I just opened a new eBay account
and the account got suspended immediately
after I listed my first product.
What should I do now?
In this video, I will cover this situation
that a lot of drop shippers facing and
I will explain you what is the right process
to list your first product on your eBay store
so you will not be suspended. I will explain what causes
this suspension and how to avoid it.
Hello everybody!
So as I said, in this video
I will cover something that a lot of dropshippers facing
and this is that when you try to create a new
eBay account, you list your first product and boom!
You got suspended, what now?
What to do now?
And that's what we will talk about in this video.
So to cover this,
I will talk about 5 different actions
that you need to do to avoid this situation so let's start.
The first thing and the first reason why your account suspended or maybe
suspended when you open your new eBay account is
Cookie Building.
And what that is it mean?
Any browser like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer,
it doesn't matter, has something which called Cookies.
Cookies is something
that stores history about you in different sites.
So when you go to eBay, if you have
zero cookies on eBay then just go directly creating a
seller account then going directly
and immediately listing your first product
you will be suspended for sure 100%
Why?
Think about it,
this is not something, this is not a behavior
that is a real behavior or something that goes to eBay.
Nobody really goes to eBay for the first time
and then goes and immediately
creating a seller account.
Firstly, you will go, think about you
before you start dropshipping or selling on eBay.
First, you would go on eBay starting to search
for different products there and build some history.
And that's what I'm talking about.
You should build some history on eBay,
you cannot just go and list your product directly
and immediately after created your seller account.
So the process is like this;
you go to eBay and in the first week or even
my recommendation is two weeks, go
every day from your new eBay account and just search
for different products that are interesting for you.
Start and just browse over eBay, search
for things that are interesting for you.
If you want to do some shopping or to buy something
for yourself, that's the time to do this research.
Spend 10 to 15 minutes every day and
that's enough so after two weeks of doing this,
remember, do something that will look
for eBay as a human, something that looks really real.
Don't do something that looks a robotic activity,
you should go and list your first product
only after you did it for two weeks.
Remember this,
this is the most important thing and this is my first tip.
The second tip is a
Different Browser and IP.
So, that's something that I already talked
in many different videos about stealth accounts,
I will not talk about this again here,
but if you already have a seller account on eBay it doesn't matter if the account
was suspended or still active,
you should go and work from another browser
or another computer,
it depends on you.
There are many different methods to do this,
it can be Multilogin,
it can be VPS(Virtual Servers), Firefox portable,
and many other methods, but I will not focus
about it in this video.
I will share some links to our other videos
about this topic under this video.
The next thing and this is my third tip
is that your first product that you list
cannot be something from the internet.
So, I know that we are drop shippers and
I know that we search for shortcuts and
we want immediately to start earn money and
make profits, I understand this.
But the patient will save you and
will save your account and
make your business really healthy and successful.
So what you should do?
The first thing that
I recommend you to do when you list your first product is
to take something unique from your home,
not something from the internet
because for eBay it's really easy to detect any picture
that you take from the network.
So go now, open your closet,
search for something that you didn't
touch for years for months, it doesn't matter,
actually, you shouldn't really sell it,
so even something that you really like.
Just take a picture of it, list it to eBay,
and wait two days. After two days
you can just remove the product and start
listing your first real dropshipping product.
What you can do is just put a high price
for this product that you listed and this way
nobody will really buy from you.
If some buy for this high price
just go and send the product to them.
One thing that you should do before you list your
first product from your home
and just taking pictures from your phone or camera
and listing it to eBay,
and that's my fourth tip.
This one is critical. If you just go taking a picture
from your phone and listing it to eBay,
eBay will identify that this is your phone and
will link it to your other eBay accounts
if you already have some.
If that's your first account it's not a problem,
but if this not your first account
that you are doing this method or
taking any pictures from your phone
you need to follow the next steps and here is the tip.
There is something that called Metadata
for any picture or file in your computer.
This Metadata can show eBay
that this is your phone or this is your camera.
So you need to clean the image from this Metadata
which is data actually some text that written
in the image or inside the file and then eBay
can know that this file comes from your computer,
so what to do?
You have this site for example that you can use
to clean the image.
All what you do,
you go to this site that will be listed under this video,
then you click "Choose File"
You can choose the image that you want
to upload, let's take any of the images.
Let's take AutoDS logo and then you click "Remove Exif"
After you click this you have your image
cleaned in your computer, don't open it
just go now to eBay from your virtual computer,
other username or firefox or whatever
that you use for stealth accounts, then list this picture
for your first product.
That's critical! If you don't clean your picture,
your eBay account will be suspended
or linked to your other eBay accounts
that you already have if that's
not your first eBay account.
And the last tip here, Grow Slowly.
I'm not talking about
the amount of products, I'm talking about
the amount and the price of sales.
You cannot grow from zero to hundred thousands dollars in one month,
it's impossible.
If you see that you grow too fast, what you need to do is just
to increase the prices. Don't start to remove
products, if you remove products
it's also a suspicious activity for eBay and it's
something that really bad for your store.
So what you need to do is just increase the
prices and in this way you just make more profits per sale,
get less sales and that's all.
So I hope that these 5 tips really helped you,
I hope that you will be able now to go and create
tons of stores and increase your dropshipping business,
make more and more profits.
