Some of current third tier sites are: ePier, SellYourItem, TopNotchAuctions, AuctionSaloon, Bidroo, PriceFire, and Bidway. Due to lower traffic, most sellers set their opening bids at an amount that is acceptable if each item gets only one bid. Most sites have options for free relisting of unsold items for a set number of times.

Lastly, there are niche sites for specialty items appealing to a specific group of buyers or collectors. Each site has a personal touch with a good core of loyal followers. Many of these sites are also free to list with a nominal FVF.

Niche sites include those catering to folks wanting pagan items, toys, Snoopy/Peanuts collectables, guns, cookbooks, beads, and books. Some sites are ePaganAuctions, AuctionWitch, Nuts, JustBeads, and PixieToys. Again, upgrade features are paid and free relisting is a desirable option.

The majority of these second and third tier sites allow links to your web site, your own banners and general promotion of your company. Each site is different, so read house rules before you list.

Listing at these other sites can accomplish several objectives: free parking of items that don't do well enough on eBay to warrant listing fees, better prices in a niche market when right buyer comes along, and greater seller name marketing of your web site or company.

Lastly consider old admonition - don't put all your eggs in one basket.....

Third, maintain focus.

Once you know what people want badly, then focus every aspect of your product on delivering information that will help them achieve their goals.

Be vicious with your editing. It's better to free flow your development of a product, that's ok. But when it comes time to edit your work, constantly ask yourself question..."Will this help customer X achieve desire that triggered their purchase of your work?"

Fourth: Less is More

Don't litter your products with extra features, extra information - consider several smaller products rather than one all encompassing product.

For instance, if you are developing infproducts, consider a 20-page Special Report, a Summary Tip Sheet, a 15-minute Interview as alternatives to a 300 page eBook with 20-pages of useful information.

Look at master marketer Joe Vitale offering highly focused eCourses for thousands of dollars - people are willing to pay big money for rich information that gets to point.

Can you help your customer using a 20-page Special report, a 15-minute recorded interview, and a 20-minute teleconference?

Each day we've got more information to process, more products to consider.

Keeping yours simple, focused on solving high-demand wants, rich in content and easily consumable your customers will reward you with dollars and success stories.
