HTML Code Tutorial for Creating eBay Listings

Thank you for viewing our tutorial for HTML codes for eBay listing. If you are completely new to HTML, then you are probably already getting frustrated. Html is probably the easiest computer language to learn, but it is difficult for everyone at first.

In this basic tutorial, we will try & cover the basics on how to use html codes to make your eBay auction listings stand out from the competition!

Introduction: What Are HTML Codes Anyways?

HTML simply stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is a computer code that internet browsers(such as internet explorer, mozilla, firefox, etc) use to read & display information about the design of a web page according to the coding. Every web page you view online (including this page) is made up of html codes.

When you view a page of html, the browser only displays what the codes tell it to display. For example, the size & color of this text you are reading right now is 10pt, black, and verdana font. I had to write an html code so it would show up this way.

Every portion on this page (bold text, links, tables & layout) was designed using html codes.

How to Use HTML Codes on eBay

You can take advantage of HTML to add things such as marquees, text codes, & more to make your listings stand out from the competition.

eBay will allow you to enter your own html codes when you make your listing description. This is great because it means you can do much more than what eBay’s normal designs will allow you to do.

To get started, you will first want to look at our html codes section. This section contains several html codes that you can use on websites, eBay listings, & much more. We have codes for text, codes for images, & much more.

Once you find some codes you are interested in using in your listing, you will simply insert that code into your eBay listing. Here is what you need to do:

First, to use an html code, you will need to insert the code in the description using the HTML tab where you create your eBay listing. Here is a picture of the HTML tab in eBay below:

Now, to add an html code, you will click the html tab as pictured above. For this example, I will show you how to add an html marquee code. Click the link below to to find out how to do this.

Free eBay About Me Page Template Designs

If you want to attract more sales & potential buyers, you need to create an “About Me” page on your eBay account. You can do this by logging into your eBay account, and then click this link: Create About Me.

These templates are basic designs that include some of the special “About Me” eBay HTML tags (such as showing your current items for sale). These templates do not contain any images, or other html codes.

If you want to add an image (such as a logo or picture of yourself), or you want to add neat html codes to really spice up your about me page check out our HTML codes & HTML Image codes! Also don’t forget to check the complete listing of all “About Me” html codes that you can use.

To use these codes, simply copy them & then paste them into the page on eBay’s site where you can create your about me page. Remember to select the “enter HTML” option so you can simply paste these codes into the page & create a great about me page! Just make sure to copy the entire code in the box!
