The #1 way to make money with a website: BANS (Build a Niche Site)
BANS (Build a Niche Store) is a website builder that allows you to easily create an EBay Store based on a niche topic. If you are non-technical, it may be a bit tricky to impliment, but the installation documentation is very thorough and the technical support is very good. BANS allows a non-programmer to create a website which encourages your visitors to buy from Ebay. To learn more about BANS , watch this video:
What is an EBay Store?
An EBay store is a website that showcases the EBay categories and items you specify.
What is a Niche Topic?
A niche topic is something that you are interested in, have knowledge about, and - to pass a cliche - you are passionate about. Do you like to garden? Perhaps this can be your niche topic and your EBay items can be specific plants, or gardening tools, or ceramic plant pots. You purchase BANS one time and have the ability to build as many stores as you want.
How Does BANS and EBay Work Together?
The BANS software automatically incorporates a feed that "grabs" the products - based on your desired niche - and puts them in your website.
Start Making Money With Your BANS Website
1) First and foremost: Apply as an affiliate to EBay. Do not buy BANS until you have been accepted as an EBay affiliate - for whatever reason, not everyone is accepted as an EBay affiliate. Important: To sign up as an EBay affiliate, go to the EBay website, scroll to the very bottom of the EBay home page, click on the "Affiliates" link at the bottom, then follow the registration instructions.2) After you are approved by EBay as an affiliate, purchase BANS. Follow the installation documentation provided by BANS.
3) You need to have a Web Host account. The documentation included with BANS works with HostGator, however, any host will work (although the steps may be slightly different). Typical cost of a web host account: $100.00 per year
4) You need to purchase a DOMAIN NAME. A domain is something like: www.your selected name.com, where "yourselectedname" is whatever you want. It seems the most popular place to buy a domain is
www.GoDaddy.com
(they often have sales), although where you purchase your domain is up to you. Important: After you make your domain name change, you will have to change the nameservers to that of your web host. The nameserver information will be supplied to you at the time you purchase a host account by the host company. The nameservers are changed within your GoDaddy account (or whichever domain purchasing company you selected). Typical cost of a domain name: $10.00 per year.
What Technical Skills are Required ?
You will have to have some ability to market your site - you need to get your site known to people.
How Are You Paid ? How Do You Make Money ?
You are paid a share of EBay's revenue, directly from EBay. You make money with your BANS online store by receiving a "health share" of the revenue generated by each sale made through your website. EBay, the leading on-line auction site, pays affiliates monthly. They have a full range of reporting tools to track your revenue.
Can You Make Real Money With BANS ?
Many people do, and it is considered a "passive income". Once you put in the initial work creating your online store, you can almost let it do its own thing. A BANS site will automatically update with relevant EBay items, based on your niche. Think of it this way: Your BANS / EBay store will pay for itself within a few months.
