Hey there!  I’ve been taking a little breaky, break from blogging on my eBay items for a week or two.  Why?  Because I was doing a bit of an experiment – test, test, test!  This blog is still in its infancy and it’s important to me to figure out what’s working and not working.  I love this blog, so it’s worth my time to have a good look at how it’s helping my eBay sales.  I was so excited to share my results with my friends over at Freshnet.com.

I’ve done a test to see if I can get a good stream of traffic – and you know what I noticed…the blog really works!  In my first two weeks up and running there was a nice increase in traffic from my blog and from google!

The date range on the image below is from my eBay traffic log.  It is a two week period of time where there were consistent blog posts referring to items within my eBay store.  Since this is a new blog, the results for bbalerts.com were never there.  I always had ’some’ google traffic, but this IS a big jump since implementing bbalerts blog.  A noticeable 5.3% in traffic – and there was a noticeable increase in eBay sales.

I went back one month prior and measured my eBay traffic for another 2 week period of time as a comparison.  An obvious increase in the google ranking.

Then, I decided to do another experiment.  I stopped blogging about my items and my traffic (and eBay sales) took a nose dive.  The results below are from the last two weeks in August.

So what do you think?  Clearly a drop in results when you stop blogging!  I tell the subscribers at Boutique Bargains all the time….keep on listing!  Now I’m telling them to Keep on Blogging!
