Wp Zon Builder vs associate-o-matic

I would say neither

I'll tell you why - the net is absolutely saturated with sites pulling products off the Amazon web service (API). It is so tempting just to create a massive site full of products in what you like to think is a 'niche' (but is actually usually far too wide, because it's such a temptation to flood your site with products). Most people get nowhere with this. Whatever people say about duplicate content not being a problem, in this case it IS, I assure you! There will be little to differentiate your site from the gazillions of other Amazon-based sites.

Try an experiment: find any Amazon product, let's say, this one: Amazon.com: Canon PowerShot S95 10 MP Digital... .

Now pick a longish sentence at random from a user review, put it in quotes, and put it into Google (here, I've done an example: "The second major complaint about the S-90 was that the function selection ring on the rear moved too easily." - Google Search).

How many results do you see? That's what you're dealing with. And I'd say a huge percentage of those sites are running AOM.

What's the solution? Promoting individual products on a blog using your own unique angle, reviews etc. I am personally pretty sure you will get much further with that approach. My 10 pence...

I use WP Zon Builder for inexpensive high volume Amazon products and find the software effective for this role.

Method 1 - write a Wordpress post with 100% unique content and use Zon Builder just for one related product, it creates a nice display.

Method 2 - use the Zon Builder to list a number of products. I know you can list 50 but I don't. I only display a few products by category and then edit the descriptions so there is some unique content. I also add a few related articles to the blog with a category titled "articles" and have text links to the products.

Zon Builder also comes with a widget where your top selling products can be added as a text link in the sidebar.

It works for me.

I would recommend Fresh Store Builder and/or Affiliate Niche Script.

Both have advantages.
