I am wondering if my fellow sellers are doing very good with your Vendio Store? And I want to touch base with some common conserns.
This month I have had around 40 hits on my Vendio Store. And I am sure most were me checking stuff and people checking out from my eBay sales.
My eBay store I get about 2000 hits a month. This month I am on track to do 1400 hits. They come from the listings and storefront. About 40 a day use my web address.
The Vendio Store I don't have it on Shopzilla or Froogle and I am mainly wondering if by putting it on those site would it change the counts to compete with eBay. But then eBay is my hit hound. Without eBay I would have Zero.
My sales though are a different story. All of my sales are from the eBay Auctions. I think I sold one thing on my eBay Store in the past 2 years. So really I stopped posting things on the eBay Store for fixed prices. My thinking is that I want to close the eBay store all together and save the $15. And just have the Vendio Store. But then I still want the 1400 hits.

For some reason, the vendio stores do not show up as well in google search as TIAS, Bluejay, Ruby Lane. I don't know why.
However, Google does crawl this space and I can find my Vendio store items on Google when doing specific searches. If I do a generic search: vintage advertising then my vendio store does not fare very well.
Vendio does a feed to Froogle and again, specific searchs for my store items turn up pretty good.
My vendio store seems to run hot and cold. The best use of it I think is to direct good eBay customers to it for repeat sales. I enclose a vendio store flyer with each purchase to show the eBay customer that there is more where that came from and at a better price.
