Amazon Reviews - One Per Site Test?
I'm looking to try out an Amazon review site in my spare time. I have a great idea for a niche that's been as good as untapped by existing review sites. Over time I'd like to create an authority site with a community backing and list that removes dependence on search engines.
The problem: I'd like to test the waters. The products are relatively high value ($400+) and I'd like to really add value through my reviews - so I want to buy everything that I cover and provide truly honest opinions with professionally shot photos, videos, and 2000+ word reviews. Most of the guides here focus on adding several reviews to a site before it's launched, but I'm reluctant to invest $2000+ on buying products before I know that the idea is viable. But I am prepared to buy one product and create a review for this purpose.
The question: is it possible to do a meaningful test with only one product on a site? I'd be dependent on search engine traffic given the site's absolute infancy. Am I likely to rank well and pull in traffic with only one (top-quality) review?
I'd obviously expect traffic levels and conversion rates to increase once the site has some genuine authority, but I'm keen to see proof of concept (ideally making enough sales to cover the initial product outlay!).
Thanks!
