We have recently purchased for our website business, a professional web site checking software that can audit websites. What it is designed to do is check for problems in a website such as these sort of errors. Besides making your website look unprofessional, it will hurt your internet traffic.

What this program does is scans your website examining the heaps of details on the site. This process without such software can take many hours and even days. Our website with the use of this software took almost two weeks.

What I do say about my company and what I am very proud of and what I say is that many people can sell you a website, but we do know what we are talking about. I personally have not come across a point of sale company that has as much professionalism as ours.

It's not an accident either and I practice this myself.

If you are a client of ours, want a professional scan done of your website, please let us know, and we will do one free for you. 

Rather than discount the old worthless products completely just to get rid of it, try to sell it on eBay. We do it too, for example, with aged scanners and computers that are brand new but no longer sellable also for products that we do not want to handle any more. So I am pretty experienced with eBay.

If you are thinking of doing it, here are some tips to get your selling price.

You have to know your costs exactly, shipping, packaging, transaction fees, etc. once you have done that you can set a floor price.

eBay I have noticed is not always about the lowest price. Some other points like having days for them to get the products, local pickup, freight charges, free extras and just in general how you look to the client plays a part.

Currently, check who are the main sellers for the product. You should just by looking at eBay see how hot the product is and see what price most people are selling the product. Furthermore, check what is the lowest price, I would say try to set your price at what most people look like they are selling it for now. However, if you cannot match it all is not lost as in my experience, and you have about 20% prices range on eBay. So if say the price is about $10, you can still be in the market at $12, if however, your floor price was $13, I would say you are not competitive now and you either need to drop your price, wait another two weeks and check again because prices change all the time on eBay or forget eBay for that product.

One strategy that works well, is to try to make your product unique, which makes it harder for a person looking to compare pricing. The disadvantage is that people are very wary of products without looking at them, and if you are unique, it makes it hard for them to check whether it works for them, so they move on.

Moreover, eBay is not just about price; a few bad reviews will kill you as a seller. If you get too many bad reviews, close your account and make a new account. Try not to close too many accounts as big sellers get more business because they have trust. The more you sell the more people trust you.

We do offer a complete eBay integration in our point of sale software.

I hope this all helps and let me know how it goes for you.

The very first step in going online is making a name and the problem is that with more and more Australian businesses going online, it can be hard to find a suitable name. When setting up a website for a client, I have noticed that getting the right name takes a lot of time.

If you want some ideas, then write down your company name and your main products, then look up a thesaurus and try to get a few more ideas.

Now if you see yourself as a local business, I would suggest that you consider adding the main suburbs near you because that is what people will search on, e.g. if I am looking for a chemist in Blackland, I might search "Blackland chemist". Try to avoid street names if you can they do not help online. If there is a prominent site nearby you may be able to connect to that item. While if you see yourself as a national business, then you will be looking to connect your domain name to your major product and/or service.

The idea is that you are trying to make a name that people will find in a search. So it is worth doing some research as a good name will increase your credibility and improve your rankings in Google.

Then here is a website that can help you look for ideas.
