First thing to do? New E-Commerse site.

Once your website is complete it's time to start marketing it. This post I made in another thread last week should help give you some basic direction!

For Affiliate marketing, you need to advertise your product or take an assist of SEO and SEM service for getting the best marketing. Because, marketing is a very important part of an affiliate marketing.

The biggest thing you need to do is actually research your niche.

The worst thing that one can do is to assume that an 'online shopping mall' will actually convert/rank.

The thing is, is that Google looks for Relevancy and Popularity when they rank sites. This means, if you have un'related' products, then Google is confused. They also assume that your visitors will be confused.

They like targeted traffic based on specific keywords.

This means, that any keyword you have on subsequent pages need to be derived from your main cornerstone content keyword by relevance. This is a proximity notion, organized by Google.

If your keywords are separated proximally, Google will not reward you.

Also, you need to stay away from focusing too much on PRODUCTS. You need to focus on your target audience and tailor you site to them. Selling in an excellent way will bring loyalty. Selling products for the sake of selling products can be detrimental.

Sell to people - and sales of products will flow.

Well, for a good affiliate marketer, you need to think about the products what you want to sell and have a good knowledge about those products. Apart from that, as you mentioned you will do affiliate marketing with Amazon, then you need to think about terms, conditions as well as suggestion whatever Amazon recommends you regarding products. After that write a blog and post into your website and promote it as well on social media sites. These are best ways to become a good affiliate marketer.

After the website is ready, you need to start marketing for your business, firstly solve the SEO issues from the website and then do successful marketing so that to generate traffic for the website.Design of your website is not so impressive, redesign your website and impress your visitors.
