Amazon Webstore - Anyone Having Success?

4 replies
I've been searching for days for dropshippers within a particular niche to set up an ecommerce site with no success, so I'm considering trying out an Amazon Associate store. Has anyone had any success with an ecommerce store that runs off of Amazon commissions? Would also welcome tips on finding dropshippers!

    This is an interesting idea. I have also been looking into this option as well. I have found mixed reviews.
    You have to make sure you pick a popular niche to sell from, otherwise you will not make any money.

    If you use the search function here with the keyword amazon you will find a few massive long posts and re-replies about setting up amazon niche sites and amazon review site.

    In a nutshell, the complaint is that the commission is very low - like 2-4% or something, but the counter is that you can make VERY GOOD profits, but you have to pick higher value products and target your keywords for focused buyer keywords..

    Yeah, it seems the trouble is with the volume-based commissions. This could possibly be offset by creating many niche sites like this under the same associate account. Anybody doing this? I know WP has some plugins for this kind of thing.
