Affiliate Storefronts

Q: Is a storefront a successful way to promote products as an affiliate?

A: It can be successful, but I would consider it to be an introductory way into affiliate marketing.

With affiliate storefronts, you are using a widget or script to generate it, so i don’t think it should be a long-term plan for you.

I’d look at it as a way to break into the business and learn some things.

If you plan to work in affiliate marketing for years and want something scalable, I don’t think you should rely on storefronts powered by somebody else.

Also, it depends on your technical prowess. I still use storefronts myself for various projects to test things or as fillers.

    Are you getting any results for your Build A Niche Stores? I have been looking into BANS sites.

    Why aren’t storefronts successful? Why are the considered elementary?

    I’m surprised you suggest this with your Build a Niche Store…?

    They can be successful, but I don’t see them as being as scalable and flexible as building your own site with product data feeds.
