Here I will explain a little about how to start an eBay affiliate business. This is a low cost business. It doesn’t take a lot of money, but it takes a lot of time if you are not willing to invest. In fact, this business can start for free, but of course it is better to invest a little in it.

So how much does it cost. Like I said, there are ways to make money without investing money. There are websites like Squidoo that will share the earnings from the eBay and Amazon modules as well as your AdSense earnings with you. So yes, you can start it for free, but I think that for the efforts that you are going to make in this, it is better to invest a little. I will explain why.

To invest a little money, there is a cost of software (one-time fee of $ 97), hosting (approximately $ 10 / month in unlimited stores) and domain ($ 10-20) for each store. With this software called build a niche store, you can create unlimited eBay affiliate stores, so it is nice to have hosting that is also unlimited for each domain. I host 10 in total along with my subdomain for the same fee of $ 10 a month. And I have 7 main domains, with few small subdomains.

What is required for your affiliate program to be successful is finding the profitable market niche, proper keyword research, basic SEO (search engine optimization) of your website, and lots of promotion.

Earlier I said, I think it is better to invest in the software just because for the amount of work you are going to do promoting your stores, you probably want to keep 100% of the profits.
