Your Ebay Username Should Communicate What You Sell on Ebay
Ebay allows you to change your username once every month. This is most likely because ebay knows that sellers sometimes change the type of items they sell on ebay and ebay sellers want their username to be a reflection of the type of items they are selling on ebay.
Your ebay username SHOULD reflect the main type of items you sell on ebay. This is good for several reasons:
- A niche related ebay username looks more professional. It makes it look like you are an expert in your field. This helps build a sense of trust and confidence with ebay buyers.
- A username that reflects what you sell on ebay will probably help your listings appear slightly closer to the top of the page when people search for the products you are selling. This is called search engine optimization. In other words, lets pretend two different sellers on ebay are selling running sneakers. Let's pretend both sellers have a listing for the exact same product. Both ebay listings are exactly identical. The ONLY difference is that seller #1 has a username of
ebaysellerguy12 and ebay seller #2 has a username of toprunningsneakers. Because of the username alone, ebay is automatically going to think that what seller #2 is selling is more relevant than what seller #1 is selling and list seller #2's listing slightly closer to the top than seller #1.
While the actual competitive advantage to an appropriate ebay username might be slight, at best, it is a small and easy change so you should take advantage of it and change your ebay username to match the type of products you sell on ebay.
