Free turnkey website - PDA related eBay eCommerce site - Pack 1

Hi, I'm giving away a free package of files used to create a website that displays ads for eBay auction listings.

DOWNLOAD THE PACK | VISIT THE DEMO SITE

You get paid a commission from eBay each time someone makes a purchase at an eBay site after clicking on one of the auction ad links on the site you create using this pack.

The site updates automatically, and requires no maintenance.

I've made up to $1 per click from sites built using this pack. REVENUE SCREENSHOT

Note that the script used with this website pack is a heavily modified and improved version of an LGPL licensed open source script, and is legal to use and distribute.

- Features -

The site you create using this pack displays auction listings from eBay, with your eBay affiliate campaign ID embedded into them. The auction listing pages are dynamically generated from eBay RSS feeds. Each time someone visits eBay from your site and makes a purchase, you will be paid a commission. eBay sets a 7 day tracking cookie, so you can continue to get paid for any purchases made within 7 days of the visitor's first visit.

The site can also display content pages which show HTML page content instead of the auction listings. You can set one of these content pages as the home page for the site, or use the main auction page as the home page instead. The 'Chatroom', 'Links', 'Contact', 'Terms', and 'Privacy' pages shown on the site are all examples of content pages.

The pack comes with instructions which detail how to set up and run the site, what affiliate programs you need to sign up for, how to customize the site, where to find web hosting and domain names for the site, and many other subjects.

The site is very easy to setup. After editing the configuration text file to customize the site, you just upload the site to your hosting account and use your FTP program (or online file manager) to change the permissions of the 'cache' folder to '777', and the site should be ready to go. Once setup, the site runs automatically and should require no maintenance.

The site includes a search function which allows visitors to search for specific auction topics they are interested in.

The site includes an 'Auction Settings' form which allows the visitor to fine tune their search - increasing the chance of their finding what they want, and increasing your chance of being paid a commission as a result.

The auction pages include dynamically generated 'Related Auctions' and 'Similar Auctions' menus, which can result in thousands or more pages being indexed by the search engines, and which can induce visitors to navigate further into the site.

The site is highly search engine targeted to attract consumer oriented traffic. Most of the search engine visitors who visit the site, entered the word 'buy' at the start of their search query, and are specifically looking to buy the product they are searching for.

The auction listing links are generated using Javascript. This prevents unfiltered spider and scraper bots from following your affiliate links and effectively 'click-bombing' your site. This is an essential measure, as eBay's new Quality Click Pricing payment model can be severely affected by invalid clicks. These Javascript links still pass the referrer information required by eBay's Terms of Service, however.

The site can easily be configured by editing its configuration file. You can modify the name of the site; the site slogan; the theme used for the site; the keyword used to generate the listings on the main auction page; the content page to use as the home page for the site (just leave this setting blank to use the main auction page as the home page); the keywords used for the sidebar auction menu links; the default Auction Settings; the email address used with the server-side contact form; the number of auctions shown on each auction page; and many other settings.

You can add an XML sitemap file to the site to encourage the search engines to deep-index the site pages. The instructions for the site include links to free online sitemap generators which can be used to generate the sitemap, as well as instructions on installing the sitemap file. The site comes with a default sitemap file.

You can use domain pointers (domain parking) to run multiple sites from a single set of site files. Each parked site can be set to have its own theme, configuration file, sitemap file, etc.

Websites created using this pack are themeable. You can create your own themes (or hire someone to make them for you) and change the look of the site however you like.

You can easily edit the theme files to add links and additional advertising. The sidebar and main content areas in the theme files are clearly marked with comment tags.
