I've heard that digital products like seo,social media stuffs (facebook likes,followers etc) selling on ebay gets really tougher because it deletes them more often since 2015.
Therefore is it nearly impossible selling intangible services on ebay?

If so what may be the alternatives for ebay?

    I wouldn't waste time trying to sell anything on ebay, they eat up all your profits... there are way better ways to make real money from home without ebay...

    If you have a service to sell, think about who needs it and how you can reach them... Like internet marketers could use a bigger social media presence, and they happen to be hanging out in an internet marketing forum.

    I personally wouldn't try selling anything on ebay unless I was trying to get a million dollars for a corn flake that looks like a famous dead guy

    Stuffs like seo and social media promotions (facebook likes) can be sold very well on Fiverr. I see so many people sell something like those there. Why you don`t try Fiverr

        is fairly new entry to this kind of market place.

        Not tried it so have no idea how it is performing.

        And as already mentioned your main market place is Fiverr. But that is swamped with SEO type offers so you will need to make your offer pretty spectacular to get any traction.

        Or there are any number of fiverr clones

        A Google search will find plenty but there is a list here

          It entirely depends on the product. I successfully sell information based products on eBay and have done for a while now. Initially it took me several attempts to locate a niche product area, create my own information products, craft the auction pages and begin selling.

          It can be done, BUT like any business it takes time to cultivate and time to reap the rewards. This is the lesson I needed to learn; don't be impatient and instead develop something that customers want to purchase.

          This is the initial step. Once this has been successful start to develop the auction pages further. Capture your customers details via an autoresponder (for instance Aweber) and perhaps include videos in your auctions which should enable you to connect more prudently with potential customers and thus convert to sales.

          I hope this helps you, have a fab day,

          Matt.

            There are no restrictions on the free, local Ebay Classifieds. I've had success with these. You just have to change the locations around from time to time. There are no fees for this.

            The other Ebay Classified ad route costs $9.95 per month, but I don't see any restrictions on downloadable materials and, according to the selling rules for downloadable digital goods you shouldn't have too much of a problem either.

              Don't believe everything you hear, ever!

              There are all kinds of digital products being sold on eBay and the people that know how to do it are not always going to divulge their secrets.

              Yes, selling digital in today's eBay marketplace is different than it was years ago . . . but it can be done, and very profitably. One of the keys is to use eBay as just one of your marketplaces - but be sure to sell elsewhere as well.

              Ebay is a wonderful place to get leads.

    Actually the competitor is increasing day by day. So it is little hard to anyone. But you need to try by which you can gain also. The online buyer also increased as the seller. Thanks a lot.
