Here’s the big lesson on the opening of the official WordPress Commercial Theme directory (also under WordPress Extend ): it’s possible to make money off a commercial theme while still having a GPL license, which in turn, means you’re supporting the WordPress philosophy of making everything accessible to everyone. While our directory is full of fantastic themes, sometimes people want to use something that they know has support behind it, and don’t mind paying for that. Contrary to popular

This is the beginning of what will surely become a multi-part series on creating niche websites using Wordpress as your vehicle. What I mean is that there is some money to be made by creating sites that cater to a very specific topic. Niche sites generally outperform sites that talk of a more general topic because the content is highly focused on only one topic and Search engines, mainly Google, like this. As an example of a niche site that I have created for this purpose, check out The Top

インターネットの決済サービスで世界大手の米ペイパルが、日本への事業参入を検討しているそうです。海外送金を銀行以外にも開放する資金決済法が成立する見通しになったためらしい。「新法によって可能になる範囲で、日本向けサービスを検討している」と表明しているそうですが。今までとどう何がかわるのか・・・。とにかく日本ではまだまだ認知度が低いので、まずはメジャーなECサイトが導入すれば普及するかもしれません。当方でもPayPal決済のQUICK CART miniというカートシステムがありますが、それとは別に実験でWordPressにペイパルカートシステムをつっこんでみました。元々海外製なので文字化け等の問題もありましたが何とか解決して大丈夫そうな感じです。せっかくなのでサイドバーにもカートを表示させてみました。 やはりケータイにも対応して欲しいところですね。セミナーの会費の徴収等はもってこいなので。ケータイで思い出したのですが最近は携帯キャリア決済なんてサービスもあるようでお客様が携帯電話で購入した代金を携帯電話の使用料と一緒にお支払いできるという、勝手サイトではできなかった事が今ではできるとは
