Amazon aStore ownership? (How to change it)

by osekdomains

Hello.
I am in process of selling my ecommerce website that contains Adsense and Amazon aStore. I already have a buyer so I need to do these things:
- change domain ownership (figured that out)
- change hosting (I'll just zip my website and include database file - send it to buyer so he/she can set it up on their server)
- Adsense: I'll remove them (who knows what the new owner will do with the website) - I will leave the wordpress plugin so he/she can paste their own code
- Amazon aStore: I don't have this one figured out

The easiest way would be to change Tracking ID of the store. But if I change tracking ID to the new owner's tracking ID do I revoke the ownership of the store? Again I don't want to risk my Amazon Associates account in case the new owner does something stupid with the site.

    Step by step...

    Change Domain - ez one and you figured that out

    Change Hosting - Zip the entire site directory and export the database so you should have 2 files (1 ZIP and 1 SQL)

    AdSense - Just replace your code with a <--- 300x250 AdSense Code Here --- > what ever the size is you have (let them create it and insert it)

    Amazon A Store, either leave yours up or just put on that page they need to setup the A Store code from Amazon and place this code here on this page. You cant just change the ID to there ID. Either give them directions or leave your up so they see how it was done.

    If you are selling this site to womeone who doesnt know how to install / manage a new wordpress install you might want to give some directions on after they get there files up and sql loaded there are things still needed besides the above

    Change all emails
    Change all site links
    Change home page link
    etc etc .. which are not hard to do but necessary

    If you need more help then my general info, hit me up

    I have a similar question specifically regarding the Amazon astore. I am purchasing niche blogs with the astores and need to change the store to myself. I'm signed up with astore already. What sort of code do I need to change? These are all wordpress sites.
    Thanks for your previously reply and content.
    Sincerely,
    Marty

    I would suggest to send an email to Amazon first and consult them on the proper steps to do this in order to avoid any troubles in the future. As an Amazon tool developer, Ive always sent an email to Amazon first asking for their permission before begin to develop a product so that it will not be against their TOS. Hope that helps.

      Wow sending an email to Amazon is easier said than done. I've searched and searched and can't find out how. I tried finding it before posting here. I feel really dumb but can't find a link. It should be under help maybe.....can you send a screenshot or some way I may find how to do this simplest of simplest tasks.
      Thanks,
      Marty
