Landing Page for Amazon (and others)

by bacardi

When you do say a review for a product for Amazon (or any others), do you send your traffic directly to that product, and would this help sales.

I just send them to the homepage as my thinking is the links will be good always, and let the visitors visit wherever they want.

As I don't want to have say 10,000 products over a period of time, and links are dead, items are no longer sold with no pages etc, is this best way?

    Of course sending people directly to the product. If the product doesnt exist anymore amazon will give their "Sorry" and show a related list of products, which is far better than just sending them to the frontpage.

    And just out of curiosity, do you have a website with 10,000 product reviews? That sounds like a lot.

    Check out my blog GenuineOnlineMarketing.com where I talk about building Amazon and Adsense Niche Websites.

    Over 800 Amazon Reviews for $1 - No way?

      I used to have a site with over 125,000 products, ReviewSaver, 8000 unique's a day. Ran it for close to 7 years, Panda update killed the business as it was a lot of scraped products and descriptions.

      So jacked it in and starting over but doing it properly now, just doing a Blog, been doing it for 5 months or so now, up to 300 unique's a day, have around 80 products, nowhere close to 10,000.

      Was just saying, I would rather send person to home maybe, than maintain links and send visitors to sorry pages over the long-term. From what I see from sales I have sold things like treadmills and baby blenders, but have done zero reviews for things like this, I just review the things I have had first hand experience using or owning.

    I do very well as an Amazon associate and that's all I do. You definitely want to send people directly to the product page from your own landing page or review page.

    So sorry to hear about your site getting ruined by panda bacardi. Although I had some good improvements from the panda update, but it seems the overall IM community suffered a lot.

    My best wishes so that you can make a better recovery.

      I've been selling Amazon products longer than Google has been around. And been doing it in almost exactly the same way over the years and through all of their algorithm changes - by article syndication.

      All traffic is driven directly to my sales pages and funnel system by articles regularly published in tens of thousands of ezines, blogs/websites, and even offline publications such as magazines and newspapers.

      An excellent explanation of this time-tested marketing model is covered in detail in this classic Clickbank ebook: Turn Words Into Traffic (non-affiliate link)
