Maximize Cyber Monday Results with These Tips and Tools!
Top Christmas Toys 2013 Keyword Packs
Stacy is at it again with her amazing keyword research packs and this time she's tackled the 100 hottest toys for Christmas 2013.

I've known Stacy for years and she's put together a special deal for my list offering her Top 10 Toys Typhoon package at 22% off if you buy through this link before 8am EST Thursday November 13th. 


Those of you who bought her previous packs know she goes above and beyond and doesn't just give you the keywords she's already researched but also provides suggested post titles, the top Pinterest boards you want to target for repinning, the top competing sites for each keyword, suggested tweets for each keyword, the link to the product on Amazon and suggested products to cross-promote. 

All you've got to do is pluck a keyword from the list, create the content and follow her instructions.

Cyber Monday Strategies for Top Results
If you want to maximize your Amazon sales results on Cyber Monday then you've got to plan ahead.  I don't care how few pages you've put online to promote Amazon there are things you can do to put up more content and things you can do to get more out of the content already posted online. 

Here are a two strategies (and with some creativity I bet you can come up with more):

Cyber Monday Deals Post + Pinterest
Put a Cyber Monday deals post on your site/sites.  You may not know the deals that will be advertised on Amazon just yet but you can get the post up and write about how you'll be tracking deals for the products featured on your site.

Then create an attractive, eye-catching text image that says something about "Top Cyber Monday Deals for (your product niche)", add that to your post, and pin that image and post to whatever Pinterest board you've got that's related to the niche.  Don't have a Pinterest board on the topic yet?  Build one and get busy getting it noticed and repinned. 


Facebook Pages and Getting the Click
Facebook Pages - getting people to click Amazon links in Facebook is all about sparking INTEREST and CURIOSITY.  It's not enough to say "Here's a great deal".  You've got to add something that will make it almost impossible not to click the link.  For example:
  • Wow - could this price be right?  It seems way too low!  I love Cyber Monday!
  • I sometimes wonder what people are thinking when they write product reviews on Amazon.  There are some bizarre reviews on this one.
  • I just found the ugliest white elephant present idea ever.  You've got to see the expanded view of this thing.
  • Can anyone find the right dimensions on this product page.  I'm not seeing them...
  • How many of you have teenagers hoping you'll get them this for Christmas this year?

Keep in mind that for Cyber Monday you want to get as many people to click on your affiliate links as possible because the odds that they're going to buy SOMETHING at Amazon that day are greatly increased.

Don't limit yourself to just linking to specific products you promote - link to something funny, link to something outrageously priced, link to a strange product you're sure people haven't seen before - anything to inspire them to click your affiliate link!

You don't want to irritate your fans but you should be able to get away with 3 posts on the subject on your Facebook pages - one the night before, one the morning of Cyber Monday (December 2nd) and one that afternoon.

$610 Amazon Commission from ONE Sale?
Hans (aka HPGoodboy) doesn't always create Amazon products but when he does he goes all out.  He's put together a research pack on premium, high-ticket watches with a minimum price of $1499 but these aren't just any watches - these are watches people have actually purchased on Amazon.

Then he topped it off with a sniper site strategy meant to get traffic and results as quickly as possible.  Even if you only sell one watch at $1499 at the lowest possible Amazon commission of 4% we're talking $59.96 in commission. 

Watch extremists will pay big money to get the next watch to add to their collection and that happens more often around the holiday season. 

Watch keywords are competitive for a reason - they sell and people make big money selling them.  With a full package of selected watches AND a strategy for tackling those kinds of keywords you could really amp up your holiday earnings.



Put that Bored Teenager to Work!
We might not have spare time these days but you know who might?  That teenager lounging on your sofa looking for something to do other than the XBox. 

Teaching them keyword research and all the stuff that goes into what we do is time consuming but you can get them started on something easy before the holidays.

Have them pick their favorite TV show, movie, or video game.  They can create a free Blogspot blog and write five or six posts about the show or movie.  Have them write about their favorite character, their favorite episode, what they like best about the show, when the next movie sequel is coming out, how much of a fan they are and why, gaming tips, their best scores, etc.

Have them find five products on Amazon that would be great gifts for fans of that show or movie.  Help them format a "Great Gifts for (movie/tv show/video game) Fans" post highlighting and linking to those five products. 

Have them build a Pinterest board with all kinds of links to fascinating pieces of information about the show or movie. 

Use a text image in the "Great Gifts" post and make sure to pin that to the top of the Pinterest board. See if they can get their friends and family to help get the link to the post shared and the link on Pinterest repinned.

Down and dirty simple.  They could even do a YouTube video to link to their post.
Two Review Sites Available for $97 Special Price
If it's been on your to-do list to get a review site started but you haven't found the time you can take advantage of a special offer. 

A year or two ago, I would refer everyone to Jason if they wanted a review site built and then, darn him, he had to take a break to finish college.  Well, he's free now and offering his review site service again!

To get the word out, he's offering two review sites at a special price of $97 each instead of the normal $197. 

Because it's a review copy you'd want to be able to write an honest review in his Warriors for Hire thread when you've had a chance to review the finished product.

Jason will build the site including WordPress setup, plug-ins, the banner, and post five premium, unique, QUALITY reviews for the site and then transfer it all to you.  You only need to provide the domain name and hosting.  Then grow the site from there!

To get one of the review copies contact Jason through his thread here:


FYI - YES I have used Jason personally and have made money from Amazon directly from his services.
