Saying that you have personally used “Shoplincs, Zlio and Amazon’s aStore” … is that to say you have used to purchase products and/or sell products?

Well I did try two of them: zlio and bravisa Although I’ve been with zlio for a longer time and It’s doing fine. I wanted to try something else, So I registered with Bravisa a couple a weeks ago. Well… I closed my account yesterday. I didn’t like it… Ugly interface, bad tools and cheap products. So I’ll stick with my zlio shops. Have a nice day

I was just contacted by Tom myself and am in the process of doing a little research on Bravisa to get more background info, which is how I came across this post which I had originally missed on your site.

It does look promising and in the right scenario I think there is some potential here. I’m hoping to hear back from Tom per a few questions and then decide if I want to give it a try.

Thanks for the information. I’m a big believer in testing, testing and testing. It’s the only way you’ll know what works. I checked out Bravisa’s site and I didn’t realize they’ve been around for 3 years? Is this true? It sounds like they’re just marketing. Compared to Chitika they’re nowhere near them in terms of brand awareness. I guess they’ll be working on this. I’d like to test them out though.

Thanks for the headsup. I’m starting a script writing website and I think there are some products that will fit nicely with the content. Love this blog man.

Interestingly enough I received an email from the guys at Bravisa after a recent article I wrote about finding alternative ways to monetize your website. I had a quick look around and it looks like a pretty good model.

Like Justin, I also run a sports based site (cricket this time) and am always looking for some great product sites. Sadly, Bravisa don’t have any cricket stuff but it did offer some other stuff which I might be able to cross sell.

I may well give it a whirl.

I’ve heard about Bravisa not too long ago, but I never got around to check it out myself. Since I’m armed with more information, thanks to this post, I might just give it a try.

Thanx Darren, for letting us know about Bravisa. I feel that there should be strong contender to Amazon.

Thanks for the candid post about Bravisa. I am with the company and wanted to chime in. Some benefits with Bravisa are:
1) Blogger = Retailer as opposed to an Affiliate
This means that you make profits similar to companies like Buy.com or Amazon.com (not like their affiliate programs) without the retailer hassles of having to buy, stock, ship, or service the products. Bravisa takes care of these things.
2) Customization/Personalization
Like Cafepress or Zazzle, with Bravisa you have the capability to create and sell unique products with your images.
3) Growing List of Products
We can add new products that you care about quickly since we have automated the listing of new manufacturers. If you don’t find something you’re excited to sell, let us know and we will contact the manufacturers and try our best to sign them up.

-Tom

Darren,
Thanks for another heads up on a potential source for revenue. I am definitely going to give it a shot. I have a question for you or anyone that may read this, though. What shop or ad service is most compatible with sports oriented blogs? I write on a soccer blog, and I am trying to find an ad service that will consistently provide my readers with the latest and greatest soccer products (for example: cleats, jerseys, etc.), but have not had much luck with finding that service.
