There has been a lot of buzz about the Build A Niche Store (BANS) software. If you’re not familiar with BANS it’s software for developing affiliate sites using eBay. So you can easily create eBay stores in as many niches as you want. You get a commission for each sale plus $25 for each sign up eBay gets..
I’ve been hearing a lot of things about BANS some good, some bad but I really see a potential here. The prospect of setting up multiple niche sites and than generate passive income from seems like a great opportunity.
Although I’m focusing more on creating my own products now like Niche Podcasting, affiliate marketing is still part of my business model. I’m an affiliate marketer at heart. But it takes a lot of work and effort setting up niche sites. It seems BANS can really stream line the process.
Since it’s so easy to setup your BANS store if one niche site doesn’t do as well you move on to the next. Once you pay for the BANS software your only expense will be the cost of the domain name for your new BANS site. I know there will be other expenses like driving traffic to those sites via PPC or whatever other methods but that is stuff I’m already doing for my affiliate marketing websites. If BANS can speed up the process it’s a big plus. I also like the idea of having a living site constantly updated with new products without me having to lift a finger.
I had been looking at DataFeeds but BANS really seems to simplify the process. So I’ll be giving it a try. I won’t start until mid-April. I’m off to Scotland (yeah) on Wednesday the 26th and I’m finishing writing my second e-book (more on that later). But I have decided BANS will be my next project.
I will be blogging my expirences with BANS under the “BANS” category so stay tuned.
