This would be interesting if it wasn't just live. Eg, if I could select a time period to show the most popular stuff from. Also a better way of discovering subs to browse, rather than having to know exactly what you're looking for. Perhaps an r/all equiv, but products ?

#32I'd be curious to see the success of this with Amazon Affiliates, since it is nearly a direct copy of a site I made 2 months ago (that Amazon shut down due to lack of original content). The site is https://fastandes.com (currently at limited functionality).
This is not nearly a direct copy of your product. This one features a well designed UX that immediately engages and encourages further exploration. Yours made me bounce in 2 seconds.

> that Amazon shut down due to lack of original content. Not clear from your wording so asking. Did you Amazon shut down your website, or did they close your affiliate account? What do you mean by 'lack of original content' ? Was the site an almost replica copy of the amazon page product details? or was it a copy of some other affiliate site? Thank you!
Edit: for example, http://hackernewsbooks.com/ is a site that has been successful with Affiliates. Amazon tends to be a bit moody with that program.

Not complaining, competition is good. Just giving warning and bringing up discussion.

Their wording is "lack of original content." Affiliates is geared towards bloggers who write posts (such as reviews) about linked products. Mine was nowhere close to that. Some sites skate by with alternatives, but I can see how I need to revise in order to comply with the program.
