Default Anyone tried an Amazon Store?

Hi

Has anyone tried or running an Amazon store?

Why did you give up and if you are running one are you doing well?

I tried before, the rates killed us so we moved over to selling through our own web store and eBay.

I have a few mostly on low traffic sites so little action, but they don't cost anything and are quick to setup so no harm ... just don't expect to make a fortune.

To get a decent earning from amazon affiliate you have to target really small product niche that priced above $ 300. Then attract targeted visitor to that store.

Before I have an online store from amazon, but now I switch to shoppingads, it gives me more commissions than amazon because it is affiliated with ebay and prices are much lower.

I actually had a little success with an Amazon store when they first launched it. I owned a comic book domain and I was being lazy if I'm honest.

I couldn't be bothered to look for an affiliate.

To my surprise it done better than I expected. I never made a massive amount of cash from it.

I guess it can be good for some things but not for others.
