Why List Your Products in the PayLoadz Store?

Sure, you use PayLoadz as a payment gateway to sell your virtual goods online, but have you ever thought about listing your products in our e-store? If not, you definitely should. As you know, the craze of online shopping is definitely catching up and it is quickly becoming the norm. As a virtual goods seller, you know that buying your products online is the best (and often only) way to go.

Online shopping through the PayLoadz Store is safe, easy, and convenient. The store offers the same security as any other online transactions that customers use to purchase your digital goods. The payment methods are also the same, so there’s no extra work for you. Listing your products in the PayLoadz Store means you’re getting the same reliable security and ease-of-use while offering your customers another option when it comes to finding and buying your products online.

The PayLoadz Store is really simple to use for both sellers and customers. The basic idea is similar to many other online stores you’ve probably visited. We’ve got all the goods separated into relevant categories, offer a search feature, and checkout process. Anyone who knows how to use a computer and shop online can handle the PayLoadz Store. As a seller, you don’t have to do anything extra – if you’re already a member, all you have to do is submit your store listings via your account.

We’ve got a number of features that makes listing your products in the PayLoadz Store even more rewarding. Right on the product page, we offer a Seller section that can help you maintain customers. They can view other items that you sell through the PayLoadz Store. There is also a “Contact Seller” option which allows your customers to reach you directly with any questions about your digital goods. Furthermore, “Notify Me When Seller Adds New Items” is incredibly beneficial when it comes to keeping previous customers abreast of any new products you may offer. Lastly, our “Share This Product” allows a customer to share your product page with their friends and family via email as well as any of the popular social networks.

Listing your products in the PayLoadz Store can definitely help you increase your overall sales. And to really boost sales, you should take advantage of all the features we offer sellers when submitting their products. Consider using our Featured Listing, which is a PPC (pay-per-click) option that helps your products appear at the top of relevant categories. You’ll also want to make sure that you use relevant keywords, descriptive titles, product images, and succinct product descriptions when listing your products to ensure that customers are able to find them quickly and easily.

Why Product Images are Useful for Downloads

Did you know that text and images stimulate different parts of the brain? When you think about it that probably seems pretty obvious. When you have a section of text, it is vibrant and chronological which means that it takes a certain amount of time in order to explain or understand it. In contrast, images can be understood quite quickly, within a matter of seconds. This is why it is so important to use product images when you list your digital goods for sale.

At PayLoadz, we know that the Internet has become an integral part of daily life. We get our news online, we stay in touch with friends, family, and colleagues, and we do a significant amount of shopping on the World Wide Web. Because we are so connected, images have quickly become a huge part of any online experience. Shopping online is a total experience, so why lose customers because your product listings lack images? Here are some general advantages to using product images:

· Product images give the customer an idea of what they’re paying for.

· Product images allow the customer to visualize the product description quickly.

· People recognize images quicker than text so the product image will be the first thing that attracts your customers. The description comes second.

· People love examples and samples of what they’re buying. Images achieve this perfectly in the virtual goods industry.

However, you do need to remember that using an image is only part of the entire product package. Because you’re selling virtual goods, the image you choose is the only visual representation of your product. This means choosing a relevant and good-quality image. With virtual goods, you may choose an image of the physical package of your product, if one exists. The image may also be a screenshot of one of your samples. What you sell will determine the type of image, but just remember to use the most relevant and best quality possible.

Using product images will allow your customers the whole Internet shopping experience. Images are essential to increasing your sales, but they won’t achieve that goal alone. In conjunction with product images, make sure that you take advantage of the PayLoadz Featured Listing option (check it out at https://www.payloadz.com/sell/listing_overview.asp), use relevant keywords, well-written descriptions, and descriptive titles for your products. Consider using images alongside free samples and downloads as well.

You can include images with your product listing while setting up the product in your PayLoadz account. The option for adding images is available under eStore and Payloadz Ebay Store Information section on Product Setup page.

Listing your products in the PayLoadz Store will definitely help boost your sales. But listing your product alone with text only won’t do the trick. Take in mind what we’ve just shared with you regarding product images and make some changes. We guarantee you’ll notice the difference.

Why You Should Have a Featured Listing

Listing your virtual goods on PayLoadz for sale is a great way to expand your bottom line, increase your sales, and reach more customers, but is that all you can do to boost your profit margins? Absolutely not! You can achieve even more success by using our Featured Listing feature. Let us tell you a little bit more about what Featured Listings are on PayLoadz and how they can help you.

