    Hi,

    Is it okay that I target traffic to astore using PPC (adwords/yahoo/msn) etc?
    Is it allowed by amazon.com ?

    Yes it is allowed by amazon, check their TOS. You just want to make sure you are targeting quality traffic and be careful not to spend too much on that traffic. You know?

    its fine and would be a waste not to - just watch the conversion on Adsense clicks vs Amazon clicks. Depending on the size of your store you should make more on Adsense but it would be a shame to lose out on the one Kindle conversion :)

    Don't use the word 'Amazon' as one of your keywords.
    Thats against their rules.

    I agreed with "honeydesign" because send traffic directly to Amazon may get more conversion than astore, it's more reliability, more intraction and also has vary of relative products.
    How do you think?;)

    Aside from not using Amazon in your keywords, be sure to add a negitive for the word amazon too [-amazon],[-amazon.com] as your keyword may be "sony laptops" but if you have that as a broad search keyword and the users searches "sony laptops amazon" then you could be violating Amazon TOS
