Do you know what is the number one eBay affiliate mistake?  The keywords. I explained a lot about building a successful eBay Affiliate store in the free guide, but some people still don’t get it!

If you don’t do the proper keyword research you are not going to get the buyers on your site.  If you don’t get the buyers on your site, you are not going to make money of your eBay affiliate Niche Stores.  So…..Lets give you some of the examples of good keywords and good titles!

Keyword: Stroller Does not Tell you Anything!

Keyword: Graco Stroller - Getting you somewhere

Keyword: Graco Travel Stroller - Now we know what they want

The buyers keyword are Graco Travel System Strollers -

Now Let’s Make an Atractive Title to Go With it!

Two Day Sale on Graco Travel System Strollers Makes it Clickable!

I know that some people get this, but due to the offer I made to my list members, I realized that some people are trying to rank for some generic terms.

Diet term gets almost two million searches.  But will the person who is searching for term diet, actually buy anything…Probably NOT!  You need the people who are going to search for a specific diet such as the Atkins Diet.

People wanting to know what is the Atkins Diet Plan is a person who is at the last stage in their purchasing cycle.  So when you are selecting that niche market…Make sure you are researching your keyword correctly, because just a few high PR links can get you on the First Google Page and make your eBay affiliate business a success.

Hi there…

With a lot of projects that I am working on, I really have not had a lot of time for my affiliate niche store blog.  Having said this,  I just received a great e-mail from my friend Jamie Holt and thought I should post it for you. Just like me, he is a Wealthy Affiliate Member, and someone who’s opinion I value a lot. So here it goes…He has a great way to connect with people, and explain it in a natural text flow!

Heya… hows things?…

Today I just want to give you a little research guidance… so here goes… it’s a long one, but you could really benefit…so…

Here’s the thing… when doing research..it is VERY easy to get sidetracked and “wander” off around the net… you aren’t alone there…

So… before you start…you need to make some goals, write them down…and focus hard to get them…no matter how small…just write down your goals, and don’t let yourself wander until you achieve…

I will throw something out there…

No matter what niche you are looking at… you need to find a core specific, highly targeted desire or need which you can satisfy for them, in return for your commission..

NOW… what you want to do is home in on some real hungry wants, or desires…

Often when people are looking for something…e.g. Weight Loss… if they are typing in weight loss…there is a good chance that they are just hunting for information… so it is your main aim to catch the people looking to lose weight, but who are more desperate to lose weight..which will more times than not have burned into their core beliefs with an issue…

Like….

I hate having extra fat around my hips… How do I get rid of my love handles??…or….I hate having a fat face, How do I get rid of my double chin?…

Which means they are more than ready to actually get rid of them/it.. people looking for “lose weight” are only looking for information…not a direct, buy now solution… and we want people in the buy now solution stage of purchasing cycle…

Those that are worrying daily about their love handles/double chin…really have a burning desire to get rid of them…and what you want to do is put yourself in between that desire and the product in order to receive commission…

No selling, no hype…just pop yourself in the middle and the sales will come flooding…seriously…

So…. choose a market/niche…and then within that market/niche… you need to find the love handles/double chin…. and work with it…

If you have a market/niche… look for related forums and start digging for 5 potential desires like the double chin/love handles… and if it connects in your keyword tool with plenty of searches and low level competition…run with it…

Google:

Niche + forum…

or look around Yahoo answers

Or look what products are advertised in the niche magazines for your niche…

But most importantly… do it as much as you can, whenever you have the time for I.M…. but keep a LIST of goals!!!… and resolve within yourself to achieve them before you stop…

If you start out to look for 5 potential love handle/double chin type questions in your niche….then write that down as your goal and don’t quit until you get them…

When you have those 5 …have your next goal as finding well searched keywords relatin to those desires…(the best keyword tool ever is your brain, but cross reference it with the tools for guidance..the keyword tools are never, ever to be trusted 100%…)

If you can’t tally up some longtail keywords with a desire for the niche questions…

Then…wash, rinse, and repeat again until you do…

If a niche has an active forum…then chances are it is a good one to get stuck into

Make yourself responsible, hold yourself accountable…make a list

Hope this helped a little!

