    You have an account with zeekler - not exactly your own site.

    Isn't that market a bit overheated? What have you done so far? What did you write down under "marketing" in your business plan?

    We need a bit more info - what have you tried already, and what kind of budget have you got? There are many free advertising options - creating pages on Squidoo and Hubpages for instance. Have you created a Facebook page yet? Have you started backlinking your site and getting social bookmarks? You could start an email list about making money on auction sites, and have a signup form on your blog......

    best wishes,

    Jon.
