Amazon Search Bar Review

Do you want to make money with Amazon?

Are you an Amazon affiliate, or thinking of signing up with them, and want to make more sales?

Then you have to see this:

Amazon Search Bar

I just bought a copy of this for myself and I love it.

It’s a simple WordPress plugin that adds an Amazon search bar to the top or bottom of your site.

You can see it in operation on this site – the yellow bar at the top of the page here. Try it for yourself!

The best thing about it is that if a customer clicks the ‘Add to cart’ button that pops down after you search, they are cookied with your link for 90 days instead of the 24 hours that applies to a regular click through to Amazon.

It detects which country the visitor comes from by their IP and shows their local Amazon site as the default.

By signing up with all of Amazon’s affiliate programs and offering those options with this search bar you can earn commissions from people living in every country where Amazon has a site.

Note: When you install this, don’t forget you need an Amazon Associate disclosure for each Amazon site that you’re promoting (.com, .ca, .co.uk, etc) visible on every page where an Amazon ad is showing. For applications like this that use the Amazon API you need to add something more. You can see mine at the bottom of the left sidebar but I suggest you go into your own Amazon Associate and Amazon Web Services accounts and check the wording for yourself.

I’m only registered with Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk right now, so those are the only options that you’ll see on the bar on this site. But if you go to the page here you can see all of the different options:

Amazon Search Bar

Check out the reviews from other customers on that page too. People are going crazy over it!

So if your visitors aren’t buying enough of the products you’re promoting, here’s a way to have them buy what they really want – in their own country – and pay you commissions!

I’ve always wanted a simple plugin that would do that, and now it’s here.

This is a must-have for any current or future Amazon affiliate. Start monetizing your sites with the Amazon Search Bar today!

Recently I had a question from a subscriber about how to rewrite PLR easily. He said: “Rosie, what is the best way to use your PLR and to re-write it? I know it’s a must to get unique content these days.” Here’s my answer:

I often rewrite PLR and I find it’s very easy if I have a good article to begin with. As well as rewriting my own PLR articles, I do buy and use other people’s PLR too. It saves me a lot of time over writing from scratch.

If you don’t want to rewrite PLR articles completely, this is what I would do:

1. Change the title, either keeping the keyword or changing to another keyword that you have researched.

2. If you have changed the keyword, obviously you need to change it throughout the article.

3. Rewrite the first and last sentences, keeping your keyword in both of them.

4. Change some elements of the structure: splitting a long sentence in two, or joining two short sentences; changing the order of sentences or paragraphs; changing where paragraphs end.

5. Change at least one word in each sentence and/or add or delete words.

It’s hard to second-guess Google but having done that I think you would have made it unique in the eyes of the search engines.

If you want to submit to ezinearticles.com you do need to rewrite completely and preferably add some new information because they don’t like any use of PLR and they use human eyes to check that articles are different in substance (not just the same thing in different words). But for other purposes I think the points above would be enough and it’s not much work.

When DON’T you need to rewrite PLR?

The only time I would use PLR articles without changing them at all is in an autoresponder message. If it’s going as an email it doesn’t need to be unique.

In this Rob Cornish review I’m going to take a long look at a new low cost video training series just released by Rob Cornish, whom I met at one of Martin Avis’s recent London lunch events. It’s called ‘Newbie to $350K’ and you can go straight to it by clicking on the graphic here.

First here’s a story about Rob Cornish and a bar receipt…

At the lunch we were just idly chatting (I thought) and Rob asked how I usually promote my PLR articles. I told him and he said ‘OK, but why don’t you try this?’ Then he mentioned a new-to-me promotion method that I vaguely knew about but didn’t think would work for me.

Within 5 minutes he convinced me that it was worth trying and he explained it so well that I was able to remember the whole process and follow it through several weeks later, even though my only reminder was a few bullet points that I had scribbled on the back of a bar receipt.

It is truly a gift to be able to explain things as clearly, simply and effectively as that – and in a way that motivates the person to take action, even when they’re reluctant to try something new, as I was. And it turned out to be very successful for me.

So I knew before I even reviewed Rob’s new system ‘Newbie to $350K’ that this would be good training and something that any internet marketer should easily be able to put into practice.

And now that I have watched all of the videos myself, I can also reveal a little bit about what’s inside…

Rob Cornish ‘Newbie to $350K’ Review

In brief: you get Rob’s blueprint for going from scratch to generating over $350k in just over 18 months, presented in 4 videos, and you find out how to replicate it step by step.

The video training is in 4 parts. The first video is a short introduction. The second video (83 mins) is the main ‘meat’ of the system: an in-depth seminar presentation covering how to build a list and easily create products (both free and money-making) to drive people into a sales funnel.

Don’t skip this if you are only interested in affiliate marketing – you still need to create the best possible free products to make people happy that they joined your list and have them trust your product recommendations.

