How to Change the ‘Powered By Build A Niche Store’ wording

Rochelle

You can easily change the ‘Powered By Build A Niche Store’ wording on the bottom of your site to something else. In fact, I highly recommend that you do this because if you don’t then your site will be easily found by any one who enters that term into a search engine.

Don’t believe me? Go try it and see all the niche stores that didn’t change this. This may be a great way to spy on the competition but changing it helps keep your niche hidden.


My instructions to change the ‘Powered By Build A Niche Store’ wording:
Step One
	Open the FrontControl.php for your site (click here if you don’t know how to do this).

	Save a copy of the original code (click here for instructions on how to do this).
Step Two
	Decide what you want to change the ‘Powered by Build A Niche Store‘ wording to.

	This link contains your Clickbank affiliate information (assuming, of course, that you entered your ID in the ‘Setup‘ tab of your site’s Admin). Since this is an affiliate link you might want to change the wording to something that will encourage people to click the link so they will purchase Build A Niche Store software.

	NOTE: I suggest you vary what wording you choose to change this link to. In other words, do not use the exact same wording for every one of your BANS sites to prevent people from being able to search for and find all your sites.
Step Three
	Search for the phrase, “Powered by. “

	Change the following green terms to your preferred wording:
	$f .=’ Powered by [this will will not part of the link - you can change the wording or remove wording entirely] <a href=”http://www.buildanichestore.com” mce_href=”http://www.buildanichestore.com”>Build A Niche Store [this will will be the clickable link, aka the anchor text]</a>’;

	Repeat this search and change all additional phrases as needed. Some versions of BANS have more to change than others.

	NOTE: If you want your link to look something like: Build your own store by clicking here (with clicking here being the link with your clickbank affiliate ID) then you would change the ‘Powered by‘ tags to:
	$f .=’ Build your own store by <a href=”http://www.buildanichestore.com” mce_href=”http://www.buildanichestore.com”>clicking here</a>’;

	Save changes and view site for errors.
