    aStore is still pretty primitive, although I'm sure it'll improve. It's not nearly as flexible as AOM. I would say that if you already have a site and want to add some Amazon products, aStore is the way to go. If you have site on something other than a PHP-capable server, then aStore is the way to go. However, if you want to create a brand new site quickly, AOM works pretty well.

    astore is based on iframe meaning little to no se benefits. I would suggest and use AOM.

    AOM is a must. Can be used on multiple sites (I use it on around 12 sites at present), I'd suggest the paid version for the cost of it. Fairly easily configurable with CSS.

    I've been experiencing nothing but growth since I installed AOM.

    I run one site and yesterday I made sales for about $2,800 and commission of about $147. AOM is da bomb :)

    I posted more info in my article about my progress...

    thanks guys!
    Though I like the default yellow-black color scheme but I am interested in seeing some layout examples so if any of you have seen some AOM stores with different designs please let me know.

    Hi Fahd,

    I'm developing a PHP script to make aStores search engine friendly. I started another thread called "Crawable aStore" but in case you haven't seen it please take a look at http://www.adbabel.com/adsense-seo/ and let me know what you think.

    thanks!

    I noticed one difference on this site. Here it says "add to shopping cart" clicking on which shows a shopping cart on the site itself while on my site is says "buy it from amazon" clicking on which takes me to amazon site. I tried checking the option to change it but I guess I missed something.

    @Asen Kovachev: I am not sure this site is Fahd's, I just asked him to show me some examples, and its not always wise to share your niche ;)

    Basically this is an option in the full version. There is a "shopping cart" section.

    If you have established site with lots of visitors astore is the way to go.( check out 5staraffiliates blog or forum I forgot - you can make some content on page where astore is for SEO ! )
    If you want to build just store then AOM.

    I am using 30 day trial version and have my "shopping cart" option to "yes", still I don't on-site shopping cart. Will play with it for some more to see if I am missing something.

    thanks
