Enable commission-based selling

There are numerous manufacturers as well as sellers who are willing to sell in the market and make a profit.

Sometimes, people really don’t want to take all the trouble of managing online inventory, photography and all. Such sellers can bring an amazing opportunity for you to earn a commission.

Once, you start getting the sales from your store, you can earn by contacting such business enthusiasts. With their due permission, you can upload their products and can charge a commission on sales of those products.

When you are just getting started, we would recommend you to talk with local manufacturers/artisans or the ones you will find in your local seller panel.

On one hand, you will acquire the monetary benefits of selling those products, while, on the other hand, this will improve your sales score as well as improve your inventory categories.

Google AdSense

Otherwise, there can be a chance that your competitors acquire all the benefits of your display ads if you choose the same industry as that of yours.

You will be paid the commission charge on the sales made via clicking on the displayed link on your site.

Advertising Networks

Other than Google Adsense, there are numerous advertising networks that follow different payment models like Pay per click (PPC), Pay per view(PPV, payment starts with per 1000 views cycle), and pay per action (PPA).

To opt for such advertising networks, you can simply Google them to get the list. However, we would suggest you choose them wisely because of the content they display may/may not be censored. And, especially for your e-commerce site, such sites can be problematic as they can be linked with the sites involved in phishing activities.
