Authority review site VS Affiliate store site

Hello Warriors,

I would like to know your opinions or experience on these two internet marketing methods.

Do you recommend starting a review site and link your chosen niche to Amazon?

Or start an online shop with hundreds of products linked to Amazon (or Aliexpress)?

Is there an advantage of one of them over the other? Is one of them more profitable on the long run?

I would be grateful for any advice you have for me on the matter. Gotta be sure which direction I should take my first steps to success, hopefully!

    I've always done better with the review site. In fact, it's one of my favourite models.

    I would also go with affiliate review site, it basically allows you to take other people's authority while reviewing their product, it converts better as well

    It has to be a specific niche to target to make money. If it's a store with no specific theme (too broad), it ain't work..

    Because of how the search engines work, it's better to have a review site. The only time I've seen stores work well is for like Youtubers with really big followings on YT and the other social media sites. Having a review site will also allow you to build a list, which acts as like a second income stream for your blog.

    Definitely the review site. It's a lot easier to rank your review articles IMO. Besides, anyone can pull info from Amazon and post it in an online store. I think when people consider buying something they would much rather read a detailed review than just see the item listed in an online store.
