The question of quantity or quality is not limited to the question of the frequency of posting . It can be applied to practically any field. Amazon productsPhoto rights by Fotolia To start with a short answer. The ideal is to choose a single product with which you will “hit the jackpot”. This last term is very relative because for some this can start with earning 1,000 euros a month and for others it is necessary to add 1-2 more zeros to meet their definition of “hitting the jackpot”. Let’s do a quick calculation to get things going. To earn 1,000 euros, how much do you have to sell each month? Let’s say you have a product that gives you a margin of 5 euros on each sale. This is a more or less realistic figure when you’re starting out. To take less risk, you need a product that doesn’t require a large investment. These typically cost less but obviously also bring you less profit. To earn 1,000 euros a month you need to make an average of almost 7 sales a day. That’s a relatively high figure when you’re starting out. I’m not saying it’s impossible, but you’ll probably need to calculate more time to achieve it. I haven’t been with Amazon long enough yet to be able to tell you exactly how much. My ideal number of products sold on Amazon It is important to note that this post, like the rest of the entries you find on this blog, is not intended to sell truths. It is about presenting opinions or experiences, and this is my own. It’s not too complicated to import products from China through Alibaba or others . So once you’ve got the hang of the first one, you’ll know how to do it for the second, third and fourth if necessary. It should also be noted that Amazon Spain is still a marketplace in development . It has nothing to do with France, the United Kingdom or Germany, not to mention the United States. With the exception of star products, not every product achieves high sales volumes. Today (based on our first experiments) it is not very difficult to generate 1-2 sales per day. Therefore, and applying the “magic” figure of 1,000 euros of monthly income,One of the most read posts on my blog is about copying third party content correctly. It is a topic that generates the most concern and outrage among bloggers who are experiencing it for the first time. Typically, every time I publish a new post on this blog, 5 or more copies appear automatically on third party blogs through the RSS feed . copy postPhoto rights by Fotolia Since I installed a new plugin, it has stopped working and with it, copies are no longer automatically generated. This is also the answer to the question many of you have asked about why you no longer receive my content through this channel. It is a conflict between the feed and this plugin that I will have to fix at some point. In most cases, having your post copied is not a problem. Rule number 1. Take a deep breath and don’t panic . Most bloggers don’t have to worry too much as long as they’ve made sure to get their posts indexed by Google immediately. Through Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools) you can quickly submit a URL to Google. Here is a tutorial in Spanish for those who are not comfortable in English. This way you increase the probability of actually being the first to index the post (and not the one who copies it from you). In most cases posts are not copied with the intention of “stealing” them . For me this would be the case whenever someone tries to index it first and/or wants to give the impression of being the original author of the post. As long as you are the first to appear on Google when someone searches for the article in the post, you do not have an SEO problem. Rather, the person who steals the article from you has one because Google will consider it as duplicate content, which is a penalized technique . What do I do when I realize that my content has been copied? Even if you are not cited as a source, you should not get too angry. I can tell you from experience that it is not worth it. I can understand the anger if it is done by a well-known media outlet or blogger. In this case, I would probably have to revise the second to last sentence. You have different options to react if you cannot avoid it: Phase 1 : Write an email and ask the blogger or medium to cite you correctly or directly delete the post. Phase 2 : If you don’t get any feedback or reaction after the first contact, you can pass the case on to a lawyer. This doesn’t guarantee an immediate solution, but it can sometimes be intimidating enough. Every month I usually receive a message from a reader that blogger x has copied one of my posts. I usually say thank you but I don’t take any action.
