Okay, Mark, you’re beginning to sound a lot like Mr. Garry Conn what with all the things you’re managing. That’s not a bad thing, btw, except for maybe the looks, but let’s not go there. 🙂

Hey, tell me about this phpBay package. I’ve heard of BANS, but that’s almost twice as much as phpBay, which is one thing that caught my attention. Is phpBay a way to setup shop promoting ebay products?

Garry Conn is off the hook — no way I could ever keep up with him. LOL

phpBay is really great. There are (at least) two versions — a stand-alone php version and a wordpress plugin version. I really like the latter. It is designed to allow you to integrate ebay auctions into wp in a way that allows google to index the content. This is cool for several SEO reasons. Links back to eBay are masked, so it looks like the items are for sale on your site.

If people click through to eBay from your site using phpBay you get the commission according to the eBay affiliate program rules if they win the auction.

I recommend the software not only because it works well, but also because the developer (Wade) is a great guy.

Regards,
Mark

You’re such a busy guy! And thanks for allowing me a drunk day on my blog. 🙂

Joking… I don’t drink but I did slack off for half the day and updated my blog with yet another theme. LOL!!!
