Link to Your Own Website

UFO Extraterrestrials

If you are selling on eBay there is a good chance that you are also selling on your own website. The majority of my online sales go through eBay right now, even though I’ve had a website up since I started selling online. I’m just starting to get to the finer details of SEO so my website is not found real easily through the SERPs. Chances are you may be in the same boat as well. Why not bypass eBay all together and link directly to the products on your own site through Squidoo.

I started doing this sometime last year with my UFO Extraterrestrials lens and it has worked well for me. Squidoo is the #1 referrer to The Software Castle right after Google. So, even though Google is not picking up my product pages in the dog eat dog world of online sales, it is picking up my Squidoo lenses. I also offer products from other sellers on lenses like this for a couple of reasons:

  1. I’m not the biggest guy on the block so I understand why customers may not want to purchase from me.
  2. I may not have the cheapest price on a game.
  3. If they are not going to purchase the game from me then I may as well earn a commission from the sale.

Do you currently link to the products on your own website? If not, why?
