PriceSpread.com is a huge site, a hyper market offering hundred thousand plus products for everyday use. Implemented using affiliate datafeeds, each and every product is linked via the site's affiliate code. Any product sold will generate commission for the site. All the products are from established and reputed companies who are leaders in their field. The site's revenue potential is virtually limitless. And you can add as many more datafeeds as you or your server can handle. Datafeed from virtually any merchant can be integrated. Google or YPN ads can be a secondary source of revenue.

Technology Behind the Site

Built based on PHP/MySQL, it uses a custom script to import the data into MySQL and display in various formats. One can search for products based on keywords, or browse by merchant, category or brand. Displayed list of goods can be formatted further by relevancy, ratings or price - higher or lower price first. Whenever there are two similar products from different merchants, price comparison is automatically shown. Users can leave comments and rate products which is shown on the site after Admin approval.

All URLs are "statically" generated for search engines. Each merchant, each category, each brand, and each product has its own "static" URL. Featured products can be displayed on the front page. New datafeeds can be set-up to be downloaded automatically in most cases, as frequently as you wish - daily, weekly, monthly. These can be further imported into the site's database automatically. Once set-up, all updates can, in most cases, take place without human intervention. Of course, where automation may not be possible, the job can always be done manually - a simple procedure and anyone familiar with using a web browser will be able to handle it.

Site's Overhead Expenses

While you will decide on the marketing budget to promote the site, there are minimal overheads in running it - all you pay is for hosting and renewal of the domain name. We would recommend you to get a hosting account that will provide a high-performance server with large storage space, say 5GB, and bandwidth, say 100GB, the typical cost for which would be $10-$15 per month. SSH facility in hosting is recommended for importing large datafeeds manually when required.

PriceSpread.com - Domain Name

You must have heard the names of PriceLine.com, PriceGrabber.com, PriceRunner.com etc. You know how big these sites are. This domain name is in the same category and, as a domain name, is superior and probably more valuable than these. While it would be certainly possible to build a site like this on another domain name, PriceSpread.com is a gem - would be worth in high 5-figures for the name alone.
