I had someone leave a comment the other day stating that they thought Build A Niche Store costs $1,000. While that would still be a good deal to me, because I’ve already earned way more than that by using BANS, the price is actually a whole lot less at only $97.

And with that $97 price you can build as many eBay affiliate nice stores as you want. In fact I have 10 BANS stores I’m working on right now and plans for another 2 in the works. That’s the great thing about this eBay affiliate script, because with the more than 28,000 US eBay categories and the sometimes hundreds of individual niches within those categories, you could build an eBay affiliate empire with thousands of stores. Then add in all the different eBay countries BANS represents and you can add several thousand more niches.

Rather than go much more into how BANS works, you can read my review of BANS and see proof of my income from it and you can check out my 7 part BANS tutorial series on how to set up a profitable BANS store and get traffic and links.

Build A Niche Store really is the best way to take advantage of the eBay affiliate program and at a cost of only $97, not $1,000 as some might think, it is a great deal.

Have you ever wanted to stick it to Google and be in charge of your own advertising? How would you like to get 100% of the profits you earn in selling advertising on your blog? You could create your own advertising page and individually track, schedule, manage, collect payments from advertisers and more or you could get OIOPublisher and have all that done automatically. And now you can do it for 50% off.

You’ve probably seen the little 125 x 125 ads on many blogs and over to the right in my sidebar and may have wondered how all that works, what makes them rotate so you never see them in the same position and I’m sure there are a few more questions. Well, OIOPublisher does a great job of all of that and to introduce their latest updated version, they’re offering a 50% off coupon. The regular price of IOIPublisher is $37, but if you use the code QWERTY-17 when you order you can get $17 off that price. Yea, I know it’s exactly 46% off, not 50%, but it’s close enough for the title.

OIO already has a ton of features, but version 1.60 adds some significant upgrades such as:

An addition of an ad queue
You can now use html with the ad system
You can now use use OIO with non-WordPress sites (very cool)
OIO will now be integration with an upcoming ad network (ViralBlogAds.com) (so you can sell unused adspace on the network)

OIOPublisher must still be hosted on a WordPress blog, but with the upgrade, through java script you can now place ads on any website and then sell ads through your own system or through ViralBlogAds.

I love OIOPublisher and use it to manage my advertising here at Affiliate Confession and if you want to start selling ads on your blog or just need a better way to manage them you should definitely take advantage of this discount. Don’t forget to use the coupon code QWERTY-17 for your $17 discount.

Want to try out some pay per click advertising for free? Microsoft is currently offering $75 in free clicks for new sign-ups to their AdCenter PPC advertising program from now until June 30th 2008. How does that sound for a nice deal?

If you haven’t tried PPC advertising before, it is a bit tricky to lean how to be profitable in, but this is a great opportunity to learn the ropes and spend someone else’s money while figuring out the whole process.

Some veteran PPC advertisers have seen better conversions on the Microsoft network through Live Search and MSN, than they’ve seen through Google or Yahoo. Apparently Microsoft has a different demographic of shoppers that tends to buy at a better rate than through other search portals. But hey, with a $75 coupon for free clicks, what difference does it make?

If you want to avoid the ridiculous landing page rules and $10 minimum bids if you don’t get it right from Google, give this offer a try and see if you can make it work. You have $75 to play with so give it a shot.

Make sure you use the coupon code on the sign up page to get your $75 credit. I would post the code here, but it looks like it generates a new code every time you go to the page.

The offer is only for new advertisers and does require a $5 set up fee. Would you pay 5 bucks to get $75 worth of clicks?

Want to get some free traffic to your blog or web site and actually have people take a good look at it? I know you’ve seen the cheesy, get 25,000 visitors to your site for $29.95 scam deals, but this is a way to get real visitors to review your site and give you pointers on what you can do to improve it and make it better. No, you won’t get tens of thousands of visitors with these reviews, but you will get real opinions from real people.

If you head over to Webmaster Talk forums you can get your blog and or web site reviewed for free, but there are some rules. You can’t just hop over there, sign up and start spamming the forums with your blog or site urls, you have to participate and add value to the forums first by reviewing 3 blogs before you can submit your own.

You can also get your web site reviewed for free as well, and you also have to review 3 web sites  before asking for your own web site to be reviewed. You can’t do 1 blog review and 2 website reviews and then submit your own blog and web site. You must review 3 of each before submitting your own. Preferably you should look for threads and review those sites or blogs that haven’t been looked at yet or had a response to. That’s not always possible, but be on the look out for empty, non-responded threads.

Oh, and no lame, “Cool site” or “Like the colors” type responses. Please add value to the forum and review a site as you would expect to get yours reviewed.

You can join Webmaster Talk forums here.

I can’t think of anything in the last several years where I’ve completely changed my thinking about it in 24-48 hours. I’m talking about a 180 degree change from thinking this is the dumbest thing ever to, wow, this is great and everybody should be using it. I’m now a total Twitter believer.

Probably the biggest thing that convinced me as to how useful Twitter could be, was when people started tweeting my posts. First Wordvixen tweeted a post, then Jeremy Palmer tweeted my post about Twitter being hard to explain. Then I discovered I had nearly twice as many followers on Twitter as I had friends on Facebook, and it only took 2 days to do that. The light bulb is on at level three now.

And not only that, I like Twitter much better than I like Facebook because I can get a quick rundown of what everybody is doing or if they have an interesting article I might want to read on their blog. I don’t get assaulted with ads, or lame applications to install, or people contacting me that I have no idea who they are, or repeated friend requests that I’ve ignored over and over, or stuff that I’m just not interested in. I am a full time affiliate marketer and Facebook seems like a playground, whereas Twitter seems more serious and if I see tweets I’m not interested in, it’s simple, I just don’t read them.

Also, Twitter can actually save you time if you don’t abuse it. I’m trying to follow the major bloggers I read on a consistent basis by watching their tweets and most of them will tweet a new blog post, which keeps me from unnecessarily perusing their blogs and wasting time. Since you can have multiple accounts, Twitter can also be used to send out updates to a specific group of people such as with Jeremy Palmer’s Black Ink Project where he is mentoring a group of 1,000 people on how to be profitable in affiliate marketing, which he is graciously doing for free.

No, Twitter definitely does not suck like I though it did.