A Featured Listing, or a featured product, will provide your product, or line of products if you choose to feature all of them, much more exposure than just the regular listing. Featured Listings appear on the PayLoadz Store home page as well in each digital goods category. In most cases, a Featured Listing will outperform and outsell those products listed normally by up to three times. We’d say that’s pretty significant! So, overall, your investment in listing products as Featured Listings definitely pays for itself.

If you are in the business of selling virtual goods, it is likely that you are also interested in making money doing so. A Featured Listing can definitely help you make a better profit. Such listings are placed above normal listings in their respective categories, which make them the first items shoppers will see. We know that first impressions really do make a difference, which is why we are offering this service.

Getting a Featured Listing is a piece of cake, really. You simply choose to make a product a Featured Listing when you add it to your roster, or even at a later time. Once you decide to feature a product, get ready for more exposure in our eStore! However, as we mentioned, there is a small investment when it comes to featuring your products. There is a $0.10 per click charge that is applied to any Featured Listing when a shopper finds your product through our Featured Listing placements.

We are so confident that you will benefit exponentially from using Featured Listings, that we are offering a bonus for all new users. Right now, we will match the amount you deposit into your Featured Listing account. So, for example, if you put in $20, we will throw in $20 making $40 available to you for the service. (Once you make that first payment, we’ll automatically credit your account.)

If you’d like to see a little more about out Featured Listing services, go ahead and check out the page in our demo account that outlines the service. Simply check out https://www.payloadz.com/sell/listing_overview.asp to get a better idea of how a Featured Listing can be placed and what your Featured Listing account will look like. Remember, if you have any questions, we are always happy to help! We do suggest that sellers take advantage of this service and at least try it out!

Five Tips for Selling on PayLoadz

One of the best and easiest ways to increase your sales and spread the reach of your product is to sell your product online. An even better way to achieve this goal is to sell digital goods, and that’s where PayLoadz comes in. PayLoadz can help you build your online business, increase your profits, boost your sales, and strengthen your bottom line.

The sale of digital items can be extremely profitable. There is no inventory to store, no postage costs, and very little overhead. This means you can make a lot of money without spending a significant amount. However, it does not happen overnight. Using PayLoadz is definitely a way to help boost your online business, and we thought we’d offer up some useful tips to help you make the most of our services.

1 – Use the PayLoadz Store

Always remember that the more venues in which you offer your product the more sales you will have. So, in addition to eBay, your own website, affiliates, and other online auction venues, the PayLoadz Store is a viable option. Our store allows for customers to search for, find your digital goods, and check out all in a few simple steps.

2 – Take Advantage of the PayLoadz Affiliate Program

Everyone could use a little bonus. Think of our affiliate program as a bonus system. When you join the program you can earn a little extra cash by promoting other PayLoadz members’ products while they do the same for you. Remember, PayLoadz Affiliate members will also promote your products for a conversion fee. It works out great for each party involved.

3 – Offer Sample Downloads

Since all of the products we offer on PayLoadz are digital items, it is usually pretty easy for merchants to offer samples of the products they offer for download. A sample will allow potential customers to test out your product and familiarize themselves with it. If they like it, they will be more likely to make the purchase. PayLoadz allows sample of video and audio files to be created for the buyer to view.

4 – Allow Subscriptions

Many times, virtual goods can be upgraded. If your digital products are the types that are frequently updated with improvements, you may want to offer customers the option for a subscription. This will allow them to purchase upgrades, tie-ins, and expansion packs quickly and easily. It can save customers money and keep them loyal to you.

5 – Use PayLoadz GoLinks

PayLoadz GoLinks are ideal for merchants that don’t actually have their own website but can be used by those that do as well. PayLoadz GoLinks are simple pieces of HTML code that you can place on almost any location online that when clicked will direct the visitor to the PayLoadz page for your product. These can be placed in emails, forum signatures, chat rooms, and just about anywhere else you can place a link!

6 - Offer Discounts

You can offer discounts on products using PayLoadz. We provide several types of discount options such as Discount Code Flat Fee, Number of Items Flat Fee Discount, Number of Items Percentage Discount etc.

7 - Use Featured Listing

Featured Listings for your products provide more exposure for your products in PayLoadz store. As for performance, Featured products outsell the normal ones by three times providing great value for your investment in Featured Listings.
