As more affiliates sign up for the Amazon associates program, it is going to
get more and more difficult to make money from the program. Those affiliates
that do effective and innovative marketing by constantly following the latest
trends in online marketing are the ones that are most likely to survive and
profit inspite of this competition.
One of the effective marketing techniques is to bring traffic to specific
products on your affiliate website by participating in pay-per-click (PPC)
product listing services that drive traffic to your website. Yahoo! Search
Marketing, Nextag, Price Grabber, Shopzilla and others provide product listing
services for vendors.
AAWS2PF is an application that uses Amazon Web Services and for the search
criteria of your choice, it uses the ItemSearch operation and fetches all the
pages and using a flexible configuration, allows you to convert the XML into
a flat list (csv or tab delimited) of product feeds. You can fetch all the results
for a given keyword, browse node or any other search filters supported by the
Amazon Associate Web Services.
If you are wondering what else you can do with the product feeds, here are a
few ideas
- Download the data into a spreadsheet and do multi-dimensional analysis that
can help you create strategies for your advertising and niche content building.
- Download ASIN numbers based on more sophisticated queries provided by the
Amazon Associate Web Services interface and then build a very specialized astore.
You can rearrange your astore items and get rid of obsolete items without much
effort.
- You can also import the data into a database and build "a custom store" instead
of an "astore".
- You can create even a simple static html pages for specific themes and ideas.
For example, check our Kindle Store built using the product feed
generated by AAWS2PF.
