I recently launched Online Daily Deals, a data syndication site that displays ebay.com’s daily deals in a clean format. Every day ebay.com offers daily deals on various products, these products can have up to 80% off suggested retail price. So this makes it very attractive to online shoppers while creating content on the fly.

Two months ago, EPN was giving away $25,000 to the best daily deals site. I didn’t hear about the promotion till very late in the competition. However this gave me an idea..

What if I could take the data supplied by ebay.com and slurp it into WordPress using a plugin?

Here is what I came up with.

ebay.com offered a XML feed of the daily deals data in XML fomat, from this I create my XML file containing the days deals. Every 6 hours I slurp in this data using WP-o-Matic, creating posts of the various products offered by ebay.
