Any tips on making a WP Amazon Store work would be appreciated

I'm playing around with an Amazon Store plugin on Wordpress based site using a reincarnated dropped domain that's still listed on the Amazon Directory, nice seeing a tiny bit of pr at the start. (wow? 8% commissions)

Is it working for anyone, or are a few strategically placed links in review articles beating 100s of product pages?

There were reports of .info domain BANS sites getting de-indexed a while back, I'm guessing the lower effort to include original content on these $2 sites had more to the problem than the .info part.

I have a static front page with unique useful content, and a couple of original posts, in addition to the automatic Amazon Store pages.

Any have concrete experience with unique-ifying the sales copy helping search rank.

I assume longer product descriptions are helpful for indexing, even if 'duplicate'

is is really important to trickle in catalog page posts, I don't expect it to have the weight or importance of articles.

I can't image that cloaking Anazon affiliate links would make any difference in the context of a catalog site.

Any tips appreciated.
