Although it took me like 3-4 weeks to develop plugin and 1-2 weeks to setup themes. So basically what I did is following:
- Research on good niche (not Harry Potter's once that has been used in above journey)
- Develop Plugin from scratch as I need few advance stuff to be add like.
- Double the price of current product.
- Add random value to increase price as regular and used doubled price as sale and represent as discount stuff.
- Add Simple product & Variable products (things like color & size)
- Used aliexpress images as I own budget VPS with limited space I can't store all the images so plugin override default image function and get me products images from AliExpress with variables or so.
- Need Extra descriptions and Images from AliExpress as API won't provide much info.
- And finally auto posting and updating stuff (but I am doing manually posting often due to limited proxies and avoid anti-bot program)
- Modified themes Basically I am using Nielsen E-Commerce theme for WordPress I need to modify it a little bit like showing how many % user can get discount instead of on sale tag. Modify to get images from AliExpress and show variation of products.
- Add Facebook page and now I am buying fake Facebook likes to get some jump start there.
- Free shipping.
My Future plans
- Order couple of Premium written articles
- Buy Few Backlink packages
- Do some manually seo and promoting via social media
- And hopefully do some PPC using adwords.
That's pretty much all. I am pretty much open for suggestions. If you like to review my site please pm me.
Thanks!
