So, I've got a niche, I've got a bunch of products and I want to put some articles on the site I'm setting up for this niche. What I want to know is, do you guys have your site in the style of a shop where you simply list the products in your niche and then when the user hits "Buy" it links out through to Amazon, or, do you make an article for each product and link through to Amazon that way? All views on this are welcome. Thanks in advance, K
Try to make a shop and write and publish unique product articles. Use different associateids for shop and for articles. Compare your income after couple of months. And you'll find the best way to sell your niche products.
I used to use the free snowblind theme but sales very tiny so I decided to opt for the best package which include all good article content with SEO optimized, good looking and exciting theme with videos and best selling products as well. PM me if you want to see some of my site
I write an article/review for most of the stuff I promote. It makes them feel like you're not another money maker idiot but actually know about this product.
Write in-depth reviews and explanations on why the products are worth buying. You won't make sh*t from simply trying to redirect traffic, because 1) you're not getting people interested in the product, and 2) your content won't mean sh*t to the search engines because it's useless. Original content is the future. Look at Google's recent index update - they are weeding out the crap, and I love it.
It is best to do both methods. Have an online store selling the amazon products and then also have a blog attached and write reviews about each product, this will give your readers a sense of trust and make them think you know what you are talking about. For the online store you need a site that will stand out and not look like all the other amazon sites out their. I use and recommend WP Shop builder as an easy way to make nice looking amazon stores in wordpress.
