Talk about Social Commerce to your friends and they will give the name Ebay. And rightly so, since the auction site is the referent of social shopping.
However, Ebay, in its own turn, is impacted by the rapid expansion of social networks and their user friendly quality. Doesn’t auction selling on Ebay run the risk of giving way to social networks where internet users are increasingly spending the majority of their time?
This is where Page Mage can be helpful. A platform for designing Ebay auction templates, which helps improve ones selling page using videos, slideshows or even pop ups.
Page Mage is even taking it one step further by incorporating a “share” function that enables to post a page on Blogger, Facebook, MySpace or LiveJournal.
As indicated by Eric Scifres, CEO of Page Mage,
“By sharing the listing where people are congregating, a listing’s visibility grows exponentially.”
For example, on Facebook, your Ebay offers will appear on your “wall”, allowing your friends to leave comments or to share, in turn, your offer with other friends.
If the transaction is still done on Ebay the solution proposed by Page Mage takes the opposite direction of Facebook Connect by releasing the offers into the social network.
Is this a new trend?
