Finally Solvent!
As of Sunday morning (July 27, 2008), my affiliate programs become solvent.
Some time between checking my stats Saturday night, and my stats Sunday afternoon, someone either made a huge purchase through eBay, or signed up for an account through one of my links. That final number not only paid off the $97 that I paid for my BANS program, but also for the two domains that I’d built my BANS stores on. Yay!
So what’s next? Well, obviously I plan to enjoy pure profit after this. And once I get a few of my shops looking presentable (since, strangely, my biggest converters are the least developed of my stores- I’ve even had a purchase from a site that had nothing but the eBay link on it) I plan to build a few landing pages and start advertising.
I don’t know what I’m doing in regards to advertising, but as I’ve finally figured out how to layer pictures in my photo editor, I think I may stand a chance at actually building the ads. And since I don’t believe in squeeze pages, I have a few ideas in so far as simple landing pages.
