spike1 · #24 10-24-2007

the problem i have with creating a website is the kind of items i sell. how am i going to list 3000-5000 individual auto parts and drive any traffic to it? i don't evem know what kind of cars most of them fit. i already have a domain name. i use that to forward to my ebay store and host images of the parts.

i was using diffent computers for each account. htey are all over 30 days but none were selling yet. i had satellite internet and could not get the ip address changed. i don't remember all the email addresses and passwords. they were on my main computer at home. no big deal. that's why we got a chris hanson right?

donate to the cause chris

Just an example.

You can make it a long term project if you really wanted to do it. It's hard creating a website, and if your supplies aren't stable or organized it can be even harder. It is a good idea though to make it a long term project.

**aspkin** · #27 10-24-2007

Might as well create another account while you have access to a new IP. O,o

spike1 · #28 10-24-2007

yeah just to keep me busy it would be a good idea

spike1 · #29 10-24-2007

your right. this hotel might be giving my laptop a new ip.

**aspkin** · #30 10-24-2007

Most of the time I'm correct… Just take everything I say as fact. Lol jk

spike1 · #31 10-24-2007

same ip. must be thenetwork wifi card in my laptop. it's not the kind that connects to the internet itself. it's a wifi so i have to use someone else's network.

factuate me some money making ideas then aspkin! lol!

time to go walk one of my neighbor's dogs before he poops in the hotel room!

**aspkin** · #32 10-24-2007

That's weird the Ip should have changed. You're 50 miles from you home.. so you should be on a new network.

Affiliate programs make money! They take a bit of work though.

I added some eBay links in the blog part of this site, and made $50 so far today. Nice!

spike1 · #33 10-24-2007

maybe i have a network card that has it's own ip. it's a dell laptop and i am not really sure what all i had them put in it.

for the affiliate i need a website right? $50 a day is as good as a minimum wage job! get 2-3 things that bring in 50 a day and you're winning.

hey aspkin, is there anyway to html a couple of photos in a post? just in case people want to see what it looks like out here.

spike1 · #34 10-24-2007

thanks modee!

don't have tivo but i got dvr. it's good to have.

still stuck in the hotel. looks like we won't be able to check on the house until tomorrow.

aspkin you were right. again. *******. it is a different ip here. i was trippin

You can use img tags..

And you can work with affiliate programs without a website, but it's probably better that you have a website to work with.

Welcome back Spike, was getting worried about you myself.

TiVO is nice I agree, life sucked without it. BUT it makes watching more TV easier. Which is bad for making money online.

I'm right 99% of the time.

Spike1, I hope all your stuff is there then you get back.

spike1 · #39 10-26-2007

thanks vers0

heard from one of my neighbors that the road is cleared and we should be able to finally go home tomorrow. they were able to get to the house and said everything looks untouched. both sides of the local highway are burned and you can see where the fire was stopped at the top of the hill to our area. thank god for those helicopters!

the answering machine is finally working so the power must be back on.

i have so much stuff to ship out, can't wait to get there so i can get it all out. then i have to empty the fridge. wonder what that is going to smell like?

**aspkin** · #40 10-26-2007

Emm, no power fridge smell.

It could taste like burning...

spike1 · #41 10-27-2007

no offense taken. i will have to search out that post later when i have time.

i am finally back home tonight with the electricity ON. just got the internet back up. threw out all the food in the fridge then went and bought more.

i would like to thank everyone for the pm's and good words.

bid thanks to "ebayhateluv" for your offers of assistance. it sounds like you are going to have alot of good info for this site!

i have a couple of photos of the local damage. if anyone is interested i will try to post a link to them or something.

**aspkin** · #42 10-27-2007

Post them up!

spike1 · #43 10-27-2007

ok let me see if i can do this right. these are photos from our trip in to the house. first time we had been there since monday morning. tomorrow i will go around the neighborhood and take some more photos.

**aspkin** · #44 10-27-2007

The last one is a really good shot.

It looks like it was shot under a filter.. but the trucks are just really dirty.
