Try to name your website to a product(s) or service that you are offering. You could name your site HNS Games or something similar.

When you first setup a website, it doesn't mean you will get visitors / sales straight away. You will have to do a lot of marketing but in the long run, having a website is a good way to make money though it requires time.

If I was you, I would open a website, and like I say to others, carry on selling on eBay as you can use eBay to promote your website and gain sales through your website.

Hope this helps

HNSMedia.co.uk seems ok. Easy to remember as well.

Well it all depends really. If you have the right budget to buy 100 items then yeah why not? Having a variety of products can also attract a lot of buyers as you are offering more items for sale.

I would not buy from a website which only offers about 10 products.

Like I said, having your own website and selling on eBay is the way to go if your looking to expanding your business and earning more sales.

I also wouldn't buy anything from an games shop with only 10 games in it.

HNSMedia.co.uk - it's not a good name at all - there's no story, there's no buying experience. It's not eye catching, it's not memorable, it's not personal. It's BLANK.

Sorry for such a harsh words - just want you to get it right from the beginning.
