The fees on eBay are somewhat more “forgiving” – You don’t pay per click, rather “per sale” (except insertion fees which are mostly negligible compared to final value fees). On all of these marketing channels we had to meticulously track our costs as we paid “per click”. Since no one knew the store existed we had to invest funds to bring traffic to the store, so we advertised the web-store on Google and Facebook. With the new eBay seller hub, measuring the key metrics becomes easy and accessible to every seller.Īs eBay sellers, we’re basically paying eBay for “marketing” – eBay does the job of bringing shoppers to our listings and in turn we pay eBay fees.Īfter establishing our eBay business we decided to open our own web-store. Measuring becomes easy (thanks eBay seller hub)īack in the day, we had to use 3rd party solutions and do a lot of manual work to track most of our eBay business critical metrics.īy methodically testing different designs and measuring the effects on our metrics, we were able to increase our eBay sales by 220%. If your conversion rate is negatively affected by adding “red flowers all over your listings”, get rid of them and carry on to the next design test. maybe it won’t – But you want to eliminate the guessing part and be driven by hardcore data only. and click "ok got it" for you.If Philip had not measured the effect of his design changes – he wouldn’t have been able to achieve the eventual uplift of his sales, he would have simply been guessing, poking in the dark.īy measuring data, we are able to eliminate human bias – “I really love the color red, I should add red flowers all over my listings” – Maybe it will increase your sales.

Firefox 52 worked for me while IIRC, Firefox 31 and 3.6.24 could not dismiss the dialog, and Safari appears to have problems according to others) Still might be an option for those of you who have a friend or relative who doesn't use eBay and or isn't worried about account linking issues who could perform that task for you using their own internet connection (assuming they aren't using a browser that fails with that task. Even though I'd have no problem doing this for other users, I don't want to open up the can of worms that would involve with my accounts being linked to others in eBay's systems. The problem with that is eBay's linking of accounts by IP and other criteria. That approach is something I pondered recently: assuming another user who has no problem dismissing the dialog themselves was trustworthy enough, that user could log into your account, pull up the offending page, dismiss the dialog for you, and you could change your account password after that to lock things down again if desired. ![]() I suspect the CS rep just pulled the page up on their console, and dismissed the popup modal dialog the same way you would if you were using a desktop browser where dismissing it works (and from what we have observed, dismissing it once is enough to permanently make it stay gone - appears something gets toggled in the account that prevents its reappearance).

(I don't have an Ipad.)īookmark a page in your browser (doesn't matter what page), copy the script in berserkerplanet's post, paste it into the place in the bookmark where the address goes, remove the "X" from javaXscript, save the bookmark. ![]() It's probably easier to do this on a desktop than on an Ipad. ![]() If not, berserkerplanet came up with a javascript tool that will close one of those popup boxes that gets stuck - see here: You can open that page in Firefox, even on another computer, you should be able to close that popup and banish it from your account forever. ![]()
