What is the eBay Solutions Directory?
 
The eBay Solutions Directory is an online directory of hundreds of tools and services from eBay and third party developers.

How does the eBay community know about the eBay Solutions Directory?
 
eBay does quite a bit of marketing to the eBay community to ensure that eBay users know about the resources available in the Solutions Directory. In fact, the Solutions Directory is on the global navigation on the homepage of eBay.com. We mention it in press releases, talk about it on eBay Radio, advertise it with banner advertisements on the eBay.com website, feature it at eBay Live!, and include it in community newsletters.
 
How does the community use the directory to determine which solutions to choose?
 

There are a few ways people can search the eBay Solutions Directory:

 
1. They can browse by specific category
2. They can conduct a search by name or function
3. They can use the Solutions Finder diagnostic tool. From the homepage of solutions.ebay.com they can click on "Go" at the top left of the page and answer a few easy questions. As a result, the Finder will deliver a list of solutions from Certified Providers and/or eBay that best suit their needs.
 
How can I stand out and get my solution noticed in the eBay Solutions Directory?
 
The most important thing you can do to stand out in the eBay Solutions Directory is to encourage your current customers to rate your solutions and leave reviews for you on your listing page in the Solutions Directory. Listings with Ratings and Reviews get bumped up to the top of search results in the Solutions Directory because a user can sort by Ratings and Reviews when they're conducting a search.
 
We've made it easy for you to get more Ratings and Reviews for your solutions by creating the Solutions Directory Ratings and Reviews Toolkit, which includes sample emails you can send your customers to ask them to leave you feedback, and a blurb you can use in your newsletter.
