In recent days, I tried to increase my income through online stores. The results that I received until now, has not exactly what I expect. I tried to make my online store, keep going. Have you ever opened an online store? You have any advice for me?

hi again, i used to have a problem but not with paypal but the debit card that i opened and registered with paypal before, and i had to keep writing them to correct whatever was needed to be corrected. it took me nearly 5 months, if i remember correctly, doing those letters and follow ups before i got my money. ann

How about try social-network marketing? For example, in Facebook, Take photos of your products, upload it on facebook, and then tag your friend on those photos You can place your website link on the photo's description, or simply place the price and how-to-buy stuff. You can also create a fanpage about your online store, and then promote it to your friend. And also you may also ask your friend to help you promoting your page :) More people aware with your stores, more people would be likely interested with your products, and more income for you

I've done what you suggest. So far there are few results, although not exactly what I want. Everything needed process. I very much hope, does not require a very lengthy process.

Ah, I see. You are right, I think there's no instant success. At first you have to give a little more patience and never give up. Just keep up the good work and success may come

Hello. That is an excellent way of doing online business. Many people buy things from online stores these days. If you can promote unique products, at very reasonable prices, your business will certainly thrive. I have been thinking of starting an online business too, but have not got to it yet. Good luck to you !

hey that is a great idea actually online stores are now a days a huge hit. they are making tonnes of money but it is also not easy to maintain an online store. well for an experience you can go to look at some sites like fetise.com and so sasta.com and snapdeal.com and last but not least deals and you.com.. well i wish you a very very good luck for this venture.

Yes. You are right. It is very difficult to manage an online store. I tried hard, to manage it best. I also learned, from another online store.

I have an online store myself and like you the result is not exactly what I expected too. But you must not stop there, having an online store requires hard work. You have to have good and unique products. You have to have a lot of sites to promote your products to create the need for them. I post my products to social networking sites and other free websites 2 to 3 times a week. For faster transactions I give out my cellphone number. Just keep going and you'll get there.

Ive tried the online store before. Its not easy because of the cost of the website. You have to pay so much a month etc. If thats not going to well you may try selling on ebay. They also have ebay store. But if things are not going very at first i would suggest not having the store just list some things there. If it goes well then do the online store.

I have never bought, or sell goods online. Hopefully, your online store successful. I can not give any advice, because I do not have the experience, the online store. You should try, as best as possible.
