Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• 1.A Computer
• 2.A Desire to achieve success

1. Choose Your Country
   
   Your country choice will determine which specific ebay marketplace products you will be marketing.
   
   If you choose eBay.com then you will be creating niche websites focused around eBay.com listed products and will then be marketing them to online shoppers in the United States.
   
   If you choose the United Kingdom you will be doing the same for the eBay.co.uk marketplace and UK based shoppers and so forth.
2. Choose Your Niche
   
   With your target country chosen you then install BANS and once installed your first choice inside your new BANS admin panel is the niche you want to target.
   
   If you choose the golf category BANS will build a golf eBay affiliate store, the diamond rings category then a diamond ring eBay affiliate store.
   
   Straight out of the box your store will:
   
   Contain all of those products listed on eBay relevant to your chosen niche.
   Contain a sub-category navigation based on eBay’s hierarchical category structure.
   Have all the search features of the eBay marketplace.
   Have your eBay affiliate id embedded into each of the external product links to eBay.
   Be completely SEO friendly.
3. Develop Your New Website To “Match Your Market”
   
   With your basic store built next comes development…
   
   BANS is a complete content management system with the development features to match any professional website builder.
   
   The aim with this development stage is to “match your market” which means – make it feel like it’s related to your target niche (through design) and add width and depth to it through the Store Page and Content Page features.
   
   With a little bit of time spent inside your BANS admin panel you can transform your straight out of the box store into one which is themed to your niche and has store pages which target keywords that your market is actually using to find the products listed in your store.
   
   Once you get into content creation you can add as many new pages to your site as you are willing to write or get written. As with any website or blog, every new page you add targets more keywords in the search engines which means more targeted traffic and more eBay affiliate commissions.
   
   Again all of this development is done online and whilst logged into your BANS admin panel.

Tips & Warnings

• Market Your Website To Your Target Niche Once you’re “happy” with your new niche store it’s time to turn your attention towards marketing. If you’ve targeted golf then you want to attract golfers interested in purchasing specific pieces of golf equipment, if it’s a used motorcycle store that you’ve built then you’re looking for those people who are about to buy a new bike. By following a basic set of marketing principles including content creation, SEO, article marketing, forum marketing, Squidoo lenses, social bookmarking, link building, USFreeads and PPC you will soon be finding buyers for the products you have chosen to market and will be making a steady supply of eBay affiliate commissions.
