    That 'success feeling' when and why did you get it last?

    Haha, that's awesome! Congrats on that first sale. :rockon: I actually had a fist pump moment today! I got back from work and checked my Amazon sales & rankings and saw that one product was back ranking #1 for a keyword. (The product was out of stock for almost two months, and I wasn't sure if...

    I currently use A Small Orange. I switched over from GoDaddy a few months ago, and absolutely love them so far. Customer support is solid, and they support Wordpress.

    Amazon Sellers: how important is your copywriting in amz listings?

    MARKETING 
    I agree with Vigilante & Mattie on this one as well. I think copywriting is important, because you don't know what a customer is going to rely on before making a purchasing decision. When I'm buying on Amazon, I actually tend to scroll down and just glance at the description to make sure it's...

    How does a teenager make money?

    Hey! Welcome to the forum. :) There are still so many opportunities to make money at your age. A few things that I did: - Freelanced with SEO - Made iPhone apps (I ended up making over $5 thousand dollars) - I am a guitarist. So I went downtown and just busked on the streets.

    Examples of adding value in a business

    Just the other day I was actually thinking about this. I went to grab Thai food with a friend. My friend asked for an extra side of peanut sauce, and was later billed an extra $0.50. It doesn't seem like much, but he was pissed that the waiter never mentioned that he would be charged an extra...

    [AMA] SEO and Digital Marketing in 2016

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Fair question. I'll try to answer these as best as possible: - As I mentioned in the original post, I have been studying SEO for over 10 years now. - I have worked for 2 different digital marketing agencies over the past 4 years. The years in-between I worked free lance jobs from time to time...

    Building A New Product Brand From Scratch

    EXECUTION 
    Now for an update (and a little rant... ;))! After being out of stock for nearly 2 months, most of my inventory has been received by Amazon. I was a bit worried that rankings would drop significantly (since the products were out of stock for so long), but it wasn't too bad. While rankings were...

    [AMA] SEO and Digital Marketing in 2016

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Exactly! Just as it should be. :) It ultimately depends on the type of website. An e-commerce website is going to go about building backlinks differently than a wedding planner. So I change my strategy to fit with the particular business. But in general, here are some techniques that have...

    [AMA] SEO and Digital Marketing in 2016

    HOT! MARKETING 
    To be completely blunt & honest, none of the mentioned strategies are currently effective for SEO. Some can be beneficial in their own ways, but if we are talking about ranking your website on a search engine, then these are not the strategies you want to use. Social Bookmarking - Using...

    Good to hear from you again HyperFocus! Social Media is extremely important when building a product brand.

    That's awesome! I think you'll really enjoy the job as well. It can be tough at times, but I enjoy the challenge. :) Certifications are great. Personally, I've only gone through the Google Analytics Certification process. They do give you a bit credibility, but they wouldn't necessarily...
