@ Benjamin – NO PROBLEM! Glad to help!

It does take a bit to build it up correctly before the $$ comes in.. BUTT, if done correctly and with patience, it will be WELL worth the wait!

For a disclaimer or “privacy policy” YES you need one! There are several WP plugins out there for your WP sites, or you can search google for ones to use on your BANS sites!

Adding a blog is simple IF you are using HostGator.. i’m not familiar with any other hosting.. but with hostgator you just go through your CPANEL and Fantastico will take you through it step by step!!

Let me know if you need any help!

It does take work.. but like i’ve said, it pays off! Just don’t give up and take EVERYTHING as a learning experience!!

Thanks for all these priceless informations…. well well, it sounds like I will need adword… I bought N1WAY already, and it’s really interesting. it takes a lifetime to receive a reply from EPN…. I mailed the support and got quick reply saying my site is under review… of course I won’t be accepted for this, plus I can’t change the informations, it sucks… I will have to always use this compagny name no matter I don’t have a compagny itself, it’s just a screen domain name that I used as a compagny… well, sounds like this new income stream won’t show up before long… Should I hire someone to get me those page ready? Do I need a disclammer? can I copy and paste other people disclamer? well so much work, I just wish the hard work will pay off, otherwise I’ll spend some more bucks for someone who set up everything for me…. by the way, how to I add a blog like on your site??

@ Benjamin – From our conversation it sounded like you knew about BANS and EPN and how they work… Did you submit an established site to EPN?? EPN is very strict about what they accept! The site you submit to them will need to have a great amount of content etc etc…

also, BE SURE to read the EPN Code of Conduct to make sure you know what you are and aren’t suppose to do/have on your site!!

Also I would suggest jumping in at the BANS forum and READ READ READ READ READ… then READ some more!!

Thank you Jake! I’ll definitely look for a niche right now. It’s really hard to make a choice anyway… hope I’ll make more $$$ than I already earn…

@ Benjamin – I would say it’s really hard to make that comparison but I will give you my thoughts..

Looking at my stats, my top earner for last year and so far this year is a straight up BANS store with an unmodified BANS theme, that has very or little content!! Why is it the top earner?? Because it was a very good niche choice!

I also have sites that are BANS themes that have WP installed to give the site a “blog”. Soo, in effect I can use BANS for the theme and phpBay for the WP part of it.. Some of those BANS themes have been converted… there are folks that can make the BANS theme, look just like the WP theme you are using so the transition between the two looks seamless.

I like the flexibility of WP and phpBay. I have a new site that isn’t very old, that is right up there with that top earner for this year along with that site that is straight up BANS.

The MAIN thing is researching your niche ahead of time, using google’s keyword research tool, terapeak, and tools such as that to get the most profitable niche from the get go! I learned the hard way that research pays off!

I think you can have a very successful site with either BANS or phpBay! The N1Way guide that you see advertised on the blog here, is from the BANS creators Kelvin and Adam. They have done a great job at laying out all the steps that need to be taken to build a successful site using either BANS or phpBay and WP!

Hope that helps!
