Build a Niche Store

What is a niche or BANS store?

Well, before we answer that question your first question has to be "How can I make money from a niche store?"

A Build niche store or BANS for short is made up of a set of PHP scripts that dynamically connect to EBay products 24 hours a day. This happens without any updates or daily maintenance tasks on your part. Basically the BANS scripts setup your site and you choose what categories you want to display then add in your ebay partner id then your up and running.

You will want to pick a domain name containing your keywords of the products you are trying to sell to optimize your SEO rankings.

But will Build niche store actually make you any money?

Let's start by dismissing all the hype that others spread stating that they are pulling in 100k a month from bans. It will not happen. Look at things this way and you WILL make money from build niche store shops.

1) Research your market and keywords. Use ONLY targeted keywords and use this tool: http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com

2) Add you targeted keywords to your store
3) Include your main keywords in your title and in the shop header text ie. My Apple IPod Store
4) Social bookmark your shop in within 'digg','stumbleupon' and 'del.icio.us'
5) if you have some cash also split test your main 2 sets of keywords using pay per click (PPC) in google. Only set 6-10 cents max for your testing oer click.
6) find some ranked forums of the goods you are selling and create accounts and add some good content with links in your signature. NOTE: DO NOT SPAM THEM. Add some value in your comments.
7) once your first site is setup... Find your next niche and repeat the process.

This is how to make money off bans.. check these figures

you have 10 stores running that make you 10 dollars each minimum a day.
Thats 100 dollars, multiply this by 30 days a month gives us 3000 dollars a month.
take this over a year and this now gives 36,000 dollars for 10 sites.

You build up a portfolio of say 40 sites over a period of 6-8 months and potentially your bringing in $144,000 a year with no stock or any customer support to provide.

A win.. win.. Situation I call it.
