No offense but that banner is way too small and just does not look good. I would highly suggest using neomallers banners. For example this one: If you just got to upgrade a couple more sizes to get into MI Marketplace I would definitely do that. :)

The image did not show. O_o Well I am just going to attach it to a file. (Note: This is not the actual size)

I agree! Your banner needs to grab the person's attention to make them want to click on it instead of go, "Oh, too many words....I"m moving on" Which is what I would think. Give it a try and see if it helps to add one or two banners. _____________________________________________________ ~ Mimi's Ménagerie Avatars ~ http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=temps_bons&misc

When I was in Spooky Market, I kept myself at the top of the first page in whichever hut I was in (it changed) but I still never got more than 2-3 hits from it a day, and most days I got zero. I didn't really start getting hut hits until I moved to Mystery Island Marketplace. There still are not a lot of hut hits, maybe 2-4 per day. I think for shops as small as ours (mine is about your size) most of the hits are going to come from ShopWiz and having good prices. Even though I try to stay near the top of the first page in my Mystery Island hut, most of my hits are still from Shopwiz, and next down about 10%-20% from the 4mil NB ad. ~ Love books?

[quote] Like when people decide to love your shop, they really love your shop - I had ONE costumer buy over 150 items frmo me yesterday, averaging 1.2k per item but profits around 500np per item... So it was a good day for me - I found out it was for her gallery but she never finished browsing my pages, she went up to page 5 I think and I believe she'll come back xD So it has it's ups and downs.. Not a very popular cat like wearables but at least it's not crappy like, you know, school supplies XD[/quote] Oh yes, I had that aswell! But my profits are way lower then yours. Toy shop doesn't restock anything good while I'm online, so I have to restock SSW, which lowers profit. The shopadd boards is the only way to get higher traffic, and Shop Wiz aswell. I 'll change to MI for a week and see what's happening. I'm not top of my hut there though.

[/quote] ~ May ~ I restock basically only by Shop Wiz (not ssw) and keep my prices low for my wiz cattegory, that might increase your profits a bit.. Also, wearable toys sell well and allow a higher profit (5 to 10k on some items)... Also, keep an eye for shops with one cheap item, if they have more, they are usually also cheaper so you cna buy all and keep a sdb stock that will help you get more profit when that item inflates :P

I get hardly ever get any hits from my hut, out of around 500 hits a day i sometimes get 1, it has always been this way for me whatever hut i am in it makes no difference, maybe it is to do with my catogory (collectables)

You have no banner so people aren't able to visit your shop through the hut.

*hunts for wearable toys* I have one, that Darigan Spike Ball. And it sells very well indeed! I bought them in bulk when they were 10 nps each, now they are worth 3000. Yay! Thank you for the tip May!

Thank you for the tip May![/quote] ~ May ~ For wearable toys, you can go on JellyNeo and select "toys" from one list and "wearables" from another, so you get all of them, there is a nice number of half cheap ones and several very expensive - I advise aggainst the "basic color baloons" XD And then you can change toys for plushies, for example, and see wearable plushies (but I think there are only 2 or 3) at least that's how I do it :)
