Amazon Christmas orders

**davesplace1** · 12-06-2004, 09:49 AM

I'm starting to see a sharp upturn in Amazon.com orders, must be Christmas time

. How is everybodys Christmas shaping up? It's still early but so far so good for my sites with Amazon ads.

I'll tell you after I'm done shipping the 50 or so orders that need to go out today

Wow glad to see you guys are doing well (Though with Chris, it's predictable

)

I currently am in need of some traffic to my solitary AWS site, Buy Video Games. But I'm sure if I just post enough with it in my signature at a few gaming forums which I'll start frequenting again, I should be able to turn up a few orders. And if I make enough money for a domain name, I may start up another AWS site, or two, or three, or a beastly large amount like you have, Chris.

you can definitely tell its christmas. My conversion rate was reading 1025% for a few days as people popped in to buy 10 or 20 things through one click through.

Wow. From what you can tell, is it looking better than last year? Sounds like it's gonna be amazing.

I don't know. Last year I did 120k in sales in december. Right now I'm looking to hit more like $90k in sales. But I don't think it has peaked quite yet, so you never know.

lol.. crikeys that is insane. I would love to even come close to touching that number. But im just using amazon associates, so i will live and dream.

**James** · 12-06-2004, 05:27 PM

I wish I could come close to getting a check, at this rate..

**moonshield** · 12-06-2004, 06:32 PM

120k... gross right? What does that net? Just curious.

**s2kinteg916** · 12-06-2004, 06:54 PM

it nets millions.....

**Chris** · 12-06-2004, 07:43 PM

I'm not sure what the net is exactly, but its probably around 25%

I had a pretty good day today, 7.3k in sales. So I might beat last year after all.

My current goal is to get up to the next tier before the boxing day sales slow things down and I go back down to regular sales with amazon.

**SWD** · 12-07-2004, 09:07 AM

chris, how much you get out of 120K in sales? from amazon?

**incka** · 12-07-2004, 09:39 AM

I'm pretty sure if earlier on in the year if you had have spent your time developing other content sites rather than AWS you would have made more, and so would I for that matter. AWS may have made me some money but content sites have made me far more. I'm going to continue to do affiliate shopping sites, but on a system like Chris has developed where he can make a new site in about fifteen minutes.
