Sorry, we don’t sell to online retailers.

Went to the Melbourne Toy, Hobby and Nursery Fair this morning. It has been a long time since I have been to an trade expo like this, and brought back some memories of doing this for our previous online business Tacklemania which we sold over a year ago now. I took 2 of my eCommerce [...]

Nathan — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 11:42:01 +0000

It feels a little strange to finally see my book in the wild (yes, Making money on eBay for Dummies is now on sale!). I first spotted it online at Booktopia for pre-order. Wierd feeling! It was a long time in the making, and should be on shelves of bookstores in early December. So if [...]

Don’t let me fool you, the title of this post makes it sound like it is all possible. Well, maybe it is. But there are a few reasons it has taken me so long to post an update on my blog, and the heading says it all. It has been a long, active year. Financial [...]

Want an easy way to boost Shopping.com ROI?

Nathan — Tue, 18 May 2010 12:29:31 +0000

For some time now, the shopping.com comparison shopping site just hasn’t converted well for my own retail sites, or those of many of our clients and friends. Shopping.com can provide great traffic to your site, no doubt. But quality has been lacking (I am talking about Australia’s shopping.com portal, but this may apply internationally as [...]

So, Magento to eBay extension. Now it’s a reality… I bet Magento users will be interested in this! eBay has been a great platform for us, and so is Magento. Bringing them closer together is an interesting strategy, and for some of our websites, a Magento to eBay Extension would be great. Being long time [...]
