A Huge List Of Places To Add Your Link or RSS Feed - Thank You To Everyone Invloved (Updated Frequently)

Hey everyone!

This list will be updated frequently. Many times on Bonanzle & other sites members share places they have found to either place an add for free, a link or to submit your RSS feed from your site, blog or Bonanzle booth. The list below starts with places to put your links compiled by CabinFever from Bonanzle. Then I will keep adding more under this list that I find and that others find. You might find a few doubles between different lists.

Well today I signed into Bonanzle and found a fellow member had been hard at work compiling a list of sites to promote. I cannot take credit for the list I am adding to my blog today ALL CREDIT for the hard work put into this list GOES TO Cabin Fever. You can see Cabin Fever's Booth on Bonanzle here: http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/CabinFever

Thank you Cabin Fever for all of your hard work. You are truly an awesome person! Now to share here (and for my own selfish reasons of making it easy for me to find the list in a simple click lol).

THANK YOU AGAIN TO CABIN FEVER FOR THE WORK PUT INTO CREATING AND ORGANIZING THIS LIST http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/CabinFever

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Next we have a list shared on the Bonanzle forum by Steve AKA The Jewerly Shack

I put my own notes next to the links as I went through. Not all of them have notes from me but most do. I highly suggest http://millionrss.com and after you submit your RSS url there search for Bonanzle and BUMP your fellow Bonanzlers entries. Remember if you have a blog do one for the your blog and one for your booth (your booth on Bonanzle RSS feed can be found in "My Bonanzle - Promote - Use Blogs To Promote")

http://Feedest.com (one of my favorites so far)
http://Blogoculars.com (one of my favorites so far)
http://2RSS.com
http://FeedsFarm.com
http://RssFeeds.com
http://RSSaround.com
http://Feedbees.com
http://FeedsHoster.com
http://Plazoo.com
http://Page2go2.com
http://Feedooyoo.com
http://RSSmicro.com
http://FeedFury.com
http://Octora.com (one of my favorites so far)
http://FindRSS.net (this one wanted a payment so I skipped them)
http://FeedBase.net (I could not figure this one out, but maybe someone else can)
http://RSSmotron.com (this one was easy too)
http://MoreNews.be (they are looking for things with news, if your blog includes news good place to put it)
http://DayTimeNews.com (I kept getting error)
http://Rss-Feeds-Submission.com (they want a link back. Dont know how well it will work for booths but blogs as long as you add a link to them on sidebar in your blog. Just copy the html they give you to include their link)

http://MillionRSS.com (my favorite so far. When you submit your rss feed make sure you put Bonanzle in the title part so when others search for bonanzle they can BUMP your entry easily)

Yahoo RSS Guide
http://ReadABlog.com (Irony here – I could get my booth rss feed to go through but not my blog lol)

http://GoldenFeed.com (simple, fast and worked great)
http://BlogDigger.com (I had trouble finding where to add feed so here is the link right to the spot http://blogdigger.com/add.jsp )

http://RSSFeeds.com (this one baffles me I can’t figure it out lol)
http://feed24.com (this is another news one, but if you have something on a blog thats fits news would work well)

http://88tem.com (they want a link back to them in order to submit. I added their html code for their link to my blog and entered my blog url where they ask for the link back url)

http://WeBlogAlot.com (they want a link back that you need to place before submitting your rss feed. This would work great for blogs as you can add the html code in your blog for them then submit your rss feed for your blog)

http://FeedBoy.com (this one was easy but could not find where to submit at first if you scroll down to list at top of the list on left side says add your feed link)

http://Chordata.info (at the HOME tab, you select the category that fits your feed suggestion, click on that category, then there is a line that says “suggest a feed” and you can enter the feed you think would fit in that category.)

http://BlogPulse.com (another one I could not find a place to submit, but if you find it let me know lol)

http://DayPop.com (could not get this one to load but not counting it out might be something with my connection)

http://IceRocket.com (easy to submit)
http://RSS-Network.com (a couple people now have said this one wont load)
http://Jordomedia.com (easy and fast on this one)
http://Feeds2read.net (well could not find a place to submit, tried entering in custom feeds, looked neat not sure if it did anything though lol)

http://Feedcycle.com (don’t get this one at all)
http://FeedShark.BrainBliss.com (I added my blog here, seemed to work. They ask you to add a code in your blog too which I did. I can’t see how to tell if it is really working though, but I guess worth a shot)

http://FeedPlex.com (did not see where to enter feed but it did have option to add url so I did that)

These RSS directories require free username registration.

