I figured for v3 we needed some 3D! So here it is -> the website for the excellent and profitable Build a Niche Store software... in 3D.

If you're looking for the best ways to make money online and haven't yet heard about BANS or Version 3 of their easy-to-use eBay auction store building web software, this will be exciting for you.

BANS is a web software that makes creating streamlined eBay auction websites a breeze. You don't have to be an experienced user or a power affiliate or any of that jargon. You just have to read the manual, plug in the right stuff and you're off and running.

I have heard many (and varied) reports about people getting BANS stores up and running in a matter of hours and having $300 to $400 in revenue in the first month - all this with a new website and no special newsletters or advertising. To a great extent, that's all thanks to the fact the BANS is quite search engine friendly - and Version 3 has improved that feature even more.

I am working on releasing a line of these stores related to language learning. I will post links to these niche eBay stores once they are live to give folks some real stores to work with. I will also explain the process I followed to create these stores.

To make sure you stay up to date, please subscribe to the Money Flows RSS Feed.

As I was walking through the Grenadian countryside this morning, the idea occurred to me to put together my two (current) main pursuits: language learning and making money online.

So this is a quick post to inform subscribers to watch out for upcoming content in multiple languages about the art of making money on the web. Real money, the kind of money you can live and support a family on.

The languages I will initially work with are the ones I know best: French, Portuguese and Spanish. I will take side adventures into German, Italian and Mandarin Chinese as well. Once my Russian is up to par, that will naturally follow suit.

Ciao for now!

The Niche Store Builder

I just came across a great recent article about building an empire of BANS sites.

I like this word: empire. It can't help sounding bad ass. Who in this line of do-it-wherever-there's-a-connection work (web information architecture, affiliate marketing and search engine magic) wouldn't love a self-sustaining net empire?

That's what Money Flows is about: my pursuit to find, test and implement methods for generating steady web income. Over time, I narrow them down to the ones that create the most wealth, working harder to make those entities encore plus lucratives.

Indeed, with time and years of research, the dream has started working for me. After arriving late to the webernet, I have now been at it for five + years, often spending far too many hours a day staring at a laptop screen. At first, I worked for clients who essentially paid me to spend time learning to implement websites for all sorts of gnarly tasks like e-commerce, photo management and galleries, content management systems, forums, client relationship management systems, interactive education environments and so on. Yikes.

After working in this way for a while and flowing with the web trends, I started to focus in on the dream of a truly mobile lifestyle. The ability to make enough dosh to sustain room, board and transportation while traveling indefinitely.

Let's be clear: The mobile lifestyle wasn't exactly a foreign concept to me. I have been more or less living that way for over a decade. The difference is: I haven't been making my entire income online. I end up working for clients or picking up small jobs here and there wherever I am, but all these things do is distract from the online pursuit of the dream!

A classic Catch 22 situation: you have to make money today to pay the bills so you can't work on what you know will bring you a truly viable, steady and primarily automated income 4-6 months from now.

Sure, any of us could stay up all night drinking all kinds of crazy caffeinated fluids, and just huff it out for 6 months to make it happen. But I am not disposed to reveling in extreme behaviors, even if they do achieve results. I am more of the Wu-Wei type of dude: action through non-action. Plus, all that sitting makes my back hurt.

And that's where BANS fits in, and the great article that I came across this morning.

Build a Niche Store is one of the hottest ways to create automated-income-generating web entities. The article is about an upcoming series that will "focus on a very specific methodology you can follow each week, to build a Niche Store Empire that will generate income for years to come!"

With just a little time every day, you can build systems that will work for you in the years to come. The initial investment is under $200 - most of the "investment" is actually your time. And one of the coolest things about it is that you don't actually have to "sell" anything. You never interact with the folks that make you money! Kiss those pesky clients goodbye. ;)

I will be documenting my progress with BANS stores here at Money Flows.

I just came across a really good, unbiased review of Forex-Killer.com. The author outlines quite clearly how those who add their affiliate links to any review of a product or service through the sale of which they stand to gain is inherently biased and, hence, flawed.

Somewhere between that review and blatant web marketing lies mo.neyflo.ws

The fact is, I've got to make money to pay the bills. That's why I do the "Due Diligence" for folks when it comes to the opportunities I publish not here on the money flows blog, but on the main page.

The fact is, there are a lot of scams out there, and you have to be aware. Forex Killer is NOT a scam. With applied effort, you will make money using this method.
