January 11th 2011
I am looking for any web application or template which can do something like Ebay. it means you have something for sale (which the product is related to our website speciality). then you come to our site , create an account and post your ad. then others can come and see it and if intersted can contact you and buy it. is there any template for that on the web? or anyone knows what I should exactly look for on the web?

You need to create a database which hold the customer information (contact for username/password/billing extra), and you need the 2nd table for the items description posted date etc…. you should check out
As for template, you can use something very basic and nothing fancy…. simple CGI post/get function should let you complete this type of transcation.
However, what are you going to make money from? It will cost you to pay for the web hosting and data transmission. Also, how are you going to market your website. Think about those, if this is profit generating, then you can let some existing company to do the whole design and maintain for you.

Basically you’d create a website or webspage to do this for you. Then you need to advertise that page like through here:
Advertising and Marketing
Search The World – Website Index
It’s rarely an instant return on the Internet. You need your website coming up relevant to what people “search for” on the Internet. It takes time to get placement in the right places within the Internet and if you’re listed in the right category of searches you stand a better chance of returns. The following is one of the better ways.
For a small charge you can have a “Permanent” website advertisement placed in an index such as this in a choice of around 750 categories to target your business trade.
A Permanent listing means getting permanent indexing by search engines.
This will raise your website profile and increase its chances of extra sales because this site is indexed by the search engines placing your site within “public searches”.
The advantage of a site like this is that you don’t have to update your listing again.
For a permanent ongoing promotion:
This will only cost you $6.00 for a permanent listing that will eventually get picked up in search engine searches. You can also get a much higher profile permanent advertisement as well for $20.00. You never have to list or pay with them again.
I found free advertising sites don’t work very well but this one off payment site does.
If you don’t believe me type in “search-the-world.com” into the Yahoo search box and you’ll see thousands of links returned. This site really works and its probably the best kept secret around!
Search The World Articles
By using their new free articles site:
You can add articles about products, services or things you know about and add your website url details at the bottom of each. And these get picked up by RSS feeds and get distributed through other sites and through the Internet. You can add as many articles as you like for free. It’s all Free advertising and marketing for you!
Search The World Free Stores & Auctions
This is a Free store and auction site from them:
You get your own shopping store where you can sell either by auction or just like a regular store at “Buy Now” prices. You get your own store Url which you then need to promote yourself to get more customers etc. Promote your store Url just like you would any other form of business and build up your customer base from there. You can use Paypal. Works just like Ebay but you pay no selling fees and its all 100% free to use.