http://FeedCat.net (worked for blog well but you have to put tracking code in your blog for it to stay. Would probably work for booths on a temporary basis I would think)

http://RSSmad.com (you can actually enter feeds here without joining, blue looking box middle right hand side of screen. Pretty easy one too)

http://Feedage.com (doing this one now, looks great and I know it works cause I searched Bonanzle and found some of your booths I will be rating them once I am all signed up there are 2 pages of us there when you search for bonanzle. Open each one and rate with the stars )

http://NewsIsFree.com
http://RSSfeedz.com
http://Syndic8.com
http://NewzAlert.com

MORE SUGGESTED BY OTHER MEMBERS

http://publisher.yahoo.com/rss_guide/submit.php (this one I was able to enter my blog but not my booth. Will have to try again)

http://www.feedbomb.com/ (you have to click on the categories, then when your in the one that fits scroll all the way to bottom and find submit feed link)

Purrfectly Natural Cat Treats AND Waggin Tails & Wet Noses

UPDATE: Purrfectly Natural Gourmet Kitty Treats are Now Available

Orders have been coming in and shipments going out to happy customers stop by
KimsKorner and see our Kitty Treats Category. Available in multiple flavors and package sizes. We are offering extra small size treats at this time perfect for even the smallest of kitty's.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

This is something that has been in the works for a while now, but its important to be prepared when preparing foods for furbabies. My dear friend Shasta has been making treats for the furry friend community for years. Shasta mainly sold locally in a shop in her town, and has been making her own puppy pals treats for a very long time. Recently she began selling her treats online in her Bonanzle booth. Shasta decided it was best for her furry customers if she focused on the pup end and trained me in the kitty treat market. You can right now see her pup treats which come in all shapes and sizes here:
Waggin Tails & Wet Noses

Shasta makes healthy & tasty organic treats for dogs all over the world now. She does not like using Soy as vets advise against it for dogs with allergies, she will however include soy when requested. In addition she advised me not be fooled by extremely cheap treats being offered as organic treats as even when purchasing at wholesale costs organic ingredients are higher priced than a generic ordinary treat. Sometimes the lowest cost is NOT the best choice. I now know through training she is 100% right. You cannot skimp when it comes to making sure our babies have the best.

Shasta and her own furry babies would love for you to stop by and visit. She welcomes all questions and even has special Treat of The Month club memberships she offers.

I give a BIG Thank you to her for all of her training that has now made it possible for me to add Purrrfectly Natural Cat Treats to my booth by the end of this coming week. We are very excited about this and so our the babies in our home (our kitty's). As a bonus our oldest kitty is super picky, which we will KNOW for sure how tasty the treats are from our finicky taste tester :)

So be on the look out no later than December 14th For the Kitty end of Waggin Tails & Wet Noses to arrive in KimsKorner booth on Bonanzle -- Purrrfectly Natural Cat Treats --

Thank you all.

UPDATE 12/19/2008
The Kitty treats are delayed but we are expecting to be offering them after Christmas sometime soon.

Using Forums To Advertise Without Spamming

A wonderful way to spread the word of your booth, website or store is to take advantage of using a signature line in forum posts. This works especially well when you are trying to hit a target market. For example a seller tonight on Bonanzle was asking for advice on getting more sales. I noticed many of his items listed were collector type comic books. This is a perfect situation to use forums to advertise. However most the forums you want to target do not allow spamming and you will get booted out quicker than your second post if you show up and say "I sell comic books come look".

Tips for using forums to advertise without spamming

1. Google forums along with keywords relevant to what your selling. Using the seller above as an example I will say google "Comic Book Collector Forum" you will come back with many results.

2. Check out some of the forums. Check to see how active they are. If nobody has been posting for months now do not even bother. Check to see if they allow signature lines with links. Normally in most forums it is okay to have a link in your signature line. Some forums however do not allow ANY links at all even in signatures. You will want to stay away from these.

3. Once you have found a few target forums with good traffic that will allow you to have a signature line sign up and post an introduction. Most of them will have a forum thread just for this. When posting your introduction do not come off like a sales pitch. Using the comic book example: Let them know who you are, where your from, how long you have been collecting comics, when your interest in comics was first sparked, your favorite comic books, your least favorite, how many you have in your own collection, ones you have been looking for. You can also mention very slightly how you run a comic booth online in order to support your own comic book purchasing habits ha ha ha.

4. Look around for other posts in the forum that you can reply to in a genuine way. If you look at it as a way to advertise that is how you will come off. Look for posts that interest you, ones you have an opinion about. Reply to these posts in an honest sincere way. Do not mention your booth at all. (only that little link in signature line)

5. Get to know other people on the forum have fun and be friendly. All the time while meeting new people and having fun you are getting your link out there to people who do enjoy the things you sell or need the things you sell and you are not spamming them with just another sales pitch.

