    Hi,

    It looks like it is a new site. If you have a clear strategy on who your buyers will be and who will be posting your products (consignments) then that is a good start.

    Based on that strategy you need to market to those groups. The marketing can be in the form of posting on Craigslist or similar that you can provide consignment services in the correct category AND doing other online digital marketing activities. A few examples would be to do press releases, articles and strategic linking to related businesses.

    I looked at your site and noticed that you could add more <META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT.

    But in the mean time, I will give you a few ways that are FREE.

    1) Create Articles and submit those the various sites. As long as you SEO them well, they will make your site "more relevant" to google searches. Remember to back link the Articles (put links to your site in the article). When someone googles your keywords, you will have all these articles/websites mentioning YOUR site and make your link rank higher in search results.

    2) Get on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter as your company. Look for your "Targeted" audience and join groups where your "customers" are. Custom design your pages (whenever you can), send out "information" that is relevant about what your site does. NEVER try and sell to these groups, EVER!! Sound weird and "backwards" but, Social Media is designed to build friendships and connect with people you "know". The people you "know" will turn into your customer,.. If you start "SPAMMING", you will lose all respect your followers have/had for you. They will no longer read your post and look at your info.

    If someone asks you for something that you do not carry or have any part in, help them out and send them to where they need to be. Be supportive!!! They WILL remember that and even if they are not "buying" from you right now, you may have something for them later OR they have a friend that IS looking and they will pass your info along to them.

    3) Sound a bit strange but -Create a 30-45 sec. commercial. Use a webcam or HD video cam and film a short commercial. Put it on YouTube, add your description that plugs your website, keywords etc. If you do it right, Your video will come up on first page Google ranking. But, You have to DO IT RIGHT or it will not work. Basically, by having a video up, YouTube viewers will see it, it gets ranked on Google, AND you can use it on your website. People are more likely to stay on your site if they having something to look at.

    You do have A LOT of dead space on your site. That is PRIME REAL ESTATE on your page. Use it up. Do you see newspapers or magazines with empty or blank pages? use it up my friend!!

    4) I would love to work with you and give you the tools needed to optimize your site. You can visit my page and signup for my live FREE Webinar that will explain your very same question but in MORE detail. While you are there, grab my free book that tells you the most common mistakes internet marketers make!!