Create Your Success!

It is important to mention that you do not need to spend any money to make money. You do not have to buy phpbay Pro Wordpress Plugin. Or for that matter,  domain and hosting  in order to make make money! This whole system will work with squidoo lens as well. Because Squidoo will share profits with you of each lens. If it is eBay or Amazon Modules, or adsense. I will explain to you about squidoo later on.

The reason I prefer to build my own niche store is simple. All the traffic I drive to it that converts in sale, I keep 100% profits. All the adsense I have, I keep 100% profits.

But since some people do not have the budget to invest, I strongly suggest you sign up with squidoo. Over the next few weeks I will show you what you need to do to make money with it. Squidoo lens is a website, but in a blog/article type setting.

3 Major reasons I choose to invest into software and each domain.

1. You see, when you drive traffic to the your domain, domain value increases, so even if my niche is not as profitable as I would want it to be, I can always sell domain and make money.
2. Second is that I am in this to make a real business out of it. While it is o.k. to start with Squidoo if you don’t have money to invest, you can make some money and than invest into the software. You can still use your squidoo as a link back to your main site.
3. I like to be in control of my business as much as possible.

So now you know that you do not have to buy build a niche store software, but it is recommended for a long term eBay profits.

p.s. you know you can get the PHPBay Pro at the discount Right?

For anyone who is totally new at this, I strongly suggest you go and sign up for the Free Complimentary Build a Successful Niche Store Guide. It is going to show you step by step what needs to be done.

So here is my story. I originally started getting just the basic affiliate marketing training. During that training (it took me 8 weeks to make my first $70 with affiliate marketing) a lot of products were offered to me. Among them was Build a Niche Store Software. However, I did not buy it right away.  After some time I did purchase it and it was great.  But it did not last for a long time!  Why? Well the thing is, many people were to lazy to update their sites and Google Started deindexing many Bans Sites.  I was a victim as well since I had to go to Europe and could not work on my business for 5 weeks.  That is when I started looking into wordpress blogs and than I found PHPBay plugin!

So lets get back to the approximate cost to run the eBay affiliate niche business! The cost of software is $79 But using this link you can get a 20% off.  This is a one time fee!

Besides the software, you will need hosting, and I pay for mine at hostgator.com(this link is for discount codes as well) because I can host unlimited sites for $10 a month.

And I also buy domain for each of my sites. I know some people just use subdomains but I prefer separate domains for each site. I get my domains at godaddy.com.

I also pay for my training $30/month and I pay for some miscellaneous costs such as places to post my ads at. But other than that. That is it.

Now I am not going to paint you a pretty picture here. Because with my first store, with my first products line I chose, I made a lot of mistakes, but even with all the mistakes I managed to pay of the cost of software. In about a week my site went live. However, if you take it easy and go through full affiliate niche store guide, you will probably skip that learning curve.

O.K. so let me get started. As an eBay affiliate you have to know how to find your niche market. And this is by no means easy and I have made a mistake on this too. So let me explain. The niche market is a smaller market of a big market. So for example. The big market is baby items, but the smaller or niche market is baby stroller or baby monitor. Also, sporting goods are the big market, while parent sporting equipment is a smaller market. So the niche is a more specific more defined market. Almost all successful affiliates are niche marketers. I personally when I started this business was all over the place. I was trying to promote everything that came to mind. If I saw a lot of keywords in one market, I was all excited and ran to build a website about it. What happens is that it is very hard to market all of the products.

I do not spend money on my traffic, or should I say very little of it. All of my traffic is free traffic and I learned that at Wealthy Affiliate University, which is a great place to get your business started, but here I will show you the basics. To really succeed in this business you need to keep yourself educated at all times.

O.k. back to niche market. You really need to understand this to make it successful. So pick one major market you know something about, and you need to narrow it down. Maybe you know a lot about new phones, or computers, or sporting events. Maybe you camp a lot, so that would be a larger market you select and you need to dig deeper to establish yourself.

This is all outlined a lot more in the full Guide Create a Successful Affiliate Niche Store!
