Common questions
Do I have to pay to list on these sites?
Varies by site. Some are free (GoTo Auction free signup, AuctionZip basic listings), some charge per listing, some have subscription pricing. Check each site's pricing page directly.
Is Maxanet affiliated with any of these listing sites?
Maxanet has a direct integration with GoTo Auction (see the GoTo Auction article). Other listing sites are third-party and require you to manually cross-post your auctions or use their own tools.
Which site works best for my auction type?
Depends on what you sell. For general/estate auctions, GoTo Auction and AuctionZip are widely used. For heavy equipment, AuctionHQ. For art and antiques, LiveAuctioneers and Invaluable. Experiment and see which ones drive bidder signups for your specific niche.
Can I list the same auction on multiple sites?
Yes. There's no exclusivity — list the same auction on as many sites as you want to maximize bidder reach.
