You don’t want Google to see your site as a thin affiliate site! The best way to avoid looking like a thin affiliate site to Google is by not being a thin affiliate site.
Let’s face it, out of the box, BANS is a thin site. Full of ads, zero content and a huge footprint for Google to see. The days of setting up a Build a Niche Store site out of the box and moving on to the next site are long gone. Todays search engine algorithms are so complex and dynamic that we have to be sure that each page in a website stands out and is completely unique.
One way we can accomplish this using the Build a Niche Store system is by setting up a store one page at a time. This can be a long drawn out process rather than a quick installation but definately pays off in the long run. Build your store page by page making sure each page will be seen by the search engines as unique, relavent content that is helpful to an index.
A good way to do this is through a Wordpress front end and a Build a Niche Store backend. Writing articles and setting up themes is much more difficult than the other way but can pay off bigtime in the long run. One way you can go about setting up a BANS site one page at a time is by writing an article for your Wordpress install and then setting up a BANS page for that article. Then just link to your BANS page through your article. Rinse and repeat. Going about things in this manner not only looks more natural to the search engines, it is more natural. We need to think of the BANS system as a tool for a website rather than as the entire website.
