In the Internet Marketing field we ALL take the mick out of marketers that sell information products on Ebay. I know I used to regularly be the victim of those jokes. We have always believed the same that Ebay makes your product look cheap and tacky and completely looses its value. After all how many cheap e-books are sold on Ebay for less than £2.00.

There are far too many to go into great detail about – you could probably do a search on Ebay and find way over 1,000 different ones.

Before I carry on I used to be one of them until the autumn of 2005 when I realised that the Ebay fees were simply too much of an annoying outgoing.

I used to find niches on Ebay that everyone else was oblivious to and I was one of the first to sell products for a penny on Ebay but it was all about Internet Marketing.

When I sold an E-Book for a penny I could VERY easily sell over 1,000 a week and it was my starting point for building up my mailing list. When I sent out the customers order via email download I would offer them some extra products for free in exchange for opting in. In general one in five would join up (20%) and many are still on my list today.

The penny auction was also rather popular with sellers too! When you join Ebay as a seller it doesn’t look good that you have zero feedback so sellers would buy about 10 different products from the low auctions and use the feedback from those sales to get them a good reputation.

One of my other gems was selling the Cabbage Soup Diet and at £6.99 a go I was laughing even though now it is over done at the usual £1.99. I’m just using this as an example there are many, many more niches to be had on Ebay its just a case of secretly looking for them just like I have.

Let’s get on to the best bit!

Ebay trying to cut down on the large quantity of information products sold on Ebay recently banned automatic download for their sellers. The way the sellers have got around this is by selling the downloadable media on CD or DVD instead. But we all know the amount of content that we can place on a CD these days is it really worth it!

After all why sell a copy of a Police Auction guide on a CD on its own?

What would the environmental Secretary have to say about it?

Well there are an awful amount of Ebayers selling just that right now on Ebay. What if you could go to them and offer them a solution.

I have personally been contacting sellers for weeks now offering them the opportunity to cash in on it. Say you have your own viral e-book or report that you can offer for free in exchange to fantastic exposure back to you. You see every time a new person buys off Ebay they will also receive your new product on the same CD and when they read they then go on to either visit your website or join your mailing list.

Now that is a result!

I don’t have a sellers account anymore as I don’t need one all I do is buy things from Ebay for personal use. I also have a fantastic about me page with links to my websites and affiliate links. I regularly contact ten different Ebayers a week and offer my products for free in exchange to feature on their CD.

The best bit is they always say YES!

They are always thankful and can’t believe they are getting up to date content to their customers for free after all many are selling E-Books that are four years old!

In affect this is completely free advertising or selling of your products without having to list anything or pay any sellers fees – what more could you want?

This loophole though isn’t going to be available forever sellers are soon going to get wise and start selling space on their discs and who could blame them – if I was selling on Ebay I would.

So any sellers reading this that sell on Ebay – why don’t you sell space on your discs via Internet Marketing Forums or your About Me Page after all it is FREE advertising and you have nothing to loose.

What if you sold 10 spaces a week on the grounds that it would be included in 50 CDs at £30 a go that would earn you an extra £300 per week for doing nothing!

Also think about the wonderful feedback you will receive for their “bonus e-books” it would be amazing!

Think about the difference it could make either as the seller or the E-Book owner!

I have a fantastic pack of two E-books where I write about my ideas surrounding Ebay and ways to discover your own niche. It also comes with help on Ebay issues. The best bit is that it comes with Master Resale Rights. Click Here For Details
