Amazon Affiliate websites

7 replies
Im going to outsource the creation of Amazon Affiliate website's.

I want to know a few things though before i start looking for outsourcers as i obviously want things to go as smoothly as possible and not end up a few months down the line with a bunch of site's that are not ranking on Google and bringing in sales.


1. Which are the best site's to look for quality outsourcers? Although i want to outsource most of the process, im prepared to promote the website's.

2. Approximately how long would it take to build 1 site including the Niche research, product selection, writing product reviews, keyword research, etc...

3. Is it best to state that im looking for someone who specifically has experience in creating Amazon Affiliate site's or would it be ok as long as they just have SEO experience and good review writing skills?


Im only going to be outsourcing 10 site's at first to see how it goes. Jan Roo's did mention that you can $4000 per month from just 10 site's although i don't expect to reach that income level, even half that amount would be good.

In case your wondering why im not doing it myself, it's because i want to concentrate on other things so im outsourcing it.

    I've had great success with odesk.com, just make sure you set your parameters very clearly. And don't always go with the cheapest contract. How much is your frustration level worth? Lastly, give the person a test run to see if they can accomplish the goal.

      Thanks for the advice. I was wondering if it would be best to just get a few website's created first but it takes about 3 or 4 months to see if the site get's indexed on Google so it sounds like it could be quite time consuming.

        It doesn't take 3 to 4 months for Googl to index your site. 3 to 4 months is a good time frame to rank on page one of google for a fairly competitive keyword where the money is at.

        Most of the time you will rank much quicker than 3 to 4 months but by allowing yourself 3 to 4 months will ensure that you follow through and not get sidetracked 2 weeks down the line when you get another email from a guru promising the next big thing that requires no work or money.

        As far as outsourcing goes, look at onlinejobs.ph or places like odesk but you need to make sure you know what needs to be done beforehand so that you can instruct your employees and in many cases train them. The process will take time in the beginning but once you got your system in place you will be good to go and your business will run pretty much hands free which is where I am almost at right now.

        Hope that helps,

          Ive got your ebook so i'll give the outsourcer all the advice i can from there. Also i have Neil's Amazon video course.

          Once the site's are created, how often do you add new reviews to the site's so they are kept up-to-date with newer products?

    Odesk.com, guru.com & elance.com are good places for outsource work.

  • 3 or 4 months to rank, where are you getting your info xD can be anywhere from a few minutes to a few weeks depending on how you go about it.

    You can earn 4,000 with 10 sites off the bat, but only if you are extremely lucky in the choice of keywords, layout and so forth.

    Takes time to find the right combination for choosing the right products and increasing conversions. Once you know the formula to this, skys the limit with how much any one site can earn.

    I'm actually outsourcing exactly this right now.

    Here's a post where I describe it.

    In that post I talk about it taking one day to implement a site but I'm talking just about the writing here, not the niche research or the article marketing to promote the site. And I'm specifically using a "model" for the sites that comes from a course I bought. You can do this any number of ways but if you are going to outsource it you may as well buy a manual and GIVE it to your guy to implement.

    OnlineJobs.ph is definitely one of the best places to hire. You'll get your own full time person there.

    Yeah, you COULD earn $4k from 10 sites but they would have to be pretty substantial sites, not the kind of sites I'm building right now which are focused on 5-10 reviews per niche market (i.e. per site).

    Expect that you'll need to build several dozen of these to get paid well. But they don't take long to build.
