Why is it so difficult to sell on bonanza?

Do you feel the same? I sold very well on other sites but unable to sell one thing here in three months! What should I do?

I started out great last July when I opened this booth, now I’m stagnant. And I’m promoting constantly. Either people aren’t buying or this site has suppressed my feed or something.

Galaxy, statistics seem to show at least 60% of sales come in via Google and a huge portion now from Pinterest. The titles are the number one way to get sales from Google. You have to think like a shopper when you create your title. What would you type in if you were looking for a product? Scottie dog silver hoop charm earrings? Short and to the point titles are the best.
Steampunk Robot Dangle Earrings Bronze, or however you would search.

Pinterest is visual with millions of shoppers, so pin your items, and try to create a pinterest presence for yourself with a lot of followers. Pinterest is indexed nicely into Google organic as well. I had a sale from Pinterest last week, within 30 minutes of pinning the item.
If your jewelry is handcrafted, Bonanza has a blog on how you can create your own brand which is helpful as well.

Not being able to see pictures in search results might be part of the problem. Going on two weeks since I’ve been able to see all the pictures on this site using Firefox browser. Browser works fine on every other site I go to…

Same here! My ebay is going great, but it’s dead here! I promote my items, I do get views, but the sales have been dead. Not sure what’s going on…

I switched from Etsy to Bonanza. I sold quite a few prints on Etsy but found them a bit pricey. But I’m going back. Have hundreds of views on Bonanza but not a single sale in over a year. I think people are stealing my images instead of buying them? Not a good site for selling your products at all!