The next two videos are both labeled ‘Marketing and Traffic’ but in fact, video 3 sets out the marketing funnel formula step by step (12 mins) while video 4 (28 mins) focuses on how to get traffic through what Rob calls the ‘traffic escalator’. This is an excellent method of getting traffic completely free, without relying on the vagaries of Google, by tapping into the traffic of other sites in your niche and leveraging the expertise of their owners.

To summarize, you get a streamlined, effective method of making serious money from niche marketing explained very clearly through 3 main videos, plus an introduction.

There is also a PDF which is a 10-page summary of the steps of the process. You’ll want to watch the videos first and then use the PDF to keep the steps of the process clear in your mind.

And there’s an unannounced bonus which I probably shouldn’t tell you about, but I will because it gives you the system that Rob explained to me over lunch, except that here it’s set out in detail in a 60-minute video (so you don’t have to rely on notes on a bar receipt!)

My only criticism would be that Rob could maybe have focused more on how affiliate marketers can make the most of the system. It’s presented from the point of view of somebody who is marketing his own products but in fact, if you are an affiliate marketer, you can still get all of the benefits of Rob’s formula with just two easy-to-create entry level products. I can’t say more here without giving away his process but if you sign up through my link and then want me to explain what I meant, just leave a comment and I’ll email that to you.

Do check this out – it’s excellent training in a profitable system at an unbelievable price.

Rob Cornish Review: Newbie To 350K

When I checked my email this morning I found one of those ‘Payment Received’ emails from PayPal, with no product name. So I opened it up to see what the person had bought, and found that it was a payment for just 10 cents.

For a moment I thought somebody had hacked into my sales system and changed the pricing on one of my products to get it cheap…grrr..but that wasn’t it.

No, there was a note in the PayPal comment box promoting a product launch. I think they were trying to get JV partners.

Now, what you’re meant to think here is that these people are just paying you 10 cents to get your attention. But in fact, there is something a little more manipulative going on.

Gifts like this – in fact, any promotional gifts – exploit the psychological expectation of reciprocity that almost all human beings have.

What does that mean in simple language? It means that if somebody gives you something, you have a deep – almost instinctive – feeling that you should give them something back. And if you don’t reciprocate because you don’t have anything to give them, you feel that YOU OWE THEM.

Like any kind of debt, this is an uncomfortable feeling. In most cases, you will try to get rid of it by repaying them in some way, either with a gift or by doing something that you think they will like.

This is why we feel so bad when somebody unexpectedly gives us a gift at Christmas and we don’t have anything for them.

Marketers play on this to get us to buy stuff. You receive a gift (whether it’s a free pen in the mail from Cancer Research or a free ebook you download from somebody’s site) – you feel you owe them – so you are more likely to buy whatever they are selling.

And this applies whether or not you liked or wanted the gift. You might even HATE the gift. It doesn’t matter. Most people will still feel bad if they cannot give something back.

I’m saying ‘you’ for the recipient here, but of course YOU are the marketer as well. You are probably already benefiting from this human response by giving something away for free on many of your sites. But with the free download, we are just offering a gift that people can take if they want. We are not giving them something whether they want it or not, like my 10 cent emailer did.

Have you ever thought about doing something like that? You could. You only have to click on marketers’ Buy Now buttons to see their PayPal emails, then send money. These guys either did it with Mass Pay or as a gift in PayPal, because I wasn’t charged a fee.

Would you think it’s worth trying for some product launches? Of course, you would need to check PayPal’s terms. But if they are OK with it, would you do it? Or is it too sneaky…or too risky financially?

Vote now (you can pick up to three options):

P.S. You may be wondering if I clicked on the link in that email and joined their launch. The answer is no, but I did have that nasty indebted feeling…

…so I refunded the payment, and sent them a link to MY site in the comment box

What does Google Panda mean for someone like you, who uses
PLR articles? And for someone like me who writes them?

Like most marketers, I try to stay up to date on developments in SEO, especially when they relate to Google.

One piece of information that has come out of the Panda update from earlier this year is that it is now very important to have a low ‘bounce rate’.

In other words, the Google bots know how long visitors stay on your site (because they track them) – and it matters. It seems clear that if you can keep your visitors entertained for longer, you will be rewarded with higher search engine rankings – at least in Google.

Gone are the days when all we wanted was for a visitor to click on an Adsense ad and disappear as fast as possible! Now, we actually want them to READ our content first.

So what does all of this mean for you as a user of PLR articles?

It means that you should be looking for PLR articles that are LONGER and BETTER QUALITY than the average PLR, right? Because that is what is going to keep your visitors on your site.

And so I am making sure that I provide exactly that: PLR articles that are longer and better quality than many others.

Most of my articles are over 500 words. Some are considerably longer.

What is more, you can easily make them even longer and make them unique at the same time, by adding a few more words into each sentence.

Check out all my current packs at Flamillion PLR.
