The Internet Money Blog…

Thinking about creating your very own online store? If you are, I think it’s a great idea! You can start an online store in at least 3 different ways and I am going to show you how you can do this right now.

1. Ecommerce Stores.
Ecommerce stores are shopping cart stores, you can add products on the fly, you ship and deliver products and market your site usually using PPC advertising (If you have a whole heap of ebooks you can use an ecommerce cart as well instead of creating a whole heap of individual pages on a blog or html site.)

Ecommerce stores which are setup correctly are easy to edit and maintain, we recommend hiring a professional to setup your store. If you don’t have the money you can attempt to DIY or purchase a good script like zen-cart.com{MYSQL DB+PHP} or digistore.co.nz{WP}.

2. Affiliate Stores.
I like affiliate stores the best, these are commonly known as affiliate review sites and either have 1 page with reviews or up to 10 pages. You can easily market these types of sites for free with article marketing, social media and any other way you want.

Affiliate Stores are easy to make, you don’t need to physically own or send any product and you can set up thousands of these types of pages within weeks or minutes if you have good software.

I recommend Market Health products for affiliate review sites. They have real products and they do all of the hard work for you like shipping and customer service. =)

3. Partner Stores.
If you’re a partner for eBay or Amazon, you can, on the fly, create hundreds of RSS feed type of sites that display real products that people actually want to buy. These sites are great and Google still has a bit of love for these sites.

Some people have automated plugins to run these stores(like PHPBay pro<3) or they manually add code provided by the affiliate managers.

The key with these auto sites is to build a ton of links and advertise the individual product pages of the site, you really need to let Google know what’s going on, on your site to get them to send traffic your way.

Really, any internet page you make for money is an online store. If you need more info about Starting an Ecommerce Store or you’re looking for someone to set one up for you I recommend you check out www.themarketingmomma.com.
