Selling Amazon.com’s Automotive Products
I’ve recently added a new section to my site with Automotive Parts, but I think that Automotive is turning out to be one of the more difficult products to sell. E-commerce is never easy, but finding the right formula to sell auto parts is getting to be difficult. A critique would be greatly appreciated.

I think that a junk-yard could sell parts online easier they what I’ve got going on, and that’s just weak. I’ve got everything categorized, into different sections, like oils and fluids, or windshield wipers, which everyone needs.
At the very least I do have Google Adsense running on the pages, so typically if people don’t find what they |
are looking for, they might even click through to a competitor’s ad. Gotta love Adsense. In any case, I’m going to keep on working on it. Maybe I can re-arrange the look, or limit the categories. What gets me though is that there are even brand name parts that most car mechanics would know and trust. I guess most of them still buy from places like Napa and Discount Auto. That’ll soon change as more mechanics start to place orders online, and next day delivery gets less expensive.

Hello there!
Glad you like my picture. I’m glad you are linking it to my flickr account, but perhaps next time you could let me know / put a citation or something under it? Other than that I am rather flattered.
