Build A Niche Store (BANS)

April 8, 2008

Build A Niche StoreOne of the most difficult things for most beginning marketers to overcome is just getting started. Well, if you could build your own online store with no products of your own, no packaging, no shipping, and you could be in business today, would that get your attention? Build a Niche Store (BANS) is one of the fastest and easiest ways I know to start your own online business. I use BANS myself so if you’re interested in learning more about this great site builder then follow this link:

Hundreds of thousands of people are earning a full or part-time income from home selling through ebay. However, that means searching for products to sell, writing ads, and maintaining an inventory, in addition to packaging and shipping and ebay seller fees. Sure, you could locate a wholesaler and have your items drop-shipped. But, the competitiveness of the business means it’s difficult to find quality wholesalers or drop-shippers that you can trust and still make a profit.

With Build a Niche Store, there’s no need to worry about running out of inventory, no need to pack or ship anything and no worrying about how you’re going to get paid. If you can cut & paste and edit plain text, then you can master BANS in no time.

WHAT IT DOES

Build a Niche Store creates an instant ebay affiliate site populated with auction listings for thousands of products. You simply find an ebay category you like, enter the category number into BANS and your site is ready to start earning commissions. But, you’re not limited to just ebay. Your BANS site can be monitized with Google AdSense ads, related vendor ads, or even your own products.

HOW IT WORKS

BANS is a script and not a desktop software program so you will need to obtain a domain name and hosting for your new site. Once those are in place you simply upload BANS to your server, click on install, and you’re ready to build your site. By simply entering a few details into the set-up screen and clicking a button, your site will be built automatically.

TARGET AUDIENCE

The program is well-suited for beginners and experts alike. In addition to the included site templates, BANS is completely customizable so no two sites are alike. And, with several million products to choose from you can build an almost unlimited number of sites. Once you’ve read through the manual, BANS claims you can have a store up and running in about 10 minutes. You are promised a prefessional looking web site that can start earning you income the same day. But let’s take a look at the top 10 features of Build a Niche Store as taken from their own web site.

FEATURES+BENEFITS

#1. It’s A Proven Money Making Concept

BANS has been selling for over a year now and in that time there have been many success stories reported across the web where people ARE making an additional income stream from the eBay affiliate – BANS combination. Why spend your money and time on a money making project that has not been proven?

#2. An Inexpensive Way to Get Started Online

For a one time fee you get the BANS website builder software, the BANS user manual, an unlimited domain license, professional and easily customizable template layouts, access to the BANS member area and free updates for life.

#3. The eBay Affiliate Opportunity Is Huge

It’s only recently that the eBay affiliate program is beginning to be properly explored by the mainstream “make money online” community and it will be many years before it has been properly understood and exploited. No other affiliate program provides so large a product inventory, such an established brand name and a high affiliate commission structure like eBay does. With BANS this opportunity is now completely open to you.

#4. BANS Builds Real Search Engine Friendly Websites

Many website building software applications build sub-standard websites which border on being search engine spam. However, with BANS you have the ability to build a website that is professional looking, content rich and search engine friendly as any other website building platform. In addition, you have the added benefit of a built in means of making money from your site visitors – the eBay listed products.

#5. BANS Gives You an Easy Way to Begin

The biggest problem an aspiring internet marketer faces is information overload forcing you into committing to too many projects / ideas at once. You end up trying to move in different directions simultaneously when you could see much better returns if you picked one path and committed to it. The eBay affiliate opportunity is large enough and profitable enough to warrant your focus (we have been making money from it for several years) and with BANS you have a system that you can commit to, master and profit from for years to come.

#6. BANS Teaches You to Succeed Online

While building, developing and marketing your own BANS stores you will learn and develop many skills that are transferable into other online money making ventures you may decide to pursue. What other program allows you to learn skills like: installing scripts, creating professional and attractive websites, understanding niches, carrying out keyword research and SEO, establishing effective marketing channels, converting site visitors into buyers… As you dig into BANS and the eBay affiliate opportunity these are all the things that you will be doing and once learned, these skills (which can’t be bought) are yours to apply to anything else you commit to online.

#7. The “Niche Store” Concept Is Still Evolving

Despite our involvement with the eBay affiliate program for several years we are still very much learning how to best tap into it. As we come up with new ideas we combine these, with the feedback and feature requests we get from BANS members, and we then add these extra capabilities to BANS. You are reading this at a time when BANS is very much at its early stages and there will be many new things to come all of which you receive for free as a BANS owner.

#8. You Can Build As Large A Website Portfolio As You Like

While many scripts and software applications limit you to using them once, BANS breaks the mould and enables you to target as many niche markets with as many niche stores as you want to operate. We want BANS to work for you and rather than charging per site that you build you pay one fee and can build as large a portfolio as you like. Many BANS users have growing networks of stores and it is the unlimited license that you receive with BANS which reduces your development costs to an absolute minimum.

#9. Support Is Second To None

We pride ourselves on having a support structure that many of our customers often comment on. Countless hours have been invested into the BANS member forum by ourselves and committed users so that regardless of your website building / affiliate marketing experience there is a place you can go to get the help and advice you need. Many of our customers have stated that the forum access alone is worth the one time fee. It contains over 25,000 posts and covers everything from troubleshooting to choosing a niche, feedback on your store to traffic generation techniques.

#10. It’s Addicting And Fun To Use

This is another thing we pride ourselves on – having created a product that not only works exactly as advertised but is also addictive and fun to use. BANS has been built to be as user friendly as possible and the features of the software, combined with the eBay product inventory, gives you literally millions of options in terms of which niches you choose to target and how you develop your stores. We’ve been involved with countless money making projects. Some we’ve enjoyed, some we haven’t – if you can’t enjoy building an income you’ll find it very difficult to stick with it and BANS makes building niche websites as enjoyable as it can be.

One of the key reasons I like Build A Niche Store is its ease of use. The manual is presented in a logical step-by-step flow for getting your first site running as quickly and easily as possible.  I also like its built-in flexibility.  As I’ve already mentioned, BANS is completely customizable. You can add your own header graphic, change the complete color scheme, and utilize the different template layouts to create a site that is uniquely you own.

Despite it’s simplicity, complete beginners may struggle with using BANS at first. Although the program comes with a detailed user manual, there is a slight learning curve when it comes to choosing and buying a domain name and getting a hosting account set up. However, those obstacles are overcome with the excellent video tutorials available at many hosting providers.

Another minor complaint is the tools recommended in the manual. In order to upload your site to a hosting account you will need to understand and use an FTP software program. The ftp program recommended in the user manual has a 30-day free trial and then you must buy it. (I’m guessing Build A Niche Store is an affiliate of the recommended program.) In my opinion, there are better programs available on the web for free.

As I have previously noted, there is a slight learning curve when first using BANS. Although Build a Niche Store contributes only a small portion of my online income, the sites I’ve built with this program continue to grow and provide a regular stream of commissions. BANS does an excellent job of delivering on it’s promises in both functionality and usability.

So, would I recommend BANS?  Yes!  Get a copy soon.  Because if you’ve been struggling to find a method of starting an online business of your own, I haven’t found a program yet that is easier or faster to use. In fact, I found 5 complete beginners who have never built a web site before and taught them how to use BANS to start their first online business. And, if they can do it, so can you.

Lastly, I’ve been using BANS for several months now and all I can say is the program works as advertised. If you’re interested in seeing whether BANS will work for you, visit Build A Niche Store for more information.
