Searching for web design, eBay opportunities

By Dennis Guten on August 7, 2008 No Comments

It’s been a while since I blogged about the “out of work, looking for work” deal, so here’s a little update.

About 6 weeks have passed since I was laid off and I have been actively searching for web design and related opportunities/positions.

I have come across some really diverse things. I have landed a freelance gig helping a small company ramp up to the opening of an e-commerce furniture store and am working a bit on that now.

I have been spending some time working on developing some phpBay Pro based sites to earn eBay affiliate income. They are WordPress blogs/sites that point to items on sale currently on eBay. If a visitor comes to your site, clicks on an auction or one of the other eBay pointer links, then a 7-day cookie is set on that computer – if an eBay auction win occurs from that computer within the 7-days, then I get a split on the fees that eBay collects for the auction.

phpBay Pro Software

It all works through the phpBay Pro WordPress plugin I purchased that calls in all the auctions based on keywords/parameters you set in the software. Pretty neat. It was only $49 and can be used on an unlimited number of sites.

As of today I have yet to earn any income from that, but I am willing to sit it out and try to build up traffic to the sites (a list of these sites are in the sidebar under “other Buford sites”).

I am currently participating in a new online blogging contest/course called the thirty day challenge. It has videos that teach you how to learn how to do sites for profit the correct way to not spin your wheels. I just started this and will post more after I get more into the course. The course is free, run by Aussie’s named Ed and Dan.

You can sign up for the thirty day challenge (30dc) yourself and try it out.

I’m also looking into various opportunities making partnerships with business owners selling items for them on eBay. It’s amazing how many of those are out there.

Today I went to a company that had boxes of computer products (new, but pretty old), plus 23 new violins (go figure) to sell. I took home a box full of them (1 of each item) to research the products to see if they will sell.

I have answered a ton of online ads for web site design, graphic design, html, css, web optimization, seo and more. there seems to be a lot out there, but nothing has fallen into place yet.

No prob. I’ll just continue doing what I am doing and something will happen. More later.

Affiliate Marketing has benefits

By Dennis Guten on June 12, 2008 No Comments

Lately I have been trying out a few new affiliate marketing ideas to see if I can increase my income online.

In the past I did get an affiliate payback for getting a new customer to sign up for web site hosting with my hosting company, 1and1.com.


It was a customer that I was (and still am) working on their web site. they are a married couple that have the site joiededeux.com and they were looking for a hosting company with a better deal than the one they were using.

I have been using them for years since I was in college, in fact, I got my first 3 years totally free on a special deal a fellow student turned me on to.

My banner on the right will take you to them and I will get an affiliate payout for being the one that sent you to them. No cost to you. They also have some of the least expensive domain name prices of the big name services at $6.99/yr.

I am also starting up the eBay affiliate program too.

More eBay

By Dennis Guten on June 11, 2008 No Comments

I have been having fun listing more stuff on eBay and have even made a little money. It’s not web design, but hey, it lets me buy a few gadgets here and there.

BTW…I just joined this cool eBay Affilliate Network called the eBay Partner Network and if you click any of my eBay links on the blog then eBay will pay me part of their fee they collect on the sale. It costs the buyer or the seller nothing at all.
