hi, im in the middle of doing my 1st affiliate site, i know i will make mistakes along the way but want to get off to a good start, im doing outdoor clothing - is there anyway of finding out what are the most popular items sold on amazon for my specific niche cheers
Check the best sellings items here - http://www.amazon.com/bestsellers Look at the various categories in the left menu.
I wouldn't go with what ranks the best on amazon, go with what you think your websites audience will buy. Construct the widgets so that you can put five items on each one. You will be making money in no time.
