Ebay.com vs BANS

    Hi all, i'm new to cj. I'm interested in BANS, but i wonder why people have to come to this store site if they can just go directly to ebay.com and search for products they wanna buy.

    It's a script called Built A Niche Store. It's good for cj/ebay affiliates. :) I read about that.

    Because they stupidly search for a product using Google and end up on one of my sites instead :D (Although I use my own similar DIY scripts instead of BANS).

    It's a script to create web stores using products on eBay (see the CJ link in my sig)

    BANS/eBay is really easy to get going. You just set up a 'shop', do a bit of promotion, and that's it. Then you do it again, and again.

    You can see it BANS here, if you want ;)

    Bans is really good, you can make a niche store, which ebay don't have by itself.

    What's the advantage of BANS over regular CMS?

    BANS is a script that is made for ebay/cj affiliate. Other CMS scripts are not for that, they're only for general use and it's difficult to put ebay/cj shops/listing like BANS do.

    yes. if everyone buys something and used your link, you receive at least 50% of the ebay revenue.

    As long as they're the winning bidder on the Ryder Cup tickets you'll get a percentage of eBay's fee. And if they go on a crazy spending spree, you'll also be in on that until your cookie expires.

    5 words that I live by...
    "Drop your cookie and run"
    :D

    Ebay leaves a cookie in the browser of the person who clicked your link. So if that person bids an win something in 30 days at ebay, you get a percentage of that ;)

    If you click the jon's link, and you bid there on something and win, the money is for jon's. If you 3 days later click on kerosene link and bid on something and win the money is for kerosene, and you loose the 30 days cookie of jon, and you get the 30 days cookie of kerosene.

    many thanks guys, i've thought about buying bans for a while and think i'm going to take the plunge, not got any pogramming experience so wish me luck

    I have played with CJ for a few months and generate around $400 per month via directly linking using AdWords at a cost of around $50 per month. Google not like this as I use an unrelated Display URL. So hoping Bans can provide me with an alternative way to use CJ and generate some legitimate cash

    Thanks again

    So who's referral link are you going to click? :D :p

    Seriously ...BANS/eBay can be the start of some pretty significant earnings. Put a bit of work into promotion, and wait it out. Then once it starts kicking off, do it all again. Good luck :)
