Part 2 - Including photos in your listings.
============================

To achieve any degree of success as a seller on eBay you'll need to include a picture of the item that you're selling.  Buyers are drawn to those listings that have a good, clear photo of the item. When you're taking a picture of the item there are some basic guidelines that you should follow to make the most of this photo opportunity:

·  Make sure that the lighting is good so that you get pictures that are clear and natural.  If you're taking a picture outside make sure to       use a flash if you need to increase the brightness of the picture.
·  Use a backdrop of some kind for smaller items.  Try to avoid using a white backdrop as this put too much contrast into the picture.  
·  Remove other objects from the picture that have no relevance to the item that you're selling.  
·  Get as close as you can without losing focus.  
·  Take pictures of sections of the item that you're selling so that buyers can see all sides.
·  Take pictures of any distinguishing marks on the item, such as manufacturer stamps on the bottoms of vases.
  
After you've taken the picture eBay will walk you through the process of uploading the photo to your listing page.   When you download the “EBay Picture Services Application” it will be easy for you to manage and upload all your pictures. You want to develop a design for your online business that is going to enhance your business image and that will add strength to your Internet presence on eBay.  This strategy is vital to the success of your business.  Your goal should be to develop a design for your business that you can use in all areas of promoting your online website:  advertising through your eBay description, creating strong titles, and including great pictures with your listings.  You want to create a business design that will be remembered and recognized by your eBay customers, and that builds trust and reliability in your business as well as consistency.

Next time we'll be discussing a little about "Ebay storefronts".
