We all know that Amazon offers low cookie period of just 24 hours on its products. Affiliates have to make up for the low cookie period in some way or the other. Having more than one website is a good option to earn more with Amazon. How do you think you can make up for the 24 hour cookie period?
Promote items that people are likely to buy online rather than hands on products that people would prefer to try out first. Otherwise Amazon does the rest, they are great at up selling so it's generally quite easy for your visitors to make the purchase. What you probably don't know is that the 24 hour cookie is only to visit the site, if your visitor places a product in their shopping cart you then get a 30 day cookie on that product while it is in their cart
the best way to make a lot of money from amazon is by targeting "buying stage keywords".. it will make higher conversion rate..
No not really, some easy buyer keywords are as simple as: "Where to buy (product)" "Where to buy (product) online" "Best price for (product)" "Best place to buy (product)" And so on. Obviously those are simple buyer keywords, you can go a lot more in depth to find more related directly to your product, but the above will work with any product because people would be searching for them in order to purchase.
One short question concerning this issue. If a visitor uses my aff-link of a specific product and is redirected to amazon.com, do I earn a commission if he buys another product, rather the one he used my specific link for?
Rene, you'll get commissions for anything that they buy that's eligible within 24 hours of them clicking your link.
