How to Build a Free Web Store
In 3 Easy (and
Different) Ways. . .
Adding a web
site store to your site is a simple matter of using a website store
builder readily available from affiliate marketing programs.
(Plus, it will earn you some income too!)
Do you
want to try building a web store?
Great!
Let's get
right to it then. . .
There are a variety of options available for creating a free web store
but for now I'll stick with describing the three most popular ones.
Any type of web site thrives with a diverse
monetizing strategy
which is why I personally use each of these web site store options on
my sites.
Although each of these free web
store formats are quite
different from each other, each one is easy to use and can generate a
reliable, steady stream of revenue.
1. Amazon.com aStore:
Once you are
approved as an Amazon.com affiliate you
can promote any of the products listed on Amazon in a variety of ways.
The Amazon aStore format couldn't be
easier to add to any website.
Simply select the products that you want to feature on your site,
follow the easy point and click directions that Amazon provides and
copy the code generated, paste it on your web page and off you go!
Here's an example of an aStore:
Gnomely's
Website Building Help aStore
Tip: Amazon
also allows you to add your own logo to your aStore as well as a
link to your website!
2. PopShops:
Popshops
feature products from thousands of merchants that
list themselves with several of the top affiliate marketing companies
such as Commission
Junction, LinkShare , Google's Affiliate Network, Share-a-Sale
and so
forth.
It is important to make sure that you are already approved an affiliate
with
not only the affiliate marketing company but with the individual
merchant that carries the specific products you want to
feature in your
PopShop.
There are many options to customize the look of your Popshops so that
your shop will fit in seamlessly with the look and feel of your website
design.
Tip: Be sure
to check the status of your PopShop web site stores a few
times a week because some of the specific the product links seem to
expire with frustrating frequency.
3. Majon Free Shopping Mall:
This is the
quickest and easiest web site
store to build of them all!
The Majon
Mall website store builder
not
only provides you with the option to customize your own mall style web
site store, you can also choose a separate domain name as well as
optimize the free web store with primary keywords related to your site
niche.
The Free Mall has many more features than any other free web
store builder programs. You are even encouraged to add specific product
links using your ClickBank affiliate ID# as well as
to add Google
Adsense, Searchfeed, and Kontera in order to help you generate
additional streams of income.
You can also add descriptive text and
links pointing to merchandise that you feature on your own site. (Hint:
Remember to use
anchor text links to your ebook or eservice will also provide you with
some very nice juicy backlinks!)
The only drawback to building a Majon
free web store is that it is a free standing site and not the kind of
web site store like the Amazon aStore or PopShops that you can
integrate right into one of your web pages.
This means that you will
need to provide the URL of your mall store to your visitors in order
for them to go shopping.
Although, unlike any other web store builder, Majon's Free Mall Web
Site Store also
has a
particularly nice feature that accommodates YouTube Video uploads,
banner ads, and more.
Tip:
Click the " Shopping Mall" link at the top
right-hand side of the page and select " Get
a Free Mall Store".
Each of these options for building a free web
store gives you the ability to really
customize your mall to suit the needs and interests of your visitors.
There!
How easy it that?
Didn't I tell you that building a free website store wasn't going to be
difficult?
In less than an hour or two (tops) you can create any one of 3
different types of
a web site store using any of these free website store builder options
to generate additional revenue streams to your website.
