Ebay Boycott

Tonight i was watching the business news sector and Ebay happened to be on the hot topic list, ebay sellers have decided to boycott the site they are fuming because Ebay doesn’t seem to care about there concerns…

“We heard from lots of angry eBay sellers yesterday who passionately argued that the boycott –which began on Feb. 18 — is delivering a serious blow to the online auction site.

Many commenters pointed to listings data from third-party sites that illustrate a significant decline in activity on eBay over the last four days. We’ve also heard a variety of arguments as to why listings aren’t down more dramatically — including several sellers’ theory that listings are being artificially inflated by eBay with test bids. (An eBay spokesman refused to comment, calling the notion “absurd.”)

Still, it’s not clear that a migration of sellers — even if there are thousands of them — will lead eBay to reverse the changes made to the fee structure and feedback system.”

So you have 2 choices
1. Get in now while all the big players are out, Remember if you get in now the buyers are still there & the competition is gone, start/keep selling your stuff on Ebay :)

2. Join the heard, stop selling your stuff & lose money.

If you sell stuff on ebay keep selling it’s just the smarter option for you and your business, go against the flow.

Ok people I’ve kept this one to myself for awhile now but i thought it’s time to talk about them. Google pages are free web pages that you can make online, there like mini websites. To make a Google page site you will need to use your g-mail account, If you don’t know what that is or you don’t have one it’s just a email account you get from Google just type Gmail into the search engine sign up and your first step is complete.

Google pages are very easy to use and they have a few good templates to use for your new projects. You are able to add your Adsense codes or any other affiliate link or program you are associated with to your Googlepages, also they are great for back links. G-pages are just like Yahoo’s Geo cities & Blog spot blogger blogs but you don’t have to update everyday to stay at the top all you have to do is add a RSS feed. Googlepages also come with a forum where you can get help and even show your new site to all the other g-page owners (another back link).

Here’s a 1 Google page I’ve built…

Forget Geocities or even getting a domain just yet, try and focus on building 1 of these so you can learn SEO and get to the top of the search engines this way. There are so many thing you can do with Google Pages it’s crazy. You can make as many pages as you want, there is a 100mb limit on each Googlepage site you make but that’s heaps.

Basic Html Codes

When creating or editing your websites and web pages you will have to use some basic html codes. Below are a few basic html codes I consistently use when ever I create a new site or web page.

Important make sure you remove the * symbol so the word looks like “center” “strong” & make sure there are NO SPACES.

How to CENTER your Content or Ad Units
< cen*ter > Your Content or ad unit < /cen*ter >

How to BOLD your content or a single word
< stro*ng > content or word < /stro*ng >

How to HYPER LINK using basic html code
< a hr*ef=” your domai.com “> Your Content, Word or Tinyurl

How to set a BREAK in your content

< * br> or < /* br >
[Example: Yesterday I went to the park with my dog
< * br>
He loved it. ] This code allows you to separate the content.

How to define a paragraph

< *p> content < /*p >

Colour Codes

Main Colors…
Black: #000000, Red: #FF0000, Blue: #0000FF, White: #FFFFFF, Light Blue: #00FFFF.

How to make the color code…
< font co*lor= *”#00FFFF” face* =”courier” >This code makes the content be light blue< / *font >
This code makes the content be light blue

Thats about it, these are the basic codes I use all the time especially for Squidoo and Hub Pages. If you need more advanced Html codes visit http://www.w3schools.com
