Dear Fellow HubPage members and affiliate marketers:

Over the past few months there have been many reports that eBay Partner Network is moving to a business model where their affiliate marketers will have to link to eBay directly from websites that they own. This poses a huge problem for EPN members who have been linking from capsule boxes in sites like HubPages, Squidoo and Blogger blogs. In this series of Hubs I'll try my hardest to walk you through of the process of making your own eBay Partner Network website. At first the steps involved seem very daunting. But, once you get the hang of it you'll be able to bang out your own websites really easily.

Picking a niche to market in EPN - the choices are endless

Below I've posted a YouTube video tutorial which teaches you how to come up with ideas for pages of your eBay Partner Network website. Let to your own means it's sometimes hard to come up with ideas. On EPN you can pick any niche you want. Some people like big-ticket niches (Rolex watches, cars etc) while some people like cheaper items. Personally, I like to mix it up a bit.

This video tutorial shows you how to find ideas for your content pages

In this video tutorial you'll learn to find the appropriate category for your niche then scroll through eBay's pages to find ideas for website pages. It's very important that you do this in advance of building your website. Otherwise your site might get extremely disorganized and the search engines simply won't like it. In the beginning I recommend to make 10-page websites. Why? Because a 10-page site is very easy to manage. If you start out with a 200-page site you'll go bezerk and want to quit. Once your 10-page site is indexed by the search engines you can start adding more pages (Google wants you to constantly add more pages to your website, which can be a drag).

Go ahead and watch the video - If you have any questions please let me know in the comments section. Thanks.
