With Bonanza you really have to do alot of advertising and drive your own traffic to your booth. I have been with this site for many years and it gets better with each one. Also, I add new items daily to keep it fresh for customers, also there are a few sellers on Bonanza that can help advertise for you for very reasonable rates. I myself sell thru various other locations but Bonanza is my main booth & webstore. Good luck to you!

I do not know other than to give it some more time. One week is not enough time to see how you will do.

I know that it can take some time before Google organic trusts a site. Like us, Google has customers. Google wants to make sure and give their users a safe experience. The longer your site is up, the more Google will start to trust it and hopefully bring your booth up more in their search. I’m speaking of www.google.com.

Here on Bonanza, we have to rely a lot on Google shopping and Google organic.

The sales I have received have come from Google shopping. I have noticed though, that I am starting to get more traffic from Google organic.

Your titles and descriptions are great. I hope you get a sale soon.

Thanks my friend and you too!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also try Social Media like facebook and twitter!! It helps me get more traffic and views!!

It is time consuming to load so I loaded only a few items and have not had a single view even though I am offering the 19 percent so it make me think that I do not want to pay more for upgrades since I get nothing now not even a view..

I don’t know for sure when you started but it takes a lot of time and patience.

I have been on Bonanza close to a year, I have had no sales and no views. So I am not sure how to get traffic without spending money for fees

I think the “best Way for antique books” would probably be to research book clubs and see if they provide a “classified” section for members – then post the link on it as well as ask what titles or books others might be looking for. I did this with one of my collectibles before the major club site ended and it helped alot. The other suggestion is look at what title/subject matter you have books on and post where other clubs might be related – I.E. Western, Native American, Religious etc. Or – to help out other promoters here – I know Mytexastreasures runs social media promos (I have used her a lot)and she can also develop a pinterest page for you – where the title and related “stuff” would be antique/collectible books – if you are not active on the social media scene – paying a little bit for others to promote you is a good way to go – once those are out there – people re-pin to others about the things they have seen.

I’ve been on Bonanza for 10+ years hoping they would improve something other than more fees! Traffic on their site is lame to say the least. I literally have maybe one sale a month through them and now I have to pay a $20 minimum listing fee? Just closed my booth today, 6/02/2025. My reason is after 10 years and asking I’ve never seen any advertisements promoting Bonanza, no phone app, and lots of technical issues with the listings when they’re imported from eBay. Such a shame, I tried for 10 years, I’m done.
