Tips to Make $ online during the holidays

[DeePower]

Christmas is just around the corner. There's still time to set up a blog or website to promote gifts through amazon.com and Ebay. Make recommendations, reviews, or suggestions then link through your affiliate link to the products. Come up with a ten best of list, like the ten best Christmas movies, books, or music.

Offer a suggestion a day and set it up on an autoresponder and send it to your list.

Figure out a way to use your established list to offer holiday products.

The holidays are also a good time to sell products related to dietary restrictions, weight loss, and stress reduction.

So what are your tips for making money online during the holidays?

Here are a few more tips

Make a package of Holiday themed graphics, small buttons, and banners and sell to others.

Send your list a free gift, no strings attached. No sales pitch in the message.

Give away a product in exchange for a donation to the charity of your choice, food banks always need extra provisions during the holiday.

The Drupal CMS (my favorite) has a cool Amazon module that lets you import products directly from Amazon... with your affiliate link!

I think setting up niche "stores" could be a good way to go, maybe combined with some RSS feeds that are related, and of course blog posts and PLR content:
- home electronics
- "patriotic" toys (ie made in your home country)
- book lists for different niches
- theme like Harry Potter, Star Wars, etc.

There is also a commercial eBay module that can easily be added that creates really nice stores:

Drupal is a fantastic system and can be added easily if you have Fantastico.
