New Features on KnittingIndustry.com’s Used Machinery market place

25 April 2009, Manchester – KnittingIndustry.com has upgraded its Used Machinery market place by offering buyers and sellers of used knitting machines a range of new features which will enhance their trading experience. The online news and technical resource for the knitting industry, allows sellers to upload machines they have for sale, into their own space on the site, free of charge.

Easy search and improved results display

Used Machinery on KnittingIndustry.com is categorised so that buyers can find exactly what they want quickly. For example, if a buyer is looking for a used Shima Seiki SES122S machine in 12 gauge, all they have to do is select ‘Flat & Fully Fashioned Knitting’ and then drill down the search by selecting a manufacturer name and gauge. A list of results is then displayed and the buyer can click on each result for full technical and seller details. Results are now displayed 30 to a page so that buyers can identify easily what they are looking for in KnittingIndustry.com’s extensive lists.

Another new feature offered to sellers is the ability to include links to images and video clips when they are uploading their machines for sale.

Power Sellers get higher visibility in search results lists

Setting up an account and listing machines on KnittingIndustry.com’s Used Machinery market place is easy to do and is free of charge. However, for those seeking higher visibility in search results, becoming a Power Seller is a very good option.

Power Sellers pay a low monthly fee to receive the following benefits;

Power Seller’s machines go to the top of all search results lists and are highlighted in yellow, making them much more visible to buyers;Power Sellers also get a button with their logo on it, which appears at the top of all search results pages in the used machinery category they have selected. This raises the Power Seller’s profile with buyers; When a buyer clicks on a Power Seller button they are presented with a list of all machines for sale by that particular Power Seller. The buyer is then focussed on the Power Seller’s machines only
