My post on Best things to Sell on eBay will show you how to choose the hottest selling items on eBay right now.

Make Money on eBay

Getting Started.  To begin to make money on eBay , you must first log in to your eBay account and then click on the  ”sell” button which is found at the top of your screen.  eBAY will then ask you what type of service you would like, choose the first one which is “sell item at an online auction”.  Next, you will have to choose the category that you item falls into.  Just follow the simple instructions and you will be able to find the right category.  On the next screen you will start to enter in important information about your item.

Title:  This is the most important thing for you to focus on as a seller.  Since most people will reach your item through a search, make sure that your item  title is spelt correctly that that it is appropriate to your item.

Description: Here is where you can write as much about your item as you think someone who is bidding on it would like to know.  Also make sure to let your buyers know how much it will cost to ship the item and what types of payments you accept.  eBAY provides some simple tools allowing you to change your font.  We recommend you use these tools to make your description clearer, however, you don’t want to spend too much time with the formatting.  There are many seller who use expensive programs to list their items and make them look very good.  This is not something you need to worry about at this stage.

Dates an prices:  Now for the fun part.  You will get to choose how long your auction will last for and how much you are willing to sell it for.  It will also let you set a reserve price.  A reserve price is the price which is the absolutely minimum you are willing to let your item sell for.  You should avoid using this and the buy it now feature until you are comfortable with the selling process.

Once you are satisfied with all the details of your auction, eBAY will automatically list it for you.  Please note that eBAY charges a small fee to list your auction.  They also charge you another fee when your auction successfully ends.   Read more here – How to Sell on eBay – 5 Steps for New Sellers
