Marketing your store with Kaboodle and ThisNext
Kaboodle and ThisNext are really good tools for helping get traffic and sales at your e-commerce store. They are stores that let anyone list any product from any store, and share recommendations, wishlists, and so on.
The Benefits:
- It gives you another format for getting your products out there, especially if you are a niche store.
- It’s free, targeted traffic
- They don’t take commissions
- They provide one-way links back to your store, which is good for SEO
- These sites have high PR. Both have a PR 6, which means they can rank higher and faster than your store can.
They both have firefox plug-ins, which make the process of submitting lots of products easy. You can also use the Informenter plug-in to make the process go super-fast.
Kaboodle will also let you run your brand once they confirm you own it, if you have a unique set of products you sell.
Many thanks for taking the trouble to post this info I found it extremely helpful. When looking at Kaboodle etc it seems clear that thee are for the US market. Can you offer some suggestions for the UK market place.
