5 Easy Steps to Posting Your First Ebay Auction for Profits

It's amazingly easy to get started posting your very first sale on eBay. Here's what you need to do in succeeding on your Ebay business.

Step 1: Open an eBay seller's account

The eBay site will then guide you through the process. For precautions, this may entail giving card details and bank information.

Step 2: Decide what to sell.

The next thing to set is the duration of the auction: 3, 5, 7 or 10 days. This is up to you: longer sales will usually get more bids, but will also seem to drag on forever.

If you've taken a picture, add it now - items with pictures always sell for more. Finally, tick the payment methods you will accept (just PayPal is best for now), and where you will post to (limit yourself to your own country to begin with). Submit and you're done!

Remember that if your item doesn't sell then you can list it again for free.
