Niche Marketing Just Got Easier

Recently, I’ve been playing about with a great web-tool called Build a Niche Store, which gives you a great opportunity to piggy-back on to the Ebay affiliate scheme. Obviously, you can sign to become an Ebay affiliate at the drop of the hat, however the time is then spent on all the marketing and the website building – but this piece of software does that all for you!

Check out Abbey-Models, it’s a website which was created in no time – and it lists a number of Ebay auctions on the site from a chosen category, in this case, collectible cars. On this occasion, I have manually gone in to the code and ensured that only the sellers own listings actually feature on this site – but the whole purpose of the software is to embrace all sellers, and list categories and sub-categories on a niche subject. Your affiliate ID is inserted into the URL that sends the user off to Ebay, and then you gain commission on every Ebay item which is subsequently purchased.

However the beauty in this really revolves around the fact that the EBay listings on your page are shown as HTML and therefore searchable by the search engines. A lot of Ebay’s own scripts that they offer for affiliate marketing come in the form of Javascripts, which do not do the user any favours in terms of optimising their pages.

Similarly, a plethora of neatly worded articles can be easily imported in to the site, and, together with an intelligent Adwords campaign, building plenty of incoming links for natural SEO, this would provide an instant hit. The success stories I’ve already heard from this are staggering, so it is definitely worth checking out!
