I understand your question is more specific.

But boosting sales, increasing traffic (and possibly targeted advertising) is what will improve your rating.

There is an E-bay store rating?

Sheba's advice is the one,

Its long but definitely worth the read and gives a good insight into proven sellers practices and insightful discussions

Recommend the Ebay Youtube Business channel, sift out what your looking to do, and target those, there is a lot on there as well, so do target for your needs.

Also do your own, thorough! research on Promoted Listings if your going down that route,

Good luck

Sorry for the delay.

I was given a ban for my previous post for going "offff topic*". You'd think with all of the private sellers to catch there would be little time for policing commentors here just trying to offer a helping hand 😁

Anyway - no store rating that I know of - I took the OP to mean visibility. And I think the more traffic you can drive to your shop the more visibility you are given so it becomes a vicious, or kindly, circle.

Certainly during pro-trader the importance of making my shop attractive and user-friendly was emphasised and as you probably know they're introduced the whole shop traffic reports now. I think ebay's thinking is that ebay is almost too big for its own good - making the whole search a tad tricky. We can argue the whole PL/advertising issue to death - but the fact remains, 100,000 sellers of an unbranded vintage leather jacket cannot all be on page one. So as @vintagewatchpart commented on his last post - it seems the successful seller builds a recognisable brand . The idea seems to be that plenty of buyers now visit their fav shops first. I suspect this makes life a lot easier when searching on smart phone. Maybe. Ebay selling never stays still does it...
