Do you want to customize your ning network?

I’ve been doing $45 Customer Header Banners for Ning Networks for awhile now, but as I work on my own social networks (Black Business Women Online) and the (Black Moms Club), I seem to be getting more and more requests to do Custom Ning Websites from other network creators.

I haven’t added this service to my current web design packages, so I decided to post my price quote on sistasense for those of you who are interested in my work. Depending on what you want (common requests are often custom color designs and headers), I can give you a quote or you can take advantage of my all inclusive Ning Network Customization Package: $450. This package includes:

  1. Custom Header Banner
  2. Customize Network Graphics: Header, Customize Front Page, Setup Tabs, Color Formatting, side bar links
  3. Setup/ Design Pages Content (upto 6 pages, more pages require additional cost)
  4. A Banner Rotator (468×60, 728×90, 125×125,or 160×600)
  5. Create Graphics for 5 Group Pages
  6. Customize Network Settings: Setup Profile Questions (up to 12), Setup Forum Categories (up to 12)
  7. Any other Features: Quotes Available Upon Request

Paypal Vs 1Shopping Cart


I’ve been a paypal girl for over five years now, but as my business grows I realize that I need a more robust system. Some of my customers prefer to purchase directly from their credit cards for one. Another reason I wanted to try something new is that I am in the process of building my own affiliate program and I wanted a user-friendly affiliate management platform.

To date I’ve been using e-junkie to promote my Affiliate Products. I love e-junkie, as far as selling digital products, it’s one of the best low-cost marketing and ecommerce tools around. The downside is that e-junkie’s affiliate tools are limited to just being able to give affiliates their own unique link code, but they have to manually add the code to banners and text. That’s honestly a hassle for alot of my affiliates, especially the newbies who would prefer to just cut and paste code. SO I’ve evolved and decided to try 1Shopping cart.

I am currently using 1Shopping cart to setup my Affiliate Program, my subscription-based membership website, and also to sell my digital ecourses and ebooks (check out one of my eCourses). I love the fact that I got a free 30 day trial with 1Shopping cart to test out the services and now I am officially a member, so as I test it out I will post my thoughts (and be sure to ask me any questions about the service). 1Shopping cart also has other great features like the auto-responder and email marketing components, which I wish I knew about before because I already use what I believe is the best email marketing service around, but it would have been nice to 1stop shop and get all these features at one place.

Right now I like that I can use my paypal with 1shopping cart because I still love paypal. It’s like the best of both worlds, hopefully it stays that way!
