My Tripleclicks Listings Are Going Viral!

Here's another benefit of featuring your products on Tripleclicks: Other SFI members may start to promote your items using their affiliate links.

This is a win-win situation for all parties. The person who listed the item stands a better chance of selling it, and the SFI affiliate who promotes it stands to gain a big boost in the SFI rankings and commission payouts if the product is sold via that affiliate's link.

Here are two of the places where my mahjong sets are now being promoted:

and

http://www.sulit.com.ph/index.php/view+classifieds/id/1638569/Classic+Japanese+Mahjong+Set+

The first of those two links is also being promoted on this blog:

http://www.letssharewealth.com/earn-money-online-in-your-first-month-with-sfi/.

So, by signing up for a free membership of SFI and posting your products on Tripleclicks you stand a good chance of having your listings "go viral".

Send Targeted Traffic To Your TripleClicks Listings & Boost Your Sales

Here's how you can increase the probability of selling your gear on TripleClicks or any other online garage sale or auction site:

Send targeted traffic to your listings.

If you are selling valuable stuff with a high profit margin, a small PPC campaign might be the way to go, but obviously you need to set up the campaign so that you don't spend more on clicks than you make per sale.

A PPC campaign would also be better where you are selling the same product line over and over again rather than a one-off item you want to clear out of your attic. That way, you can get the benefit of higher sales for lower PPC cost as you tweak and test your PPC campaign.

If you are selling off some items related to your business or hobby website, then write about your listing on your website and link across to it. That way, you will be sending targeted traffic to your listing.

You can also do this on your blog and why not set up a Squidoo lens as well. The more directed traffic you have heading towards your listing the sooner you will sell it.

There is one drawback to pointing multiple links to a single listing, however... When you sell the item the URL link will no longer be of much use and you will have to replace it with a link to another of your listings.

SOLUTION: USE A TRACKING SERVICE AND REPLACE ALL YOUR LINKS IN A SINGLE ACTION!

A professional link tracker such as the HitsConnect link tracking service will save you time when you need to replace the item listing URL.

Instead of going back to all your sites and replacing the links one-by-one, you can simple replace the link ONCE on your link tracker.

TripleClicks Customer Care's Prompt Response

When you post an item for sale on TripleClicks it is first checked by a staff member before it goes live on the site. You receive a notification by email as soon as the item goes live. In my experience the process does not take very long. Yesterday, for example, I posted the Japanese Sushi Mahjong Set and received notification later the same day.

When I checked the listing, however, I noticed that most of the words were missing from the title. Just the first word of my intended title, "Japanese Sushi Mahjong Set", was showing.

So I sent a quick message to customer care and the matter was dealt with promptly, as you can see if you check the email exchange which I have pasted below.

Smooth Purchase Of Books On Alibris Via The TripleClicks Maxmalls Portal

Alibris is an online bookstore that stocks more than 60 million new, second hand, rare, collectible and out of print books as well as films, music.

Alibris is one of numerous stores that were featured on SFI's Maxmalls web portal until recently. Now Maxmalls has been integrated with the newer TripleClicks site, so I wanted to try it out.

Actually, this was my second visit to TripleClicks in search of Maxmall-featured stores. On my previous visit I couldn't work out how to find Maxmalls listings, although there is a panel on the right of TripleClicks browsing pages that specifically lists Maxmalls as one of the "narrow search" options:

NARROW YOUR RESULTS:

LISTING TYPE

TC Direct Listings Only
Private Seller Listings Only
MaxMalls Merchants Only

Doh! Here is the blurb on the SFI member's news page:

"Narrow your results within TripleClicks departments and find the type of TripleClicks listing you're looking for...It's super easy! Just go to the TC department you want. In the "Sort or Narrow Results" box to the right of your results, you'll see LISTING TYPE options that let you filter results to show only TC Direct Listings, Private Seller Listings, or MaxMalls Merchants only."

Okay, so I went back to TripleClicks tonight and selected the "Books" department, then clicked on the "Maxmalls Merchants only" link to find a range of eight book, audiobook and magazine sellers, namely,

Hay House

Alibris

Simply Audiobooks

TextBookX.com

Readers Digest

National Geographic

iUniverse

AbeBooks.co.uk

I clicked on Alibris and then purchased "Machiavelli in Hell," by Sebastian De Grazia. The crossover from TripleClicks to Alibris was very smooth as was the purchase.

One more thing for SFI affiliates to consider. Every time they buy something on TripleClicks from one of the more than 150 MaxMalls merchants, 100% of the commission that SFI gets goes into the Executive Bonus Pool and is shared out to qualifying SFI affiliates.

So click this link to join SFI free and get into the habit of doing your online shopping through the TripleClicks portal.

Selling My Stuff On TripleClicks

I just made my first sale on SFI's TripleClicks!

I put a bargain-priced mahjong set on the site a few days ago and have just received notification that it is sold!

So, not only do I make a bit of money on the mahjong set, I also make a commission from SFI - and whenever my customer purchases anything else on Tripleclicks I'll earn commission.

What I want to do now is start selling a whole range of bargain-priced goods on TripleClicks with the short-term aim of selling enough gear in a month to cover my EA status with SFI in SFI commission alone (quite apart from the profit I'll make on sales of my own goods on TripleClicks).

I think SFI offers newbie affiliates a great way to build their online business, but please note that at the moment TripleClicks is not for commercial sellers. A commercial selling feature will be added later this year, I hear, so watch this space.
