1. Most websites are fine. Some websites are on a blacklist, usually because the website owner tried to spam the forum long ago. Publishing the blacklist would kind of defeat the purpose of having the blacklist, since the goal is to block all possible links to, endorsements of or mention of those websites. All you can really do is try to find an alternative site with the same or similar information. Please DON'T try to make oblique references to the site, tell people to Google-search for site-specific terms, or otherwise try to avoid triggering the autocorrect filter in mentioning the site, as that will only make the site admins mad at your attempt to bypass the blacklist and likely see your whole post deleted.
2. You'll have to ask someone else about experience with selling, as I've rarely sold things. But feel free to ask questions in the appropriate subforums. Eg. ask questions about ebay in the ebay subforum.
3. For me as a moderator at least, there's a small icon in the icon bar on that "View Profile" page you get to by clicking on your forum username; it's shaped like a little speech bubble that says "HI". Click on it and you should see a list of all your posts. Failing that, there should be a "view unarchived posts" link in the menu titled "the basics", which should take you to the same list. I don't think either of those links are restricted to Moderators only?
4. I don't think there's a separate list of only threads you've started, as opposed to threads you've simply replied to. The "View Unarchived Topics" will list every thread you've started or participated in; you could then use your browser's page search function to find references to your username, and look for your username popping up in the "Author" column.

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
