I am constantly tweaking My About Me Page on eBay as I keep reading about how important it is and to try and get traffic to visit it. But I have come up with an idea to make people’s About Me Pages Viral but only if you give things away on them.

First of all I am going to look things that your About Me page can contain. Bear in my mind that this page is actually a space that eBay gives you and you should consider it as your own seller website.

Use this space to identify with your target market. Tell them what you can do for them ?the benefits not the features! Include contact information, even just an email address so your potential customers can contact you.

You can also put links to your websites and affiliate links on Your About Me page to create even more sales from vistors.

One thing you should definitely have on Your About Me page is an opt in box for your newsletter and a tempting offer of a free gift to encourage them to sign up.

Now you need to direct traffic to your About Me Page. You can do this by putting a link into your auction page like “just for visiting this auction you can pick up your free bonus from my About Me Page ?Click here?kind of thing!

And ..

Make it go viral. I had a brainwave of my own!!

Well here goes … I have set up a list on Listible called “eBay’s Best About Me Pages (That Give Away Free Things)”

Now obviously I have put my About Me in there and you can add your About Me page to the list and write a description about your About Me page on there to (you will need to sign up to Listible its very quick and easy). And then add the Listible link at the bottom of Your About Me page so you will be adding more value for your visitor and showing them other great About Me pages and other people will be doing the same for you. It’s a win win situation.

At the moment there is only two About Me Pages on there. So I will either browse and find some other good About Me Pages to add on there or wait for people to add their own. I will see what happens this month.

The LISTIBLE link you can find on the bottom of my About Me Page if you click through the link called “VISIT MORE FANTASTIC ABOUT ME PAGES OFFERING FREEBIES BY CLICKING THIS LINE!!” My About Me Page can be found here:

And then when I have a few About me Pages listed on their I plan to submit the Listible Link to at least 60 social bookmarking sites.

Please come join Me in this viral adventure!
