Create Ebay Listings With Impact Without Knowing HTML

EBay listings are the point of contact between you and your potential bidder. The more impact you can make on that bidder, the better off you will be. Many sellers don’t take advantage of the fact that you can use HTML coding to really create a more impressive listing. They don’t take advantage of that feature because they don’t know HTML. You can create great eBay listings even if you don’t know HTML.

There are many programs available that can be used to create web pages. Microsoft Frontpage is one of them. You can use these programs to design your listing and just cut and paste the HTML code into the text area of the listing page. What if you don’t have frontpage? Frontpage costs more than it is worth if you only do a few ads now and then. Don’t worry, there are some great no cost alternatives.

One of the best is a program called NVU. You can find it at NVU dot Com. You can download it there for free. It is a full featured WYSIWYG web page creation program. It is easy to install and it is easy to use. WYSIWYG stands for what you see is what you get. It means that however you design you listing, that is how it will look. You don’t have to know HTML to create impactful interesting pages.

If you can use a word processor like Microsoft Word or Word Perfect, then you can easily use NVU. You type your listing as you would in the text area. Then you can bold text, change color, highlight text make it larger, smaller anything you want.

You can insert graphics and you can insert pictures. The only thing you need to know is that if you want to insert pictures, you need to have them somewhere on the web. You can use any photo sharing site, or personal web space you might have on AOL or any other service.

Once you have your listing page done exactly the way you want it you are done with the hard part. NVU automatically creates the HTML code for that page. If you click on the code tab at the bottom of the NVU editor you will see the HTML code. Don’t worry, you don’t need to understand it or use it.

All you need to do with the HTML code is to cut and paste it. When you are on the code page, from the edit menu click select all. When it is all selected you select copy. You then go to the listing page on eBay and where you would type in your listing, just paste it in.

When you preview your eBay ad or when you finalize the listing it should look exactly the way you designed it in your NVU web editor. Now your auction listings on eBay will look more professional and will add more interest to get your visitors to bid.
