BANs Alternative

[ExpertForumGuy]

isn't there programs out there that allow you to create a niche online store by finding a commission junction affiliate/advertiser that lists their products individually

And it creates a store for you?

Does it exist? Just wondering, because I want to create a niche store without using BANS - if possible.

2.) Does BANS make people tons of money?

ok that's all
peace!

Many ppl out there use BANS and make NO money.

But there are also many people out there that have mdade hundreds t othousands off of their BANS store.

I have made about $120 or so off my single BANS store over the past 3 weeks.

You WONT make anything off BANS if you know little to nothing about traffic and optimization.

BANS will make the store for you... How well it will go? Is all up to you...

There a lot of BANS alternatives. You can even do it yourself using rss feeds.
Here are the few alternatives.
1. PHPBayPro
2.EshopBaby
...and some which I forgot the name. Just browse or use the search function of this forum and you will surely find some good alternatives.

Once you've got a parser up and running (magpie, lastrss, etc), you can create a store from just about any of the CJ advertisers that provide an RSS feed.

I'm not aware of any commercial scripts that can do this. But it's not incredibly difficult to do it yourself.

Is there a listing of stores at CJ that offer RSS feeds?? I'd like to work with a few other merchants with my parser.

Thanks!

Very True. If you don't know how to drive traffic to your sites, you won't make money.

peace!There is a product called Automatic Online Shop that does this via the CJ.com web services API. I don't know anything about it other than that it exists.

It would be pretty easy to build a BANS-like interface through the API but I don't know what the performance of their API is like or if they have limitations on the size of the data you can pull down at once.

This is a great question/thread as I hadn't considered other CJ advertisers as store potential. I do use BANS and find it well worth the price, but it is limited to eBay only. Now I might think about what other stores related to CJ to set up...

The link for Automatic Online Shop is http://automaticonlineshop.com/

As I have indicated, I haven't tried it, but it looks interesting.

eShopDaddy is another one that I use (I have BANS as well). Just make sure that your host supports ioncube loaders.
