Auction Listing Count - On The Increase!

[greenmasons]

Good Afternoon to all!!

Well its great to see how the site is increasing in the number of products being offered. It wasn't long ago (2 months?) when the auction count when down from 500,000 and we had a drop nearly to the 400,000 count due to a small percent of sellers. Ever since the site has been growing with great speed and we're beyond the 450,000 and marching nicely towards half a million again.

457,332
2784 auction listings up from yesterday
0.61% Increase

And this isn't just an odd one off I've been watching the statistics and at the moment ever day eBid is growing in auction listings faster than any other site. Bar eBay which is going up and down like a yo-yo.

I'm sure Christmas has a lot to do with it, but i'm really pleased to see so many new items being listed on the site at such a fast pace.

I'm sure I'd list more (and faster) if I got off the forums

Are there any stats on sales? I would like to see sales percentages against listings - could be encouraging if it is rising!

Yes a Sales graph would be even better to determine how well the site is doing. But it's very promising to see so many new auctions being listed...More Products + Variety will hopefully result in more buyers!

CMJewels i couldn't agree more! I've been sitting on the forum for far to long waiting for something really exciting to happen. I'm worried that if my house had been on fire i would still be sitting here as it went down around me!

If it helps though...eBay currently has a sell through rate of around 20-30% (I need to start writing down where i read these things!!) so 70% or so of listings are costing 10p - £s and not even selling
