Marketplace traffic or your own online store: choose a measurable test
A marketplace listing and an own store solve different jobs. The choice depends on the product, margin, customer relationship and what can actually be measured after the click. We establish those conditions before buying external traffic
When the marketplace route fits
A recognisable product with a competitive listing, reliable stock and delivery may benefit from a short purchase route. The test needs a defined destination and the conversion data genuinely available from that platform. An outbound click should not be presented as a confirmed order
When an own store adds value
Original products, a service package, customisation or repeat-customer communication can justify a direct site. ToyTrick sold original clothing; Phone Parts separated urgent delivery from wholesale service; the flooring store explained a complete installed project. These are different propositions from a standard listing
A bounded commercial comparison
We compare acquisition cost with the margin and verified sales for the chosen route. Listing fees, fulfilment, returns and service costs belong in that calculation. Our published examples below are own-site and B2B funnels; they are not evidence of sales from external ads to a Wildberries listing