6. Watch for "Wanted" posts. These type of posts are okay to post a response to letting them know if you happen to have what they are looking for. It is also a good idea to give a discount to:
"Hey I am looking for Batman edition 72" (I have no idea what I am talking about ha) Then you reply with "What a small world I happen to have that issue listed in my booth over on Bonanzle (or wherever) and its in mint condition, since I know you from here if you want it I will give you a 15% discount".

NEVER go in with a "I am here to make money off these people" attitude. It will not get you far. You may make life long friends and sales at the same time. Who could ask for more?

(Most of my blogs I use Bonanzle as an example. It is one of my favorite sites out there and the main one I sell on. Most things I write about can be applied anywhere however)

No Sales? There Could Be Many Reasons Why That You Can Fix

I have seen complaining about sales on site forums as long as I can remember. It has happened everywhere. Heck I have even seen it on the big old Eb*y site forums. For 10 years I have read the same things over and over about no sales I am jumping ship and giving up without even ever really giving it a good shot. When I go to look at their profiles, stores, booths I find many things that could easily explain the problem at hand.

Recently on one of my favorite sites that I sell on "Bonanzle" I have read some sellers complain "no sales I am closing up shop". I am always curious I cannot help it. I have to go look and see. I always try to encourage those wanting to give up without sounding insulting in any way. I do however have to point some things out. I do not do this to be mean. I am far from perfect and need the advise of others many times as well.

I know some will say well I was selling over at such and such. Hmmmm then why were you looking for a new venue to begin with if everything was going so well? Million dollar question there.

As far as those who are perplexed and do not understand why they are not getting sales. I am writing this for you. Once again not to insult only to help you achieve your goal of selling those items and making money for yourself & your family.

When I go and check out profiles of people wanting to give up this is what I find:

1. They have been there less than 2 weeks (have not given it a chance to even work)

2. Come to find out they never did the google base feed (thats a free way to be seen sitting right there and increased traffic and sales hugely). On Bonanzle if you cannot figure it out - heck I could not - Send an email to Mark with your google base email & password and your Bonanzle booth name he will set it up for you. Now thats above and beyond customer service there!

3. They joined a month ago or less ago and listed less than 15 items in their booth (you barely have any inventory how can you complain your 15 items are not selling in an endless see of online items for sale) In all seriousness, expand your inventory get more listings up. Give your customer a selection. Add new items at least once a week. Give them a reason to keep checking back. If they come back a couple of times to see the same things, they wont bother to keep coming back in the future.

4. They have not filled in their profile, imported feedback, simply threw a few items up with one sentence descriptions and no combined percentage off sales, no combined shipping nothing. (this looks very fly by night to me and I would not purchase)

5. They are complaining in the chat in their own booth about lack of sales (again not a good thing for a prospective customer to see upon entering your booth, they are going to wonder what is wrong with your items or you that you are not getting sales) Keep that chat in your booth friendly. Welcome your customer, encourage them to leave you a message, let them know you combine shipping, let them know if you gift wrap etc.

6. The pictures! Oh my this is a big one. I have seen pictures that I can barely make out what the item is. Pictures speak a thousand words. Lets not have them screaming the wrong things with blurry out of focus and dark images or piles of junk in the background of the photo. Take clear pictures, edit them with a photo editor if need be. Bonanzle has a cropping tool built in CROP out those boxes of stuff in the background. Let the photo be of the item you are selling not the piles of stuff in the background. You want the focus on your item up for grabs not the background.

7. Boys Shorts Blue - That is not a title that is going to make someone click and check out more. Okay I admit I don't always use all of the space provided and sometimes get hung up on what to put in the title. Please though put as many key words as you can - Boys Blue Shorts Sz 2 Osh Kosh Elastic Waist - Might seem simple, but trust me it helps in a big way.

Laziness is the key to why many sales are lost. I fall into the trap myself many times. Pull out the tape measurer. Measure the length of the necklace, get a ring sizer (ask any avon seller to order one for you) list the size of the ring. Pictures do not always show accurate size of a pin or pendant take the photo of them next to a ruler or a quarter or penny. So people can see the approximate size.

If we are to succeed in anything we do it will be through hard work, trial and error and not giving up. This stands true for life in general and certainly for online sales. There are times where you might feel you have done everything you can possibly do and still come up short. Thats when you instead of giving up brainstorm to come up with even more ideas. Maybe your items are not what people are looking for right now. Keep in mind we are in a recession. Some things that might have done great a year ago will be hard sells now. Keep an open mind to change as times change we must change with them to continue to be successful. The time will come again when shoppers are making the impulse purchases but we have to face facts right now is not that time in most cases.

I hope this helped at least one person to decide to look over their approach and helped them fix up their Bonanzle booth, website or store and in turn bring them in some sales.
