I'm glad you like it! Now I have to find a way to attract users and see if they like it too :)

I wouldn't necessarily target specific markets. Things I've purchased in the last year that I would have used this for:

1. Herbal teas

2. A camcorder

3. A digital camera

4. A laptop

5. Console games

6. A new phone (which I still haven't bought, because I can't find one I'm comfortable with)

Most of those are electronics, but I'm sure that if I thought about it longer I could come up with a bunch more.

It's not targeted. Users can add any product as long as amazon sells it

My question is - if they are buying a product from amazon - why don't they check product reviews posted right on amazon? Why do they need a different site? I do agree that opinions from friends and family counts a lot but the concept has many unknowns.

1. You need to communicate (with friends and family) what product you want buy from amazon 2. Then your friends and family need to have purchased the same product 3. Now, when you are looking for a product, you need to drive them to make a recommendation.

I think you should quickly test the concept and obtain some real feedback before scaling it up.

I think that you get the whole thing wrong. GuysHelpMeDecide is a tool where you enter a question for example:

* What iphone should I buy?

And lets you enter 2 or 3 choices:

* iPhone 4S 16GB white * iPhone 4S 16GB black

The key here is that the search for this products is light fast and easy. It grabs from amazon.com the title of the product, image, description and even the price, but let's you modify it (if you don't want the price to be public or you want to customize the description with your opinion on that product).

Once created the poll it appears on your facebook friends wall, if they click on the story they'll see the page with the question, the choices and they'll be able to vote and to comment.

See a quick iPhone color example here:

None of your friends needs necessarily to own an iPhone for providing a valid opinion.

I have endless conversation with my geek friends about the new LCD HD whatever 3D tv and none of us have ever tried it.

Hope it gets clearer now

I am sorry, I was out of town. My bad, I now see what you were suggesting. I am much clear about the concept. I also looked at your source code and I am assuming that amazon is paying you CPA right?

May be you should apply for shopping.com partners program and negotiate CPC payment based on their rate card. That way, you immediately start making CPC money when you drive traffic and you are not just bound to amazon. Though, amazon is good starting point as Shopping.com will ask to see your website (as a small demo). They are little slow but you can also try shopzilla affiliate program (CPC only).

Once you get good traction and traffic starts building, you will start getting offers straight from various merchants.

Hope things work out well!

Good luck :)

Yes, I am using amazon affiliates, which pays me a 4% on all the purchases we refer.

Thx for the info on other shopping affiliate platforms (I didn't know them), but right now my focus is on trying to get traction and traffic to the site. After that we'll see the best way to monetize it
