I sold template-o-matic.com and relinquished control of it over the weekend. You can still find the same free auction templates here.

I’ve spent the past couple of weeks tweaking AuctionLink for use by international eBay sellers.  Besides eBay.com, AuctionLink now works for people or businesses who sell on the Canadian, Australian, and UK eBay sites.

What is AuctionLink and Why Should I Care?

AuctionLink is shortened, easy-to-remember web address that returns your current eBay listings.  It makes it easy to include a link to all of your current listings in your e-mail sig files and Twitter tweets.

Here’s an example of an AuctionLink:

http://AuctionLink.to/buy

Even more significant is AuctionLink’s potential to help your Listing Performance Score – a key factor in getting to the front page of the Best Match search results.

A Listing Performance Score is calculated by dividing the number of sales generated for a particular listing by the number of times that listing has appeared (impressions) in the eBay search results.  Listings appearing on AuctionLink are not considered as generating an impression.  So, the more sales you can generate while keeping your impressions to a minimum will help your rankings in the Best Match search and sort calculations.

CNET news has a list of 15 online image editing services highlighting and comparing significant features of each.  I’ve provided links to the free online photo editors below.

I’ve got admit that I haven’t used any of these.  I’m still partial to Paint.net (review) which is free and easy to use (both important characteristics for me).  However, from the comments on the original post, pixlr.com has got a lot of fans. 

Post your thoughts about any of these in the comments section.

So, if you’re looking for an online photo editor to spruce up your eBay images, give one of these free services a try:

One of the things I had on my list of things to do last week was sign up for Auctiva and post a review on the free auction management service.

Over the weekend, some of Auctiva’s servers were infected with a Trojan Horse virus and was apparently infecting users computers with malware.

So, once again, procrastination pays off for me.  Looks like you will have to wait a while longer before I play around with Auctiva and post a review here.  I’ll stick with good old Template-O-Matic for a while longer.
