[Method] Make $1000 a Month With Amazon - Newbie Friendly [Phase 5a Published!]

[SOCOM]

and yet not a single post has mentioned about this very important problem.

--> Amazon only pays every 2 weeks.

if you have 0 capital then youre pretty much fucked.

Nobody makes any money on this forum and you should leave because it's a waste of time and you obviously have it all figured out.

To other noobs reading this, having a negative attitude like this bozo will get you nowhere in life. Making excuses when you'll be paid instead of just getting to work. If IM has you complaining, go find a real job, where they pay you every two weeks....

Faithjhung, I don't agree with you, especially if you are answering this to a newbie, it's like saying how to make a sandwich - you just need bread and butter. But how about cheese, bacon and other stuff? The same is here, you also need articles 3-5k words and it's obvious that you won't write this by yourself. Also you'll need experience to build a website, so maybe you'll need a paid consultation or help. If you want to be a ghost in this method, okay 20$ is enough, but if you want to start making money from it, the input will be much bigger. Just saying that guys should prepare more $ to invest, because otherwise they will lose motivation after some time without results Peace

It says in the OP that you need about $100. Also, you can write the content yourself if you don't have money. If you can't speak English, I don't know what to tell you, you need to come up with extra money to pay for the article. That's on you.

the forums in my niche are pretty much dead so what can i do? why you said make traffic generation from Reddit, Facebook and other social media later after Forums? why i can't just start using them to drive traffic from the beginning? please clarify.

I have already built my blog + added great content on it + setup all required pages + amazon affiliate program attached to payoneer US payment service but i stuck at the traffic part, what should i do now?

Most people nowadays use Reddit, Facebook, social media + Q&A sites to make discussions.

Please can someone answer my question??

Go answer on those sites then. It's a similar strategy I just haven't written it up then. You're doing something wrong if you can't find some forums, though.

Wait for 5b , or if you're in a hurry, then use Google to see various traffic methods including FB, etc.

Please can someone answer my question??

Just thought I'd help anyone trying to scale using link localization. Their are services both paid and free (i suggest paid) that will automatically convert US amazon associate links into any Amazon (US, UK, CA) etc.. associate links.

This will boost your income. Especially if mixed with translation..

Can you recommend me a plugin?

 

[jihadist]

so i must prepare $100 for this method ?

It helps, you need to at least be able to pay for hosting and a domain. Ideally a little extra for content too.

Hey, Meathead, please give me some info about where we can buy content. Fiverr? BHW? Where? Thanks.

I've done everything up to phase 5a.

I threw up a site built on a clean and fast theme
I made a 2k pillar article and 4x 900-1300 word "review" articles
I made the pillar the home page and linked out to each article multiple times, no amazon links on the pillar
Each "review" has a ton of amazon links- maybe 10-16 each going to amazon, and also link to each other
I have a bio exactly like meathead's layout, along with a complete paragraph and picture (I just used some random stock image)
Also have About, Disclaimer, Privacy, Terms of Use, and Contact

Site has a persona of being an expert in the field and working with the niche daily, and sounds like a mix of personal opinion/salesman.
Product is $30-$500, but I only have moderately priced ones so far.

I've made 2 accounts so far, and I know I need more. I'll make more today. Made an Excel sheet tracking everything as suggested by OP.

Made 1 post in each account on 2 forums. Gonna try to post around 10 posts each today. Will drop links when 10 posts reached, or whenever it's allowed according to the FAQ. But honestly, I'm too lazy to read it.

Anxious to see how this turns out. Here goes nothing.

Awesome! Great job. You should hopefully see a sale or two in your first week assuming you do the forum work properly upfront. I don't bother reading forum FAQs either - most will automatically stop you posting links etc. anyway if you can't. If you sign up for enough forums, don't spam links on your first post and properly fill out your profile you should be okay.

Please delete the post

 

[jeffro89]

so as well as having the 10 forum accounts, 5 of the persona and 5 random ones. Do you guys suggest making 3 different accounts on each to try and drum up some interest, especially if getting interests is difficult ? Findng it difficult to convert the clicks from the forums into sales. 2 weeks in over 200 clicks not a single sale

 

[UptonGoodwin]

I haven't seen a lot of traffic to my site yet, still trying to post on forums a few times a week at least. Managed to do a blackhat trick but it hasn't actually gotten any traffic. Have my website listed as the website of a local related business, but nobody clicks the website link , gets lots of search results to the point of flooding my webmaster tools with the search results for the local business.

Really looking forward to the next parts though

Hey guys, i'm also using Thrive Themes for my aff site. But I'm not using just Amazon products but also cpa products. I'm getting like $15 per sale for the cpa products. I think it's good to diversify your sources: not just Amazon but also products from other Aff Networks because generally speaking you'll get more commission and you never know if the conv rate will be higher if you find a gem. It's all about TESTING mates ! I'm already top 3 on Google for 1600 to 2900searches/month terms but I need to tweak my copy now. Just my 2 cents if it can benefit someone.

 

[tes1234]

Which theme are you using from Thrive. I was thinking of opting for it because of their landing pages.

Guys i forwarded this guide to someone and they are working on it. But they can get into amazon because as they have declined / closed the account because they used their social account.

Any idea on how to get approved as he is still working on the website creation.

Hey everyone, I am so pleased to say that this method is legit, and thanks to meathead for the detailed guide. I'm really excited for the future for my site. So my site is just 1 month old and I have already made 5 sales. My commission so far for those sales is only like $4 but still, Im stoked. So far alls I have spent $16 on hosting, my hosting is $8 a month, and time writing about 10,000 words in content.

I have a question regarding the amazon affiliate program that maybe someone could answer for me. So I signed up for another affiliate program in my niche on Share a Sale, because they offer 10% commission on sales and 30 day cookie, which is nice. They sell some things that amazon doesn't but for the most part most of the stuff on there site you can get on amazon. Is it against Amazons terms to promote a program like this at the same time as promoting theirs, because they are sort of competitors?

I just want to make sure Amazon won't deny me for some little stupid technicality like this before I start adding some of the share a sale links to my site.

If you are really worried about startup hosting costs, you can get some of the most reliable/consistent hosting for free!

http://aws.amazon.com/free/

Amazon Web Services has an awesome free tier. You can create an AWS account and you'll be able to host a site for free for a year. Or if you have lots of credit cards you can host lots of sites for free for a year (multiple AWS accounts). AWS EC2 is considered one of the highest performing services out there, and a micro instance (1 GB of memory) is plenty of power for most sites.

Depending on your site, you can also easily host a site on Amazon's S3 static storage. I'm actually considering putting out a tutorial on how to conveniently create a site that almost costs nothing to host using S3. S3 performs very well, especially when combined with Amazon's CDN. The catch is figuring out how to manage your site if it balloons to a few hundred pages +.

The only strings attached are that you wouldn't be able to run server side code with Amazon S3, but you can easily push simple server side processes like forms to an external server or service like FormSpree.

If you're making an Amazon Affiliate site, the only server side processes you may actually need would be forms and maybe stuff to serve affiliate links based on country. Actually you can just use Amazon's DNS routing service (Route 53) to route based on country, it is probably more accurate than EasyAzon anyway.

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/routing-policy.html#routing-policy-geo

Do you think a method detailing how to host a site statically for very cheap/free would be helpful? It would probably be slightly more technical than wordpress, I'm guessing.

Tracking these accounts is difficult... Finding it hard to 'word' click my website!! Any tips?

I'm wasn't into Amazon before but I would definitely like to try now.
