It seems niche eBay stores are the site de jour at the moment. There have been a few posts I have read lamenting the BANS software that allows you to create a niche eBay affiliate store easily and with a few back links start earning a few dollars a day.
He made $3.60 per day and while I did have days that I made more than that, my average over two weeks was right at $1 per day. While that's not going to let me quit my day job or buy a house on the beach, if those results hold, that will be about $365 in a year's time for 2 hours worth of work.
Which made a post about after Max also of Blogging Experiment had posted about his success with BANS.
So I'll add in an extra 3 hours of work over the course of the year to maintain the current results. Even with 5 hours invested in this website, it will still be earning me $222.73 per hour…not bad!
Whilst the figures are not ground breaking the fact that these stores can run pretty much on autopilot makes BANS a pretty interesting internet idea. I have been running a couple of niche stores as a test. I have also been able to monetize the sites further by using Chitika which pays per click like Adsense. Additionally you could put banner ads from Money4Banners and Matched to cover the cost of the domain and hosting making this a time only investment.
