I heard that there are a few affiliate websites on ebay for sale. The sellers say that they make at least $500 dollars a month from these sites. I was interested in buying one. Do you think this is legit and legal or just a scam to get people to buy nothing for over $100?
Do You Know If Affiliate Websites Are The Real Deal? Or Are They Just A Scam?
Written by Make Money Online on October 24th, 2009 in Affiliate
eBay affiliates can make very good money from promoting eBay auctions. First of all they make money if somebody registers at eBay, then they also make money if someone clicks through their website, bids and wins an auction.
Just like any other website, it’s all in the promotion of the website. Just buying the site won’t make you money, you’ll have to do both paid and free advertising consistently to see revenues.
Do request to see traffic information and proof of income in this purchase to verify their claims.
If you have the know-how you can easily make a website like this for much less than $100 (seriously). Please check out the article below for more information.
Why bother buying someones affiliate Website. The best way to this is to create your own. If someone is selling a Site for say, 100.00 it probably is not worth it, because if it made money they would keep it!!!
Also keep in mind that this is a site not set up by you. You do not know the owner, the hosting fee’s, implementation, affiliate codes or a ton of other problematic details involved within the mechanics of the whole operation.
People who sell legit websites are usually larger businesses who merge, and who use sourses other than eBay to do their bidding…
With the advent of modern techs, it is really simple to create your own site and work it yourself, using Website builders that implement HTML coding seamlessly.
Stuff on ebay can be a scam so be careful….try better affiliate programs like the one www.startupaddict.com offers
Some work, but most don’t. I have heard that only 3% of people that do affiliate programs will ever make any real money. Here is a really great program that you might want to look into.
Affiliate programs like the one Amazon offers is a great one. A customer clicks on a link on your site for a product they wish to buy. That link, which is embedded with your site’s information, takes them to Amazon who fulfills the customers order. Amazon pays relatively quickly and have a name everyone recognizes. The drawback is that once you send a customer over to them to buy something, the customer belongs to them, not you. Amazon will market products to them under their site, not your affiliate link. So they may not use your affiliate link to buy stuff again.
Affiliate sites are run relatively the same way, except they only promote one or a few products for customers to purchase. When the customer wants to buy, just as with an affiliate link, they click the link and are sent to another area for payment.
Affiliate sites tend to pay more than affiliate links. However, the difference is that once the customer buys a product from an affiliate site, it’s usually a one time thing.
The eBay affiliate site you are referring to, I believe it’s “Build A Niche Store”, is a legitimate one. However, unless you have a rather large budget for the domain name and hosting service they recommend for your site, and some more set aside for marketing your site, this endeavor can quickly become very expensive. Hope this helps.
If you are interested, I recently joined a company last week that may be able to help you earn a little extra income.
Once you join, your membership includes your own online mall to purchase whatever you want or need. Your purchases on your online mall give you rebates back on all your purchases, which may help cut some expenses. And, if you share this opportunity with at least 5 to 10 people, who in turn do the same, it may slowly begin to become an additional source of income.
Plus. Membership for this opportunity is ABSOLUTELY FREE. Check out my site at http://www.tipstowdw.com for additional information and see if this is for you.
I wish you the best of luck in all your business ventures.
Visit the site see how many people visit on a regular bases. Ask the owners questions…..
