MobileGolfStats.com was one of the first sites I ever created. It was the first time I ever used PHP and MySql to create a database driven site. The site allows you to track and analyze tons of different aspects of your golf game. Everything from your driving distance to your putting accuracy and everything in between.

It has a WordPress blog integrated with the custom membership database and I’m using the Simple:Press forum plugin. Which is a great forum plugin for WordPress by the way. It currently has over 10k members, 11k golf courses, and 22k different tee boxes in the database.

I continue to add new features to the site when I have time. Mainly because I love golf and use the site myself.

Features:

• Lots of configuration options (change text size, font, number of deals, deal category, etc…)
• It’s Free!
• Fits nicely in your Sidebar
• Did I mention it was free? Because it is.

Installation:

WP eBay Daily Deals is installed like any other WordPress plugin.

1.  Download the latest package from the downloads page (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-ebay-daily-deals/).
2. Upload the whole directory into your wordpress plugins directory (usually, yoursite/wp-content/plugins). The plugin must reside in a sub-folder called “wp-ebay-daily-deals” (lower-case!) as supplied in the zip file, else it WON’T WORK
3. Go into the WordPress admin panel, find Plugins and WP eBay Daily Deals should be listed. Click Activate to activate!

Options Screen

Now you can just drag it to your sidebar under the widgets area. Then you’ll get to set all the options.

If you have any problems or feedback we would love to here from you in the comments below.

eLiveHelp allows you to offer a live chat service directly on your eBay item pages and on your personal website. If a potential buyer is browsing your listing and has a question he can click your chat button and talk to you in real time! This greatly enhances the buyer/seller relationship leading to more sales!  Likewise if they are browsing your website and have a question you are just a click away.

Key features

Note: This application works best for popular products such as books, movies, ipods, etc… It doesn’t work so well for unique items like antiques. It can still save you time since it automatically searches for similar items, but this may or may not be useful depending on what you are selling. Please feel free to try out the trial and check it out for yourself. Let us know if you have any questions.

Feature 1, Auction Visitor (potential buyers) Free Last Minute Text or Email Alerts

Simply put eTextAlert will allow you to place a form on your auction item page that will allow visitors to sign-up for a last minute reminder. They get to choose when it gets sent and whether they want a sms text or email or both. For instance they can choose to receive an email 30 minutes before your auction ends and a sms text message 15 minutes before it ends.

Let’s face it, the average ebay shopper does not bid on an item right when they find it. They add it to their watch list along with several other similar items and wait till they get close to ending. The problem is a lot of potential buyers will simply forget to log back into ebay and miss your auction.

Feature 2, Send Yourself Seller Alerts

This feature gives you the ability to send yourself text, instant message (IM) and/or email alerts based on certain buyer actions. We also give you the ability to filter the alerts to specific items, only send them certain times of the day, and by rating if it’s a feedback alert.

The application currently supports the following seller alert types:

• new question asked
• new bid placed
• auction won
• fixed priced item bought
• payment received
• feedback left for you

Feature 3, Watch List Alerts

This gives you the ability to set yourself reminders sent via text, instant message (IM) and/or email for all auctions on your Watch List. Say goodbye to sticky notes. You can choose alerts for just certain items or automatic alerts for all item on your watch lists. Set it and forget it.
