Setting up an eBay business is a very easy process, which makes it one of the easiest businesses to get into. If you have an eBay account and a Paypal account, all you need to do is start setting up listings and selling your products. It is also beneficial to take pictures of the products you are selling. Once your products grow in popularity, you will find that it is very easy to sell your products on eBay. As your business becomes more profitable, you can then roll your profits into making more listings. After you start making multiple listings, however, you might want to consider starting up an eBay store.



eBay says you should thonk about opening a basic store if you sell more than $100 of product per month through eBay. Their basic store is just $16 per month, and you get the basic features. If your business keeps growing, you can upgrade to the other types of store.

With the basic package, however, you can still enjoy a number of attractive benefits and features. You will also get a store home page, which provides you with an unlimited amount of pages to help you list your products.

The benefits you enjoy will increase as you move up in store levels. For example, you will gain the ability to customize your pages and you will receive more pages when you reach higher levels. You will also receive access to Selling Manager Pro when you reach higher levels. This feature is an expanded version of the Selling Manager you receive at the lower levels.

When you have an eBay store, you'll sometimes appear on the "Shop eBay Stores"section of the search results. It doesn't happen that often with a basic store but it will still get you some exposure. As you advance through the levels, you'll find your store is featured more often. When you get to the higher levels you'll also get advanced traffic reporting and market research. If you're selling lots of products you need to consider an eBay store!
