I’ve put up two stores. One is focused on a good niche (that I know very well) with below-average demand (i.e., low number of Google searches). The other is focused on another profitable niche with more than adequate demand and low competition (i.e., about 200,000 Google search results).Â
I have barely done anything to these stores. On one, I changed the color scheme myself (with my limited HTML knowledge). On the other, I found a free BANS theme, uploaded it, and selected it. I made a couple of changes to the store pages on the left sidebar. But that’s it.
All in all, after installing BANS, I’ve spent about an hour TOTAL on both of these stores.
I checked my Ebay Partner Network account last week, and I found the following:

Now, as I stated in my first BANS update, this isn’t going to make me rich. Heck, it doesn’t even buy me a movie ticket or a gallon of gasoline these days.Â
But it’s a start. And passive income is a game of inches. Every little bit of cash that trickles in adds to your grand passive income total.  Like I said, I did about an hour of total work on both of these sites. They don’t look all that great, and I have done very little on-page search engine optimization and virtually NO off-page optimization. And yet, I made $3.59. And I can guarantee you that more change will trickle in.Â
These earnings illustrate the potential of BANS. I urge you to purchase the software and try it out. If almost no work makes me $3.59 (and likely more than that), imagine what another couple of hours of site design and SEO will do. I’m so addicted to BANS already that I want to sit down on a Saturday and spend the WHOLE day fixing and optimizing my two sites. I know that, once I do that, my passive income from them will increase ten-fold.
And then I’ll put up more sites. $$$$Â

4Hey Hugo, good luck with that store. I learn more and more every day about how to run them, what niches to choose, and how to optimize them.
