I think “bed guard” is now number 1 in google rankings although this month traffic has dropped by 30% …maybe it is the time of year only 297 visitors over September compared to the highest in July at 636 visits, 592 unique.

Movies: Yes I have used joomla 1.5 to build my sites. You are correct I would not be able to optimise the individual links within the iframe. However I have tried to optimise round certain products, try “babydan bed guard” and “tomy bed guard” as search terms in google.

Conversion on sales compared to product clicks is about 20%, I earn an average of around £50 – £60 per month off Amazon through bedguard and around £10 with adsense. It is annoying that at the start of a new month my referral rate returns to 5%.

I am currently trying more sites such as http://www.kettlesandtoasters.com, http://www.pctoolkit.co.uk and working with a friend of mine who bought the domain denimleggings.co.uk.

Hi Rich, i have visited your Bed Guard site. It is based on Joomla. This solution is interesting but iframe causes search engines will never index your category and item links.

Am i wrong?

Btw, what is your conversion rate? Thanks.

@Rich,

Whilst I agree that you have integrated the aStore nicely within a frame and given it some natural and optimised content, I don’t think that you could achieve the same result for your keywords on a different domain.

If the keyword works for you, then I agree that having the domain name is a great bonus, if not essential.

You sparked me to look at some of my domains to see the SEO effect of keyword rich domain names and concluded that it is extraordinarily important to get a keyword rich domain name.

Have a look at the article.

Optimise the site you are going to put the astore in. Do the best to concentrate on that. Check out http://www.bedguard.co.uk I must get at least one sale a day.

I’m number one in Yahoo under “bed guard” and “bed guards” on google at about 7th or 8th on the first page.

Hey dont worry about optimising the store itself, optimise what you already have, I bought the domain bedguard.co.uk because of the amount of traffic the keyword \bed guard\ recieves. I was lucky to get the domain. I’ve seo’d the site to the best of my ability and added my astore after in an iframe. http://www.bedguard.co.uk

Take a look, its number one on yahoo under \bed guard\ and \bed guards\.

Its position 7 or 8 on google under bed guard i think.

Love Amazon associates!
