Strategies
Flip Unwanted Domains
My wife and I are fans of the reality television shows on House Flipping.
You know the premise of these shows. Someone will purchase a home that needs to be renovated and then will “flip it” (sell it) for a profit. At least that is the theory. It doesn’t always work out that way.
This make-the-best-of-it financial mentality appeals to me for many of the domains I currently own. Instead of trying to create long-term streams of passive online income with domains purchased with an Affiliate Marketing mindset equivalent to a kindergarten student, why not “flip” this online real estate for whatever I can get for it and move on.

On The Affiliate Brink
There was a happy ending to this poor guy’s dilemma in what is one of the most incredible videos I’ve ever witnessed. Suicide aside, with the recent cuts in their affiliate force by the eBay Partner Network, BANS users must feel like at any minute they could be swept over the affiliate-brink. Especially if a good chunk of their income is dependent on EPN. I realize PepperJam is a fall back position for BANS users, but it still looks precarious at best and not an affiliate-ledge I’d like to be perched for any length of time waiting to be rescued.

Wordpress and BANS get Married
One of the things that has me excited about converting WordPress templates to work with Build a Niche Store is it provides BANS owners with a convenient way to publish content on a consistent basis.
Wordpress makes content publication a snap and support for the platform is rock solid and established. It seems every time I look there is another handy Wordpress plugin making the job of producing content a little bit easier.
With BANS hooked into Wordpress writing relevant content linked to store pages should not only become less tedious but also more fun. When used correctly Wordpress produces a flow of content production conducive to writing followup articles that weave a tight fabric of search engine friendly stand-alone pages. Categories, sub-categories and Wordpress tags all can be used to support posts and pages so that each post becomes a mini-site attracting visitors and potential shoppers for years to come.

Meet My New Blogging Mentor
Well what do ya know, I found a blogging mentor and I am VERY impressed! I had to be.
Money’s not growing on trees these days. Handing over a dollar bill, to anyone but my wife, is tougher than amending the US Constitution. I can almost feel the flesh being torn off the tips of my fingers as “my precious” slides out of my grasp and into the hands of some undeserving stranger.
That gives you a picture of how impressed I am with my new blogging mentor.

Shifting Affiliate Strategies
It would make sense that since I sell coffee products on eBay I should have a blog about coffee, which I do. But once again Build A Niche Store was the main reason I started my blog called The Coffee Place, it wasn’t selling on eBay. I also wanted to see if I could put to good use some of the hundreds of PLR (Private Label Rights) articles I had loitering around in my hard drive. Yes I paid for them as part of a “buy out option” when I exited from the monthly PLR program I was part of.
