It may be hard to see why Google changing their SEO practices is hurting the bottom line for eBay. Well, that's what you will get some information on below. This is something that not only hurts eBay, but a number of people that depend on SEO practices.
When it comes to SEO the people at Google change the way they rank pages quite a bit. This is due to the fact that there are those that try to game the system by taking advantage of the rules when they are found out. Generally the rules out there aren't shown to anyone because if they were to be, people would just start taking advantage of them and it would be impossible for Google to rank their pages correctly.
As a result, eBay has decided to reengage existing clientele, as well as bring in new customers, using strategies including coupon in, increased market spending and advertising, and providing more seller incentives. The problem seems to be solely based upon tactics that are not allowed by Google, which forced them to penalize eBay in some way. Hopefully these changes will take effect quickly as third-quarter earnings need to be higher to compensate for the previous quarter.
This is a lesson that everyone should learn in regard to search engine optimization. Google controls the game, and by flirting with tactics and strategies that will definitely be frowned upon, Google doesn't care who they take down. Although eBay has stated publicly that they will use more money for Google advertising, this is probably not true.
They are definitely against paid search, stating that it is literally ineffective when it comes to advertising major brands simply because everyone already knows who they are. This should be a wake-up call, however, for eBay to play smarter game, one that will keep them under the radar, and allow them to benefit from the Google search engine.
Recently, eBay denounced Google Adwords, stating that it was virtually ineffective when it came to marketing major brands, something that eBay does on a regular basis. Now, eBay is stating that Google's latest updates have hit them very hard.
