Sounds crazy but their are ways to make money with Ebay that does not involve selling your old clothes or baseball cards. Its actually very easy and can be very profitable with Ebay’s Partner Network.

Ebay Partner Network
In a nutshell, Ebay will pay you for referring someone to signup for an account on their site plus they will pay you a percentage of Ebays Fees for any auctions that the person bids on over a period of seven days.

Step 1:
Create an Ebay Account

Step 2:
Sign up for Ebay Partner Network

Step 3:
Use the tools Ebay provides to put links, widgets, or RSS feeds directly on your website. When someone clicks on your add and they win an auction, you make money.

Creating a Dedicated Ebay Site
One way to really make money with the Ebay Partner Network is by creating niche sites based around Ebay auctions. About a year ago when the Nintendo Wii first came out and were very hard to get, I created a site based solely around Nintendo Wii Auctions. The great part was that they were high ticket items and I was able to make a good amount of money off this simple site.

I was able to do this using a software called BANS or Build A Niche Store

Here is an Example of a great golf club site using the BANS software
BANS is a great tool for newbie because it gives you everything you need to create a niche site quickly and they give you the flexibility to customize your own site.
