The site just does not seem to be improving.

Hello WiseEyes,
Thanks for your question. Sorry to hear about the difficulty that you have had with this issue. As you can imagine, there are a lot of factors at play when it comes to why any individual seller may or may not be making sales on Bonanza.
For example, when I took a look at your account I quickly saw that you do not have Google Shopping enabled for your items. Our Google Shopping advertising system is one of the primary ways that outside shoppers find items for sale on Bonanza, and without it, shoppers would need to either find your items by searching directly on the Bonanza website, or you could direct buyers to your item listings yourself.
If you contact our support team using the “Help” drop down menu at the top of any Bonanza page, or send us an email to [email protected], we would be more than happy to provide you with even more specific advice on how you can maximize your sales potential on Bonanza.
Thanks!

They changed to the Crooked B on the Name that’s not an improvement? They sure thought it was making a big deal about it! How about drawing in some sales that would of been an improvement

I can only speak of my own experience and here goes…
It has slowed over the past 5 months or so.
Google shopping views had went way down to one or even zero views a day.
June and July…
Not so good at all.
August…
A few more sales thankfully. Still very low on Google shopping views though.
September…
One nice sale. Google views had went up considerably in comparison to previous months.
October…
One sale so far this month with it being a direct sale on Bonanza meaning the buyer was shopping on Bonanza and found my listing and made the purchase. Google shopping views so far are the same as September.
So to rely on Bonanza alone is not enough. In my opinion it is worth it to sell on more than one site. Personally I do sell on eBay. I don’t do as well as others on there but it is nice to have eBay in addition to Bonanza. I also just started back listing on Etsy. I do not have any duplicated listings across the sites. I used to have duplicated listings on Bonanza and eBay but it got me too nervous. I don’t want any bad feedback because of making an error with my listings across two sites.
Good luck.
If it has been a year, try going through and sprucing up a little. Take a look at your pricing…if that’s fine run a coupon code and the discounted price will show up on Google shopping. Are your listings definitely in Google Shopping?
If in Google shopping, click to update your booth regardless if changes have been made or not.

I used to sell 10-20 items aday between my 3 booths. The past 5 months I’ve only sold 5 items. Mercari is just about as bad, maybe 1 sale a week. The only one really doing anything for me is ebay and sales are down & up on there from week to week.
