In general, they\u2019re very effective for a short boost in sales. However, an <strong>effective long-term advertising strategy<\/strong> is a completely different thing.

For example, do you want to drive more sales or improve brand awareness?<\/li>\n<li>Select the right products to advertise. Your most popular products along with competitive prices have the biggest potential for sales conversions.<\/li>\n<li>Create clear, concise and persuasive product pages. Include accurate and descriptive titles, keywords, useful and relevant product information and high-quality images.<\/li>\n<li>Plan, act and test what works &amp; what doesn\u2019t.<\/li>\n<li>Track your progress and measure relevant metrics. Optimize your listings accordingly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/webinterpret.com\/en\/blog\/ecommerce-advertising-ebay-amazon-expert-interview\">well-thought-out advertising strategy<\/a> is a must. Unfortunately, many sellers aren\u2019t familiar with the so-called rules of the game or find it too time-consuming to understand how advertising on eBay really works. This way they can lose both paid and organic traffic.<\/p>\n<h3>How to invest in eBay Promoted Listings?<\/h3>\n<p>Ad investment involves serious and strategic allocation of funds. There are many questions that are not always easy to answer, for example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What ad rate should I choose to get the best possible ROI?<\/li>\n<li>How to bid?<\/li>\n<li>Is the rate recommended by eBay the optimal choice for me? How about lower rates?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To find answers to such questions, Webinterpret conducted <a href=\"https:\/\/webinterpret.com\/en\/blog\/ebay-promoted-listings-ad-rates\">a series of experiments in 2019 &amp; 2020<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The subject of the analysis was the relationship between <strong>ad expenses (ad rate) and sales increase<\/strong> and its impact on Promoted Listings\u2019 bidding strategy. In the experiments, we analyzed the performance of Promoted Listings on international eBay markets.<\/p>\n<p>Our tests showed that with ad rates recommended by eBay, Promoted Listings can cost you 2-3 times more while not bringing additional revenue.<\/p>\n<h3>How to set up eBay Promoted Listings Standard?<\/h3>\n<p>To set up Promoted Listings Standard, create ad campaigns through Seller Hub or API. Indicate which of your listings you want to promote and create ads for those listings. The campaign starts on a specified day.

Promoted Listings: review &amp; key information (Q&amp;As) What are Promoted Listings on eBay? Promoted Listings are ads or sponsored items that allow sellers to increase their product visibility and sales. They\u2019re displayed in top places on eBay and may also appear in search results. eBay will pull the seller\u2019s promoted listing based on its relevance to the search and ad investment. What are the benefits of Promoted Listings? eBay\u2019s Promoted Listings can be effective in the following circumstances: If you offer products at similar prices to your competitors and your pricing doesn\u2019t stand out, promotion can prevent your listings from being pushed down. If you sell seasonal items (e.g. Halloween gadgets) and want to keep their sales up outside peak sales seasons. If you have great products that attract no traffic: the problem may be high-volume, saturated searches (competition for listing visibility can be tough). Grow your eBay sales! Download our FREE Ecommerce Planner! &nbsp; What is eBay\u2019s advertising model (PPC, PPI, PPS)? eBay Promoted Listings can now be used as both a pay-per-sale (PPS) and pay-per-click (PPC) model. As of September 2021 eBay announced the expansion of the Promoted Listings portfolio. Promoted Listings that remain a cost-per-sale model (sellers only pay when they sell) have been rebranded to Promoted Listings Standard (PLS). The new Promoted Listings Advanced (PLA) model is a new cost-per-click campaign type to help sellers get to the top spot in search results on eBay, including desktop, mobile, and the eBay app. Sellers are now able to bid for the top slot in search using keyword and budget controls and pay per click. Additionally, the way your sales are attributed has switched from what&#8217;s called &#8220;first-click attribution&#8221; to &#8220;last-click attribution&#8221; for both Promoted Listings Standard and Advanced. This means that if you participate in both types of campaigns, a sale will be attributed only to the campaign that the listing was in when the last paid click occurred. Examples: If your listing is clicked in a Promoted Listings Standard ad and then clicked and purchased through an Advanced ad, the sale will be attributed to the Advanced ad (you\u2019ll only pay for the click on the Advanced ad). If a buyer clicks on an Advanced ad, and then later purchases your item through a Standard ad, the sale will be attributed to the Standard ad, and you will pay the Standard ad fee (you\u2019ll still be charged for every click on an Advanced ad). If you only run a Standard campaign, you\u2019ll be charged the ad rate at the time of the buyer\u2019s last click. All existing Promoted Listings campaigns will automatically be renamed Promoted Listings Standard campaigns. The only changes will be to the name and attribution logic. Where can eBay Promoted Listings appear? eBay Promoted Listings can appear in the following spots: Top of the search results (especially PPC): if your listing is of high quality and relevance and you bid with a competitive ad rate, your listing has a better chance of showing up at the highest possible spot on the page.

They\u2019ll also appear more often and with better visibility on similar product pages. How much does eBay Promoted Listings cost? Promoted Listings Standard cost as much as you\u2019re willing to pay. The ad fee is a percentage of transaction value (excluding shipping) which sellers agree to pay for the advertising. The fee is calculated by multiplying the seller-specified bid percentage by the final sales price of the listing in the campaign. For instance, if you sell a product priced at 100\u20ac via a Promoted Listing and you are bidding 5%, you&#8217;ll pay 5\u20ac. Bid percentage can be set between 1% and 100%.
