Looking for testers - New feature on DailyDollarDeal.com
January 2nd, 2009
I’m looking for beta testers to test a plugin which will allow website owners to display dollar deals on their own web site.
In other words, if you own a baby website, you can add baby-related items found on eBay that are $1 or less.
This is a nice way to attract visitors as they will return to your blog every day to see the latest deals. Better yet, you will receive a commission for every item sold.
Please email me if you wish to test/participate in this new feature as it is currently not available to the general public.

Daily Dollar Deal featured on CNET’s Cheapskate
October 22nd, 2008
I had quite a (good) surprise when I noticed a huge spike on my Google Analytics account today. It’s just that CNET mentionned about DailyDollarDeal on their "Cheapskate" site .
Needless to say that I was quite happy to receive such an unexpected flow of visitors and I was even happier that the site stayed up all the time.
If you haven’t visited Daily Dollar Deal, I invite you to do so !

There’s more to come but that’s a secret

Encan Bougon’s offspring
August 29th, 2008
Encan Bougon just launched recently and there’s a lot of interest already. Branchez-vous mentioned about it on their homepage so this is a great honor for me. But in order to accommodate everyone, I decided to launch an international version under the name "DailyDollarDeal.com ". To be honest, I was surprised that the domain name wasn’t taken
I have more ideas in mind for this side project so keep visiting!

New eBay search tool for bargain hunters
August 22nd, 2008
"Encan Bougon " is a system that allows you to watch last minute auctions on eBay and for which the current price is below one dollar.
Why? Well the reason behind all this is that many auctions go unsold because they have typos and thus are not found by people. A lot of sellers are pretty bad at making their item "marketable" and have very bad title. And we humans are bad buyers. Most people only browse title, they don’t actually open the item to read the whole description. So a market of bad sellers and bad buys creates an opportunity for good buyers!
I started this tool sometime ago for my own personal use. I use it all the time to look for cheap baby/kids stuff and of course geek stuff. Instead of going on eBay, I use this tool to scan for products. You’d be surprised what goes unsold on eBay!
So I decided to convert my own research tool to everyone. This is a great tool for bargain hunters and although the site is only in French now (Canada, France and Belgium), it will be available for all eBay sites. Try it out and if you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know!
