Next time when you are at it, write about link building more. You started and gave good information. I know, you have a lot to say about it. There's too much fog going on about link building.

I really like this post by Andy, its so true, the gurus are making great cash selling info products but they also have to market their own products and if they hadnt picked the foundations up (in ecommerce) it wouldnt be successful. Also I find there are so many guys who sell money making products that can't even turn a buck themselves. Hi Guys,

As far as I can see there are two tiers and three sitemaps that are only linked from the front page. Looks cool and some nice sculpting using nofollow (supposedly not recommended anymore because google doesn't recognized no follow-has this affected you at all?). Thanks Hi Andy,

My father and I built this store from nothing in our spare upstairs bedroom into a multimillion dollar a year operation with a 25,000 sq foot building and over 25 full time employees, and like you said Andy, eventually it turns into a complicated pain in the ass. Watching all these great info marketers makes me jealous. Trying to find my way into this business now. Still operating the e-commerce store for now though and I just keep automating it a little more each day. You are absolutely correct though, if you need to learn to market and use PPC and learn about conversions etc, an ecommerce store is a great way to get started and get paid to learn it.

I'm starting my first e-commerce store and look to a2armory.com and myweddingfavors.com as guideposts. I'm finding that the competition in e-commerce, for very specific products is so low, that it's no-brainer. In most cases, I'm competing with the product pages of big companies like Target, Walmart, etc. that have no backlinks to the product page (for the product I'm looking to sell). I'm finding that there are many highly trafficed/searched niches like this where I can use a little SEO knowledge to build a profitable business. Tell it…
