We have made a lot money selling products directly on Amazon...but you can make good money as an affiliate too...it's 100% free to list on amazon...you don't pay a fee until the product sells....once we moved to Amazon our sales increased dramatically.
I thought you paid a monthly fee to be on Amazon? I think that is the case in the UK as I have some clients who do this..
Forgive me, I am new to this forum and I am considering starting an Amazon store but I am confused. Are you talking just about the affiliates program? Does it allow you to use Amazon to direct visitors to your own store? I don't like Amazon because everybody's "store" looks the same and it takes several clicks to get to it. Can someone point me in the right direction to figure out how all this works? dptom
In my opinion, the best way to use Amazon as an E-Commerce Stand In is like this: 1. Build an authoritative website in your particular niche or market. 2. Sign Up For Email Marketing 3. Drive tons of traffic to the website 4. Create an E Book or Free Offer out of the content you've written, or create something completely original to compliment it. 5. Capture Email addresses in your Email Marketing Campaign with the all that traffic. 6. Create an Astore from Amazon that MATCHES your website color layout. 7. The key is to make it blend in so your Astore looks like an E Commerce store you created with Amazon Products. 8. Use your email list to send relevant product reviews and more Free Tips and Guides.
