The figures are still keeping growing.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">In respect of social media, Amazon has a<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Amazon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Facebook<\/a> <\/span>page with nearly 30 million followers, a<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/amazon?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">twitter <\/a><\/span>account with over 3.3 million followers and an Instagram account with 2.7 million followers.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-42097\" src=\"https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6.jpg\" alt=\"Amzon vs eBay_Amazon Customer Base\" width=\"913\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6.jpg 913w, https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6-300x84.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6-768x215.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6-200x56.jpg 200w, https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6-400x112.jpg 400w, https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6-600x168.jpg 600w, https:\/\/jingsourcing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6-800x223.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 913px) 100vw, 913px\" \/>I believe we all know what social media means for promotion as one of the most direct marketing channels. All these social media platforms will keep continuously generating quality traffic to Amazon given proper operation.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">But the thing is that you don\u2019t really have direct access to your customer base though you can share Amazon\u2019s enormous traffic.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\"> There is hardly a way to get your customers\u2019 email addresses, and you have to contact your customers through Amazon\u2019s message system. That is to say, in some way the customers are actually Amazon\u2019s customers instead of yours.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h3><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong><em>Customer Base of eBay<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">eBay has 23 independent international sites covering more than 100 countries, but sellers are able to access all the sites with only one same account, which is different from Amazon.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">There are 182 million eBay users globally according to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oberlo.com\/blog\/ebay-statistics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Oberlo<\/a><\/span>, and over 70% of traffic comes from USA with China being the second largest market.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">eBay\u2019s mobile app has been downloaded for more than 450 million times, and over 50% of the eBay\u2019s transactions are carried out on mobile terminals.

Because Amazon is such an extremely customer-centered platform that it implements stricter seller policies.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Secondly, the product listing rules of Amazon are also stricter, so you may expect a higher cost for listing your products. You\u2019ll need to put enough effort to optimize your product listing pages so you can get better ranks in product search results.\u00a0And also you have to keep your inventory at a satisfying level so your products won\u2019t loss all the ranking advantages after you\u2019re out of inventory.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Thirdly, Amazon has greater potential for profiting. Needless to say that Amazon is the largest online shopping platform with the largest customer base in the world now, so the profit cap is correspondingly the highest one among all the e-commerce platforms.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-55ae6fb\" data-id=\"55ae6fb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3aa2acb\" data-id=\"3aa2acb\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8b1cfd5 elementor-view-stacked elementor-shape-circle elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"8b1cfd5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-tags\" viewBox=\"0 0 640 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M497.941 225.941L286.059 14.059A48 48 0 0 0 252.118 0H48C21.49 0 0 21.49 0 48v204.118a48 48 0 0 0 14.059 33.941l211.882 211.882c18.744 18.745 49.136 18.746 67.882 0l204.118-204.118c18.745-18.745 18.745-49.137 0-67.882zM112 160c-26.51 0-48-21.49-48-48s21.49-48 48-48 48 21.49 48 48-21.49 48-48 48zm513.941 133.823L421.823 497.941c-18.745 18.745-49.137 18.745-67.882 0l-.36-.36L527.64 323.522c16.999-16.999 26.36-39.6 26.36-63.64s-9.362-46.641-26.36-63.64L331.397 0h48.721a48 48 0 0 1 33.941 14.059l211.882 211.882c18.745 18.745 18.745 49.137 0 67.882z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-477357e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"477357e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">While on the eBay side, there is a relatively less-restricted environment for sellers. In other words, it will be easier to get your business started .<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Secondly, there are fewer restrictions on product listing, so you\u2019ll have more options for products to sell. You can sell branded products, used items or some random leftover junk as you want, which would allow you to run your business in a more characteristic way.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Thirdly, sellers have more direct access to their customers. If you want to make your business into a long-term profitable one, customer educating will be an essential part of it. You may create your own customer email list and market whatever products you want to market to them.\u00a0And given enough interaction with the customers you gained on eBay, you can even transfer them to other e-commerce platforms.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-d2465d7 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d2465d7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8cfe0f0\" data-id=\"8cfe0f0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c67773 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"7c67773\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-abe2e6f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"abe2e6f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">So, how to choose a better platform between Amazon and eBay for starting your business?
