Why the right category matters

A mismatched category wastes attention. If you are looking for pants, you should not have to dig through a general clothing page first. The same is true for watches, bags, jewelry, and shoes. The closer the starting point is, the easier it is to compare details.

Next step

After picking a category, use the QC checklist to decide which listings are worth keeping.
