Hello, I'm newbie too here, i just wanna share my little experience how to create an amazon associates store. First I install "APF script" by Mr. Ratt under cgi folder, that script could connect my web to Amazon as an associate. I also need "APF Brigde" by Dean Marshall (Since I'm using Joomla here) to make APF script working on my Joomla site. For the example you could check it here : BestBuyZon I created it by two weeks ago and still working on it , hope it could help you although a little. Sincerely.
You are referring to Target.com the corporation and Im quite sure they sell their own stuff...there are scripts out there to build an amazon store and it can be done. You need to know that simple building an amazon powered or whatever product feed site and not adding any new articles or product reviews probably won't get much traffic organically. To be a successful affiliate you have to publish alot of unique content and get the search engines to value your site if you want it to rank. Im sure you have heard it before but its true.
If you own a site/blog, I can tell you how to earn fixed income by publishing ads. PM me if interested.
Everytime I see someone write out "I know exactly the answer to what your thread is asking ...but, I wont post it...PM me" Its basically saying " Hey! I have something to sell you!!" Frank
