BANS (Build a Niche Store) Makes Money

Hi everyone, hope you are having a great week so far. I haven’t posted to this blog in a few days so I would like to give you an update on my BANS(Build a Niche Store) sites.

First of all, my BANS sites are making money. Yeah! So far this month I’ve made just over $91. It’s not bad considering the fact that I haven’t done much advertising. Since I started my BANS sites I’ve made a total of $219.16. I started my first site in April. So I would say that yes, BANS does work.

I’m sure that if I spent more time promoting my sites that I would probably be making more, but considering two hundred bucks for not doing much work is not bad.

My advertising has consisted of Craigslist ads and writing a few articles and submitting them to article directories. The Craigslist ads have given my sites direct hits to certain products that I’ve advertised, and the articles have given some of my sites backlinks. Both have generated some traffic.

Here’s the link to Build a Niche Store (a.k.a. BANS) in case you need it.

I’m currently working on another income stream that I will be telling you about in the next post.

Thank you for reading my blog everyone. I hope you have a great day.

Thinking of Starting a Home Business?

Hello, I hope you have had a nice week.  Today’s post I’m going to get you thinking about a home business.  Is it for you?  You be the judge. 

Starting a home business is not as simple as one may think.  Before you just jump in to it, there are many things that need to be considered.

First of all, what type of business do you have in mind?  Do you want the traditional brick and mortar business, or do you want to do business strictly online?  Perhaps you want to do both.  This is one of the first steps to consider. 

Second, do you want to sell products or services?  If you decide that you want to sell products, then what products will you sell?  Do you have an idea where you will get these products? 

Third, who will you sell these products or services to?  You need to figure out your target market.  Will they be children?  Singles?  Parents? Students? Seniors?, see what I’m saying. 

Think about some of these things before you decide to go into business.  I will be discussing more on this topic in future posts.  But in the meantime, start thinking about some of these things and what direction you would like to take.
