Shops link in UK header

This post was written in July 2007; specific information contained within it may be out of date.

Some long-awaited good news for Shops’ owners this morning: the link to the Shops hub has finally appeared in eBay UK’s page header. I still think there’s a sad lack of awareness amongst buyers that Shops exist, and of what they do, so now’s the time to start pushing your Shop in your listings, and get them into the habit of clicking that lovely new link!

    Yippeee!!!!!!! At last :-)
    eBay.com have got stores in theirs too, but also Motors and Express… wonder why the UK didn’t add them?

    “I still think there’s a sad lack of awareness amongst buyers that Shops exist”
    I’ll second that - there are a huge percentage who dont know how to use them even when every listing blatantly says available in the shop, visit shop etc.

    It’s a small victory but at least it’s something, though unless eBay markets directly to the Shops hub it isn’t going to do much good.

    The answer is so simple. Start marketing shops!

    [...] We were celebrating earlier this week that the Shops’ hub link has been added to the eBay UK header, but it seems the fight to get Shops’ links back where they belong (i.e. in buyers’ faces) isn’t over yet. [...]
