My First Build a Niche Store (a.k.a. BANS) update

April 25, 2008

Well it’s been a few days since my last post and I know some of you are wondering what’s going on. I’ve been optimizing my BANS stores and trying to generate some more traffic. It seems like traffic has slowed down tremendously on my stores. I haven’t quite figured out why. I’ve heard about the Google “sandbox effect” and wonder if that’s what’s going on with my sites. Either way I have generated at total of $39.04 so far. I started with one BANS store and over the course of 1 month I set up 7 more stores, so I have 8 stores in all.

As far as my sales, they didn’t start to appear until about 2 weeks ago. I know that Ebay recently changed from Commission Junction to Ebay Partner Network to handle their affiliate accounts. So maybe the change over had something to do with it. Either way, I was happy to see some sales. I actually had sales for about a week straight, during which I thought the ball was starting to roll for me. But then for the last 3 days, I’m showing no reported earnings. Also the number of visitors is way down, almost to a crawl.

So I’m spending more time writing articles and submitting them, and using social bookmarking such as Stumbleupon, getting backlinks, and creating new unique content on some of my pages. I’m also spending a lot of time trying to find other legitimate ways to make some money online. Since it’s best not to have all of your eggs in one basket. I also sold an article, which was fun. But I’ll write about that in a future post

So if any of you want to sign up with BANS, it’s not too late to get started, you can take this journey with me. I’ll be here if you need some support. Don’t feel like you need a lot of experience either. I didn’t really have any experience before I started this. I’ve learned a lot along the way and you will too. Before I started this my internet experience was limited, but I must tell you that I’ve learned a lot along the way. I believe if there’s a will there’s a way. Anyway, I’m having a great time with this.

My Build a Niche Store (a.k.a. BANS) Income

April 17, 2008

In case you are unfamiliar with the Build a Niche Store craze, then maybe you should consider hopping on board and make some money online, as I am doing.

Build a Niche Store is also known as BANS.  Basically, BANS is a storefront which has products for sale currently on Ebay.  I know it sounds confusing, but BANS is a website builder in which allows you to choose a niche, develop your own website, and promote products, and earn money.   As an ebay affiliate, you can promote Ebay products in exchange for a healthy share of Ebay’s revenue for each sale.   

Sound intimidating?  Well it doesn’t have to be.  I know that if I can do it, then I know you can too.   You don’t have to be an expert at anything.   I’m not very far into the whole BANS thing yet, but I can say that I’ve already made money.  I will be posting regularly regarding this topic and other interesting topics, so stay tuned.
