<ul>
<li><strong>Beauty &amp; jewellery</strong><br />

 </li>
<li><strong>Sports</strong><br />
Bowls &amp; bowling<br />

<p>Why thse categories? Because the ever-inventive folks at Trade Me have come up with a <strong>Mother&#8217;s Day Gift Finder</strong>, which will send extra traffic to those categories (<a href="http://www.trademe.co.nz/Mothers-day-gift-finder" target="_blank">click this link</a> for more details on exactly which categories and sub-categories qualify). Might as well try and get found where the punters are getting sent!</p>
<p>PS Try to use the words &#8221;gift&#8221; and &#8220;mother&#8221; or &#8220;mum&#8221; in your headline, for optimum impact.</p>
<p>PPS Of course you can list your offerings in other categories if they belong elsewhere. Just understand that you will miss out on some of the genetically-modified traffic supplied by Trade Me&#8217;s latest transient promotional feature.</p>
