Well, I discovered a nifty tool called the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;MisSpell Generator&lt;/span&gt; that helps you do just that!  I just type in an item I'm looking for and in a few seconds, I have a list of possible ebay listings with variations of misspellings of the product key words that I just entered.  Many times, the listing has been "lost" in the shuffle with few or no bids, and just waiting for me to snatch it up!  Below the misspelled listings are the actual correctly spelled ones for easy reference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;And having a real attention-getter on your listings...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;....another unique program I've been playing with is called &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Talking Auctions&lt;/span&gt;.  It's an adventure writing little scripts and putting audio on my ebay auctions and on my About Me page. It's easy and an almost instantaneous process and does not require any kind of audio player download on the part of the visitor. You can have lots of fun with it; refer others to links and products, besides giving info about your listing or about yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The really great thing is I can make money TWO ways...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;... besides spicing up my listings or finding those obscure misspelled listings for more ebay sales, I can also offer these same products to others through &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;affiliate programs&lt;/span&gt;, which means if someone buys the product, I get a little piece of the action!  Also, if someone signs up through my link to offer the products to others, I receive additional compensation!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm still learning about affiliate programs, but it seems like a great way to find fun products and then to make money using them and referring others to them, too!  I'll talk more about them in future posts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll tell you about a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;little shortcut&lt;/span&gt; putting those extras in your listings in my next posting!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23037905-114093154695896262?l=thetreasuredetective.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thetreasuredetective.blogspot.com/feeds/114093154695896262/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23037905&amp;postID=114093154695896262' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23037905/posts/default/114093154695896262'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23037905/posts/default/114093154695896262'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thetreasuredetective.blogspot.com/2006/02/techniques-to-leverage-ebay-sales.html' title='Techniques to leverage ebay sales'/><author><name>FL Pedaler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='25' src='http://pic19.picturetrail.com/VOL1081/4229164/8931324/124402709.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
