what is the best Amazon script to install ?

Interesting to know what the number of clicks you need roughly to earn $100 per day from Amazon. I'm not even close

For those who felt the crash what happened? Did you go from say 100,000 pages in google to 0 or did you have a page rank of 7 that went to a 2 (or a combination of both)?

 

Back in the Amazon gold rush days I was geting almost 10,000 pageviews a day, got to having a high of about 1,000,000 AWS URLs indexed in Google, and made $12,500 in six months, one quarter being the holiday season. Now I get a few hundred pageviews a day. So far this quarter I've made $296.75. Only reason I kept the sites after the crash is because you don't have to do any work on them, but just let them just sit there generating orders over time. Odds are my earnings would be higher if I wasn't too lazy to make the stores unique. They all use MrRats script using the original template with no design change. Now I'm guessing I have maybe 300,000 URLS indexed, and most have been downgraded to being Supplemental Results. On the plus side, they give me about 100,000 in CO-OP weight!

When they say make a lot of sites, they really do mean a LOT. I got 27 AWS domains and about five video game sites that have a store.

 

Damn Wacko King :/ 27!! Thats too much :/ But hey if it gave you all that earning at the beginning then you had your reasons Good job.

 

To make a profit, all you need to make per year is about $10 per domain!!!! I made over half of those domains AFTER the AWS crash!!!! I had less than 10 AWS domains when I had the Amazon Gold Rush!!!

 

Nintendo, if you don't mind a question about this.......

Do you have all these aws sites on the same server, or to you get different hosting accts for each?

 

even after the supplemental results you get that much weight?

 

Wow! Congrats to those who r earning high with Amazon.

Hey, I can do the same thing on my site...

Thanks for sharing!

 

You can have a try of MrRat.com

 

And he's da King at making AWS scripts!!!

 

Hi all, just in and introducing myself,

Thought I might mention that I am using a free affiliate script script from http://www.affiliate-developer.com - seod, installs in a couple of minutes and quiet adapt at setting up niche product stores.

i personally didn't like mr ratz script that much, partly because i hate perl, but i found it kinda clunky.

i've done much better on sites using my own scripts. i've always wanted to try this - http://www.affiliate-developer.com, however ... here is what is destined to happen - http://www.google.com/search?q=site:asm.freekrai.net - 41,700 Supplemental Results

 

I recently purchased Ghost scripter and few problems for two days but i was able to figure out. It's feels very easy now..

Based on Gtech posting .... i prefered ghostscripter.

I would say if you know little bit of php and mysql ghostscripter is pretty good ....

 

Has anyone heard from ghost scripter lately?

I've tried a few emails but no reply. We have been at version 5.0.5 for awhile now and their are a few bugs that I would like to see addressed (like the wrong price coming up for some products in the search results for one).

 

I just converted my amazon book store FREEBS from WDSL 3 to WDSL 4. Assuming the app you cite is WDSL 4, it's easy to see how pricing can get fudged. The XML return records are not consistant. It sucks in fact IMO! Had to write too much code to deal with the differences.

For instance, if you get customer reviews and there is only one, you get this array back...
$item[CustomerReviews][Review][Rating].

If there is is more then one review you get...
$item[CustomerReviews][Review][0][Rating]
$item[CustomerReviews][Review][1][Rating]
etc.

I'm not impressed with that.

Pricing is confusing too. There are several places to draw from such as special offers.

 

Excellent advice.

 

I know what you mean. I've done a fair number of changes to ghostscripter and I have spent a few long nights stepped through the code dealing with pricing. When you return a list of products (from a search or a node selection) You have list prices for an item and then the FormattedPrice from different offers. YOu then have to find the merchantid for amazon in the offers array and it may not always be there so I then use the list price. Then when you do a detailed view of the product you may get a different amazon price again (it may not even match there price listed under there merchant id). I've checked a few nodes at ghostscripters demo site (which must be a newer unreleased version) and they are bringing up different product prices that I have some of the time and they are correct (not always but a lot more than my site currently runnin 5.0.5)

 

Thanks for the reply. When I posted that, I honestly was wondering if it was me not seeing something right. At least now I know I'm not crazy!

Amazon really blew it IMO. They need to make the return objects consistant by getting the ladder consistant.

 

Well I lost the thread it seems. But someone suggested trying the Pear::Services_Amazon class to use the api. Well I coded a class to use this and I am amazed at how well it works and how fast it is! It blows nusoap away!

But it does not solve the inconsistant object return, ya still gotta code to deal with that. However, for the speed and ease of use, it's a winner!

Thanks to whoever that was.

 

All on the same server and same IP address. Google themselves have said they don't bann IP addresses.

 

fun to see I participated in the active modification of Mr Rat amazon scripting
