my astore was index 1 weeked and on 3rd page of search engine how to drive it up on 1st page now I'm wait for first order
Your not going to like this answer at all. I've had some incredible Google rankings for good keywords and other then some dribs and drubs, nada. I'm making more on adsense. IE, for the keywords "2009 HDTV", I'm ranked 3rd on page 1 for 2009hdtv.com - nothing. "2008 software" for 2008software.com about 8 on page 1 and maybe $5 for 3 months.
I have never made one single dime on an astore. I did not see any sales from Amazon until I put up a couple of Associate-O-Matic stores. God bless those of you that can do it....I just don't see how it can be done so that you can make an income from it. JMO
My personal opinion is that you can eventually make money in it but you need to have patience and fine tune it and have separate URL's. If I don't see a seperate URL for a store, i.e., like my 2008software.com, I wouldn't touch it for anything in the world. Then it has to look professional. I get better Google Rankings when I concentrate on one product. Having said all this, in the 3 months I've owned alot of stores with good Google rankings, I have hardly made anything but I'll give things time.
I setup an aom store not too long ago, have 3 different domains pointing to it, and am starting to see some pretty good traffic.
How many UIP/day for your store ? Don't think to get money from only one way if you can make more money from many ways. Why you don't put adsense in your aStore? If your visitor come to your store but they don't buy anything, they may click on ads and you can get money from adsense. play on the high CPC keyword. From this strategy, I can make money around $20/day from 10 aStore within 2 weeks. all traffic from SEO. see my signature, if you want to do.
I just started with Amazon astore. I've been making money doing the various context links from Amazon, but thought I should try and do a general store in case people wanted to buy something other then my specific product I was promoting. Will see how it goes...
