UK Antique Dealers Beat the Credit Crisis with Sellingantiques.co.uk

Reach thousands of new customers every week by joining Sellingantiques.co.uk - and beat the credit crisis by giving your sales a massive boost.

"Very pleased with the new website - it looks fantastic and we are sure that it will help sales. "
Mytton Antiques - Jerrard Nares - 26 June 2009

The internet has completely changed the way the antiques business works.

Dealers are no longer confined to selling antiques from shops, fairs and through trade publications - business savvy operators are now turning to the world wide web to reach more customers than ever, especially in these times of credit-crisis.

But it’s not enough simply to have a website. You need to get your antiques in front of the right customers, which means being on page one of Google for antiques-related searches. And there’s only a handful of companies that are able to achieve that.

So how can independent dealers ever hope to compete?

By joining together as part of Sellingantiques.co.uk.

What is sellingantiques.co.uk?

Sellingantiques.co.uk brings together antique dealers and customers in a single, online marketplace. It’s great for customers - because it allows them to search the inventories of over 100 antique dealers all at the same time.

"Sellingantiques have been very helpful in getting us on to their site and are very good at keeping us up to date with ongoing developments "
Coram Antiques - 25 June 2009

How does it work?

Sellingantiques.co.uk allows antique dealers from right across the UK to display their stock on a single website. Their antiques are then pored over by the many thousands of visitors from around the world who come to Sellingantiques.co.uk every day.

Once a buyer arrives at the site they can select the categories of antiques they wish to browse, or they can perform a keyword search to find specific items.
 
Antiques are initially shown as small thumbnail pictures, with 40 antiques displayed on each page. The buyer can then click on each image for further information and larger photos.

When a customers sees an item they like, they simply contact the dealer directly.

Sellingantiques.co.uk is an extremely busy place, and it’s getting busier every day. The footfall is massive, with over 60,000 unique visitors to the website each month.
These 60,000 visitors account for over 3 million individual item views.

"Hampton Antiques have been with Selling Antiques for several years now and have enjoyed many sales due to its high ranking searches and simple website "
Hampton Antiques - 23 June 2009


Where will I appear on Google?

Placement on search engines is the single most important factor in the success of any website. If your website fails to make it to page 1 of the search engine results, you stand no chance of attracting a good flow visitors.

However, getting a website to page 1 on search engines is a massive undertaking and involves large expenditure. In fact 50% of Sellingantiques.co.uk income is re-invested into search engine optimisation.

Remember, there are only 10 websites listed on page 1 for search engine results. This is why displaying your stock on Sellingantiques.co.uk is the best way to drive large numbers of customers to your website.


How long has sellingantiques.co.uk been in business?

Sellingantiques.co.uk was established in February 2002 and started with just a handful of antiques dealers. It has now built up a large and very active community of dealers and continues to expand on a weekly basis.


Sellingantiques.co.uk and WEADA

In August 2008, The West of England Antique Dealers Association asked Sellingantiques.co.uk to provide their expertise in the re-design and take-over the management of the www.weada.co.uk website.

Sellingantiques.co.uk now powers the WEADA website and provides an online selling platform to its almost 100 members.

"New recent customers from Japan and Ukraine, proves the world-wide exposure of this site. Delighted! "

The greater proportion of enquiries and sales I receive originate through them. Although the quantity of contributors to the site grows all the time, Selling Antiques have not lost the personal element towards their customers and in my experience have been very fair in their pricing and what they offer for it.."

"At Antiquedesks.net we have been successfully promoting our range at Sellingantiques.co.uk for several years.

During that time, we have received positive and enthusiastic comments from customers and have recommended the site to those seeking antique furniture beyond our range.

Along with our customers, we have found the site easy to use and easy to navigate. In summary, as long as Sellingantiques.co.uk maintains its focus on offering convenience, good value and a high ranking in terms of the Google search engine results, I can see no reason why our successful association with them should not continue for many years to come.

6. Why doesn't Sellingantiques.co.uk show its telephone number?
We only provide our phone number to antique dealers who are interested to join Sellingantiques.co.uk. This helps filter out calls from interested buyers - as we want buyers to contact antique dealers directly.

7. Do I have to show my address?
No, you do not have to show your address. For security reasons, some antique dealers prefer to show just an email address or telephone number. This is entirely acceptable and should not adversely affect your sales.

8. Can I upload a cheaper priced antique e.g. £50?
Usually, only antiques priced over £100 will appear on the main category pages. This helps to maintain a good standard of antiques on display. However, some categories e.g. ceramics, have a lower threshold, and items under £100 are also shown.

Your membership only allows you to display antiques that you are selling. We have special arrangements with some leading antique centres who are permitted to display antiques for third parties. If you wish to display antiques for other people then please contact us to discuss your requirements.

10. After I upload a new antique is it shown instantly on Sellingantiques?
Each antique that is displayed on Sellingantiques.co.uk is individually categorised by a human being. This means there may be a short delay between your uploading an antique and its appearance on the website.
