What is the Auction Booth?

As a seller on Yahoo! Auctions, you have your very own Auction Booth.

What is My Auction Booth?

My Auction Booth is a custom page on Yahoo! Auctions that you create to feature your auction items. It's different than your Auction Listings page because you give it a custom look -- think of it as your own, personal auction site on the Internet! Use the Auction Booth to:

  • Send customers to a single source for all of your auction listings.
  • Display your auctions in a unique location where there are no competing sellers.
  • Control the look and feel of your very own booth. Be creative and promote your brand.

How do I customize My Auction Booth?

Here's how to quickly create a simple page or to design a fully-branded auction presence that you can integrate with the rest of your online presence:

  • To set up your Auction Booth, click on \"Options\" in the upper right corner of the Yahoo! Auctions home page, and select \"Customize My Auction Booth.\"
  • To create a simple booth, give your Booth a unique name, and add an image or logo.
  • To create a customized booth that matches your web site design, go one step further and customize your pages with Yahoo! PageBuilder tools to customize your booth pages so they match your web site design. Voila! It's as if your web site had its own auctions!
  • Now you have a web address (URL) for your Auction Booth that you can link to from your personal or business web site, from web advertisements, or from anywhere else on the Internet, to connect visitors directly to your auctions.
  • Promote your Auction Booth by printing its web address (URL) on your business cards, include it in your email signature, and post it on appropriate message boards, or in relevant collectibles clubs and newsgroups in order to promote your auctions.

What is the URL of My Auction Booth?

The URL for your booth is: http://auctions.yahoo.ca/booth/yahooid (Replace \"yahooid\" with your own Yahoo! ID.)
