Who's Using Fresh Store Builder?

[davedevelopment]

Has anyone noticed that the stats on the site are not reflective of the stats on Amazon.. ?

Apparently a 'checkout' doesn't count as a click until they hit the hit button.

 

[chippyb]

if they reach amazon i think it counts as a click, but it still doesnt mean when they get to amazon they will still buy the product, you will prob only get 50% of checkouts as sales.

I the other day had 24 checkouts in one day but only 8 sales, but there they day before had 16 checkouts and 15 sales, I would just ignore the clicks as it always seems to be double the amount of checkouts from the site

Could it be bots doing that?

Inspired by this thread I took up the $97 offer.

How does the node stuff work? I'm putting together a site about telephoto camera lenses so would want things like the products from http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=sr_ab...|182679031&bbn=1104528&ie=UTF8&qid=1322861682 to be returned.

Can I do that using the node bit or do I need to supply some other info?!

You can get it to auto populate using the node or keyword / keyphrase, e.g. "canon camera lenses".

Cheers for the reply WW, but what are the nodes? Is it contained with the URL string I posted or is there some other way for me to optain it for the search query I had ran?

Unless I'm doing something wrong, the only way I have been able to find the nodes is by looking in the url (seating would be 403682011). Probably is a better way of doing it though.

You can add products individually by using the ASIN key.

thought I'd give this a go (like to try all these things), and have put up sdxccards.co.uk

And the first sale came yesterday.

Do the product descriptions get lifted straight from amazon or can you re-write them?

Ben, they are lifted from amazon, but as I mentioned in an earlier post:

Just to let you know, FSB integrates the best spinner API.
This means that if/when you purchase "the best spinner" all you need to do is insert your details into the FSB admin panel and all the title and product descriptions get spun automatically, creating "unique" product pages.

Obviously you can then invest in re-written content for all products or just the most popular products, but at least your site will have a slight advantage over other stores integrating amazon product descriptions directly into the product page.

But yes, you can also rewrite them.

Anyone notice they get a MySQL error if you select the FILTER option from the pages without choosing any drop down options? You then get this error:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1(No Description) sql: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM products p, products_categories c WHERE p.id = c.product_id AND parent_id = 0 AND c.category_id = 34 AND hidden = 0 AND enabled = 1 AND (offers > 0 OR parent = 1) AND

I've got a support ticket open with FSB at the moment. I guess this is a bug.

Is the best spinner worth the price then any descent wordpress pluggins to use this with

After a quick search, it seems there are no available TBS plugins available for wordpress, although I did find a thread via Google search that suggested WP Robot has integrated it's API.

For me, TBS has been worthwhile just for the various FSB sites I now have that are creating "unique" content from amazon descriptions. I will get round to writing quality content for the better selling items at some point, but for the time being, ranking is doing well enough to get me enough sales to justify the purchase of both FSB and TBS.

PS: When you buy FSB you get a (50%?) discount on TBS.

Got confirmation - this is a bug. Hopefully they'll fix soon.

(carey is a member here & designed the software), the deal is still valid.

Not sure where to find the discount you mentioned but here you can get TBS for $47 instead of $77.

I've just converted one of my existing sites into FSB, using another edited template I've made up.

Be interesting to see how it compares to the previous site performance, etc, fingers crossed!
