Synchronization of Ebay seller account with WordPress website

Who is this article for?

If you are going to sell on WordPress, our software solutions may release you from a large amount of routine work. Which routine work we are talking about? This is exactly what we are going to explain in this article.

The point of the task

Let’s say, you have a WordPress store. Immediately we face the task of constant synchronization of Ebay with WordPress. What we call synchronisation? Particularly, it is adding, editing and removing of product items. The main goal of synchronization is updating of the WordPress product range according to the one presented on Ebay.

Solution methods

In order the information on WordPress to be always relevant, you can:

• Constantly monitor updates on the Ebay website and edit related data on WordPress yourself. But be prepared to spend a lot of time on this task. The point is that a price list can be changed quite regularly: old items are sold out, new ones are added, the prices fluctuate and so on.
• Start using one of the services which simplify synchronization. For instance it may be Skubana. But there is no guarantee that it would work properly with your online store and besides, they are quite expensive!
• Think of choosing a freelancer specialist and set a task of developing a new program. But before doing it think about all the nerves it can take you, not to speak of the expenses…

About Ebay

eBay is an online auction where every user can choose to be a seller or a purchaser. There are over 100 millions users from all over the world registered on eBay. Everyday tens of thousands of products are sold at this huge platform. Initially eBay has been marketed as nothing short of an internet auction, but after a while auctioning has taken the second place, and now you can buy most of items at a fixed price, without participating in any kind of bidding. Common users and large companies both can act as salespeople. Also, you can contact a seller and discuss the most comfortable delivery options or ask for a discount. You can find almost anything on eBay: household appliances, clothes, food, furniture, sport goods and even automotive items. Sometimes it is possible to find some specific item only on eBay and nowhere else. But the main advantage of this website is that nearly all products there are much cheaper than in our local shops. That’s why it is especially popular among the people from GUS countries (Russia, Ukraine and Belarus).
