How many ebay listing actually contain the right keywords for their products?

Few sellers realise their item titles are not optimized for relevant keywords. It is keywords that bring traffic to your listings and eventually these clients end up visiting your store. The choice of keywords in the item titles can make the difference between a higher search standing or not.

eBay have certainly changed the listings page for 'good' as per their recent upgrades.

This could benefit none other than ebay team as sellers find it too hard to put in a lot of content for their listings without displaying the vertical scroll bar for the item description.

eBay.com has recently announced that their old-search format will be phased-out in April. The new “search” system gives users the ability to specify a range of criteria from payment method and item location, to specifics of colour, size and item condition, category, buyer location, etc.

eBay claims the new search system is widely accepted by their community of users. However, many of the forums do not claim to provide information that is consistent with ebay's results.
