how are your sales on that webstore so far ?

1 Answer

no it is 2 separate fees for 2 different things…

One is for the webstore and one is for the booth…of which neither is necessary and probably should not have been done until everything was up and running to your satifaction…(my opinion)…both of these are tools to help increase your web presence and sales, but everything including sales should be in place…Search Optimization, google shopping, a check of your google feed to make sure items are not being suspended or are in correct form…good strong descriptions with keywords especially in the first 250 characters…

People will only come to your items if they find your items while doing searches, either through google, bing, yahoo or whatever and to establish a high search rank is going to take time. Memberships help increase what is already there…if the ranking, listings, and sales are not there, then the extra tools really are not going to help much…

I would drop the webstore…work on making a strong booth…if you keep the gold (though I would drop to silver (starter plan) or drop it also, but if you keep it, use the booth panel options to give more information, dress up the booth some more…get more listings…get stronger descriptions, ..and run a feed diagnostics to make sure everything is working fine…Why pay for something if not going to actually use the tools offered

If after some time you and things are running smoothly then consider where to go from there…

Good Luck
