Ever wonder what that little blue and red “me” icon is beside the product listing? In the world of eBay, it simply means that the seller has created an About Me page to tell you more about themselves. Clicking on that icon will take you to their About Me page.
But this article isn’t about how to use icons in eBay, we want to tell you a bit more about that particular page and how to use it to advertise your online store and your listings. Basically, this page will let you promote your auctions and build trust within the eBay community.
While your reputation scores will speak for itself, having that About Me page can help your potential buyers gain confidence in your as a seller if they know more about you, how many years you’ve been selling in eBay, the kinds of items you sell, any quality parameters you set as well as other items you sell in eBay.
To create your About Me page, login to eBay and follow the steps below:
