I need a wesite with pre-loaded auto product updates

    Can anyone recommend a decent company that sells just about anything (as my domain is a generic shopping name)?

    I need a website that is pre-loaded with all the dropshipper's products and updated automatically. I can't be bothered trying to learn how to do all this because I've tried this in the past and it's too time consuming. I even paid a service that was supposed to update my products automatically, but they never delivered and I had to refund over $1000 in orders that month. Man that pissed me off so I pulled the site down.

    It seems like everyone is out to shaft one another out there and very little good advice, so I was hoping you fine people may be able to help? I'm just so tired of searching, reading and wondering is all.

    Does anyone have any good ideas/services I can use for my above needs?

    Cheers!

    signup as an affiliate to Amazon and they will give you a script to install on your site to make it into a store.

    I found this site dropshipdesign dot com, very interesting. They have everything I could possibly want. Has anyone used them and if so, what do you think of them? They seem pretty good but I don't know whether their wholesale prices are low enough for me to be competitive? They are a bit expensive to start-up at first (but understandable) and then offer 6mths free hosting. Then you only pay around $30pm. Any good gang?

    Are there any other providers out there similar to this and that sell all kinds of things like them?

    Hi again Sharpie. I just checked it out and it seems like it's quite expensive ($60pm!!!) for such a small percentage of profit (7%). I don't know about this one. But thanks matey!:D

    Sorry Angela, but I don't really know what they are tbh. Could you elaborate, or point me in the right direction perhaps? I'm not good at scripting at all.:eek:

    no no. You sign up as an affiliate. It's free. Then there's an option there in the menu called aStore. Click on that and they will take you from there. You will basically just redirect to your affiliate link or use an iframe to make it look like it's your site. They will give you the tools to customize it and the script you need.

    Sharpie, thanks again mate:). I finally found it under "Associates" instead of "Affiliates":eek:. This is fantastic and a great start for anyone who is inexperienced with eCommerce. I will definately try this for most of my sites for now and see how we go.

    Are you also using this service Sharpie? How are you doing with this, if so?

    don't mind that.

    I'm using it as a 2nd way of monetizing my sites, but not promoting it heavily. You should definitely get great results with it if you're targeting the right audience.

    Google some of the sample products. There are retail stores selling the products for less than their "wholesale" prices. Doba.com is another one. These dropship services sell products to you for more money than most retail stores. If you want to be successful, then take the time to find product manufacturers and contact them directly about dropshipping. Don't waste your money on these services. You won't get many sales if the customers does any sort of price comparison.

    I've already signed up and used the inline code for one of my sites. It's a bit ameteuristic, but it's a start at least (emartexpress.com). Any feedback would be appreciated?

    That is going to come in handy with my other services as well. I can see this as a much better option than that stupid Adsense.

    Thanks a million Sharpie. You're a gun!:D

    Thanks for that matey! That is very helpfull indeed. Although, I don't think they offer any websites with their services, nor any auto-inventory updates. Then again, I may have missed it? I think I may email them for more info. But it does sound alot better than the other mob I mentioned before.

    Cheers again mate!:D
