost. I have a solution for you. When you hear it you'll probably think it's not relevant, or it's too gross, or you're not going to stoop to that level, or something similar to those sentiments. But please, hear me out...

What you should do with your new product, is sell it on eBay.

Why would I suggest that? Well, the main reason is money - your money. And the second reason is time - your time.

You may not become the King of eBay, but you can have your product up and for sale on eBay literally within a few minutes. You can have sold some of your products, collected the money and shipped the products within a few days. And all without learning how to create a website or how to drive traffic to it.

The reason this strategy works is that putting items for sale on eBay is as simple as completing an onscreen form.

And then, eBay's secret weapon kicks in to work magically for you. You can't stop this secret weapon, even if you wanted to. The secret weapon that eBay gives you is traffic. As much as you can handle.

eBay gets billions of visitors each month, all looking to buy items. Your only task is to get your tiny percentage of eBay's traffic to see your product on eBay. And there is a host of free material available on the internet to show you how to make eBay work for you.

I ask you, where is the logic in trying to make money by setting up a website from scratch and then in attempting to attract visitors in competition with billions of other websites?

Take the eBay route. You'll be in business faster, longer and richer!
