The BANS author has built an awesome system for automatically creating nice webstores around Ebay’s affiliate program. I wish I had thought of this one. Ebay is rather generous with its commissions and you could earn a lot of dough if you have a busy site.
UPDATE: See a live BANS store: http://www.moziface.com/
That is a store I tossed together using a Wordpress theme for the colors and header image. From start to finish it took about an hour.
The Build a Niche Store program is a complete solution, including software, templates, support that you need to create multiple Ebay affiliate stores, each with its own niche. Here’s some text from their home page:
So What Is BANS?
BANS (Build A Niche Store) is a website builder which enables you to create a network of traffic pulling, money making niche websites focused around the eBay affiliate opportunity.
You simply choose your niche…build and develop your site…promote…make money…rinse and repeat.
That’s the system and that’s exactly what Build A Niche Store enables you to do!
But beware! More and more of our customers are reporting that they have become “BANS Addicted”.
Symptoms include:
- Obsessive thinking about building an eBay affiliate empire,
- Absenteeism from work due to the need to “get the next store built”,
- A refusal to sleep,
- Hyperactivity when logging into Commission Junction to check their sales stats.

The BANS and eBay Combination
Each eBay marketplace has an affiliate program which enables you to promote eBay listed products in exchange for a healthy share of eBay’s revenue for each sale that you refer.
The 12 eBay marketplaces that BANS currently supports (Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Spain, France, India, Italy, Netherlands, Singapore, United Kingdom, United States) hold a combined product inventory of over 60 million products.
These 60+ Million products cater to just about every imaginable niche – from fishing rods to antique Chinese vases, engagement rings to Ipods and it’s all these products which you can control and then market using BANS.
As an eBay affiliate your aim is to connect relevant internet browsers through to relevant eBay products and your BANS built niche stores are the medium through which you can achieve this…

The more niche stores that you build the more people you will transfer to eBay and the more eBay affiliate commissions you will make.
Once you have installed BANS you build and develop your store from inside your admin panel.
Below are the screen-prints of the different parts of this admin panel with a short description of the functions of each part.
Login
This is the “entrance” page to your niche store admin panel. When you first log in you will do so using the default username and password provided by the software.

Home
Here you can see the home page of your admin panel which introduces you to the software and highlights some key features.

Security
To make sure that your admin panel is not accessible to anyone but you, once inside you can set your own username and password which is recoverable (should you forget it) by email.

Setup
This part of the admin panel is where you build your store. Here you can choose which niche you want to build your store around, input your affiliate ids and decide on how you want to display your stores products.

Template
The template area enables you to choose which template you want to display your store inside and also allows you to modify it and upload your own store logo.
Here you can either use one of the 9 different template layouts that we provide with the package or alternatively upload and select your own.

Ads
In order to give you additional ways of monetizing the visitors that your store receives you can use the Ads section which enables you to place supplemental ads to the left, right, above or below your store product listings.
Current BANS users include everything from contextual ads like Google AdSense and Yahoo to Pay Per Lead banners found in affiliate networks like Commission Junction.

Store Pages - Automatically built based on eBay category choice
Your store pages section makes up your store navigation which Build A Niche Store automatically creates when you choose your target market.
You can then edit these pages, delete those store pages which you do not want and create new store pages to display more products related to your niche.

Edit Store Pages
Every page within your store (whether automatically or manually created) can be edited so that you can change the title, keyword and description tags, add content above the products on the page using the built in WYSIWYG HTML editor and modify the URL address and page name for better keyword targeting.

Content Pages
This area enables you to develop your site from a niche store (a collection of related eBay products contained in a store format) into a niche website - which contains relevant information as well as relevant products.
The more pages you add the more keywords your site will target in the search engines, the more visitors it will receive and the better their experience will be.

Edit Content Pages
Every content page you create can be edited so that you can change the title, keyword and description tags, add more content using the built in WYSIWYG HTML editor and modify the URL address and page name for better keyword targeting.
