If you sell services, downloadable software, ebooks or other intangibles through PayPal, you should understand how various types of disputes and fraud can affect you. The rules, and the balance of power in various types of disputes within PayPal’s system, are very different when you don’t sell trackable physical goods.

I am writing up the announcement e-mails to send to my lists tonight announcing it: w3roi is open for business.
Even if you’re not looking for a new way to track your online advertising and get more sales out of your advertising spend, if you read my blog, you’re probably involved with online business in [...]
It’s been almost three months since I decided to create and sell an ad tracking service (in progress), and I’m still probably a few weeks away from being able to find out if anyone wants to use it. There’s so much involved in launching a new service beyond just writing the code:
Plan and Develop the [...]
I have put this site I developed as a quick project in 2007 up for sale on the SitePoint marketplace. I’ve begun work on a new site, another subscription service like W3Counter, and figure this is a good time to sell off some sites I haven’t been putting any work into but have some value.
I have too much on my plate right now. With WP Review Site extremely successful, my VisitorBoost customers, and my graduate classes killing me with projects and midterms, I don’t have time to support this as well.
FeedLines is up for auction on the SitePoint marketplace. That’s the site and the script it sells:
“Web 2.0″ sites always have better maintenance screens when they go offline than big companies. PayPal smashed some red text in my face about site unavailability, while Lijit gives you a video to watch:
WP Review Site continues to sell well, enough that I spent the time to give it a proper payment form instead of just a PayPal redirect. Those that can’t or choose not to use PayPal can now pay directly by credit card. By several requests, WPRS is now available in a multi-site license ($199) and [...]
WP Review Site is selling even better than FeedLines already… it’s nice to put 4 figures in your pocket for a bit of coding work. Some of the customers have already sent me the URLs of their sites so I could see the plugin in action! In other news, I made another site with [...]
WP Review Site, the plugin that turns a WordPress blog into a powerful review site engine, is now available for purchase at the new wpreviewsite.com. If you want to run a site like Award Winning Hosts, allowing users to submit reviews and ratings, check it out. It’s also a great WP affiliate plugin.
The script alone has sold three copies in the first day, not bad for a few hours’ work.
I’ve gotta say it feels good to make money somewhere other than Visitor Boost, which is a nightmare to manage and never feels like stable income despite its performance.
