    Use the iframe Amazon supplies in well optimized html pages and add content to the top of the page and more content under the iframe.

    Attach a blog on its own directory

    for example

    www.youriframesite.com/blog

    Use blog posts several times a week to pull in traffic for mid to long term keywords....and then link to your sites product pages...

    You can then use any tracking code you like on your html pages....

    Just a hint.....SEO does not typically drive the most targeted "buy mind" consumers.....PPC and other advertising on relevant related sites will do much more in terms of revenue earnings...

    ;)

    This is kinda late and no one has answered your question, maybe this may help someone else.

    I have not used google analytics but I do use phpmyvisit which is roughly the same thing. What I do is build a web page and embed the astore iframe in my web page. I like to place the javascript code that needs to be in each webpage for tracking and statistic informaiton below the astore iframe, but it doesn't matter where the code goes.

    I use php on all my pages so I have a page just for the tracking script and include('tracking.php'); near the bottom of the webpage.

    Salam n Hola

    You can actually put a tracking code into your amazon astore directly. Well, at least statcounter tracking code, that is. I picked this up from this thread.

    You can insert your statcounter code into the astore CSS. Yes, some CSS modification is required. Not very difficult to do, though. Following is where you can insert the statcounter code for your astore.

    /* PLEASE REMOVE STATCOUNTER CODE AND REPLACE WITH YOUR OWN TO TRACK YOUR VISITS */
    body {
    margin:0px 0px 0px 11px;
    padding:0px;
    background:#FFFFFF;
    color:#000000;
    main-width:748px;
    font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;
    font-size:10pt;
    font-weight:500;
    line-height:12pt;
    text-decoration: none;
    background: #FFFFFF url(http://c45.statcounter.com/3674216/0/7b310ea3/1/);
    /* PLEASE REMOVE STATCOUNTER CODE AND REPLACE WITH YOUR OWN TO TRACK YOUR VISITS */
    }

    The tracking code you use above is created using statcounter's HTML Only counter. This gives you somewhat limited stats. It will not be possible to record the referring link, page title and other information. You still get a decent tracking stats, however. This should be sufficient if you are using astore on its own - not embedding it inside another website where you can insert the full tracking code.

    Hope the above helps.

    My thank you goes to our fellow member Chip01 for showing me the technique above.

    statcounter's html code is a very good option
    it can go on any page that does not support java. like myspace etc and astore
