I need advice about World of Warcraft business

Discussion in 'General Business' started by Actaviosan, Apr 28, 2010.

    Hello.
    I need fellow members advice about an issue im facing.
    I'm a reseller of World of Warcraft Gamecards and CD-Keys (electronic deliveries.)
    The problem is that I've been trying to boost sales up by posting on forums and such, but no one's buying they're all going for the illegal gamecards and cd-keys (that are stolen,) thus ruining my legal business, no one's buying from me.
    I thought about opening up an online store but it just costs too much.

    Any advice/help?
    Thank you.

    You are also competing with those selling legal game cards for cheaper than you. Your website is not "known" so you have people that will go with a trusted seller even if you had cheaper prices.

    -Find forums related to game tips/guides related to Wow and post there
    -Sell on Amazon.com Need to compete with Amazon selling the game cards at 28.62
    -Work on google seo optimization if thats possible
    -Sell on ebay

    Overall I would first lower your price on the game time cards. The expansion prices seem like a good deal, I know I paid more than that...

    Try to locate other game cards to sell. See if you can sell mabinogi, fiesta, perfect world, everquest, etc so you can expand your search results and advertising.

    Forums, I will try finding more, also I will try on Amazon.com
    Regarding e-Bay, it's against their terms to sell Keys and Gamecards.

    Regarding other games, I can do that.

    But the problem is that maintaining an online store is very hard due to its expenses that I can not even afford half of it!

    I don't understand the expenses of an online store? You purchase the domain, install the necessary software (you should be able to find free open source software), and renew it once a year?

    Hey,

    How much are you selling your Game cards for official wow for 1 month?

    I'm thinking on MAYBE starting to play for an hour or two every now and then so if you have a good price then i could buy off you every month if i decide to play. (I use to be addicted)

    You need to post on Amazon, This is very easy to make a simple website, You can send me a PM if you need someone to make you a site for a very good price around $30 which will be worth it.

    I have no one month gamecards. I only have 60-days gamecards. It's against the rules to do trades in this forum also.
    On amazon I tried but they only accept tangible deliveries while I only do electronic e-mail deliveries!
