Here are a few worthy stats to take note of and who and what category you should be promoting:
Amazon dominates the holiday season (Amazon now accounts for 43% of ALL online US sales - let that really sink in.. nearly HALF of all ecommerce purchases go through Amazon now)

Wirecutter just sent this out - completely redesigns the site with new structure, layout, coding, etc.
Every review page is now just one long, narrow single column... a lot of scrolling involved now. Not sure if I like it...

Yes, obviously there were many factors working against Toys R Us but the massive debt load was the catalyst that sent it into BK. After paying interest on that massive $5B+ debt load they had little to invest and improve the business and reinvent itself. It was a terrible debt structure deal...
Note, it's not really the end. Toy's R Us aren't closing and will still be open as normal.
They received more than $3 billion in debtor-in-possession financing from J.P.Morgan Chase and other lenders, which will help it sustain operations during the bankruptcy process.
They are profitable but...

According to Spencer, Wired Investors did not 2x the income from Long Tail Pro (see his reply and comments about the sale in this post)
Spencer even called it "misleading" and Wired Investors were using it to lure in more investors for more deals. Even 1.5 yrs after the sale they...
I'd stick to the big networks like Facebook/Instagram, Adwords, Amazon, Bing, etc. There is more quality traffic and eyeballs on those platforms than you'll ever need.
Those options are 2nd tier for a reason and it's mainly garbage (7search recently shutdown).
If you are looking for...
Whenever I hear "is Adsense still worth it or can you really make $$ with it" type questions I like to point them to this.. I've watched Scott (Viral Nova) from the very beginning when he started with just a few basic MFA sites -- he has always used it for every major website. He has had...
Why even put all that effort and risk into ONE person? There are sooooo many evergreen possibilities out there right now.. instead why not build a real asset that generates cash flow AND will be worth something to someone else/another business down the line.
Often the real $$ is from the...
This reminds me of this NPR episode:
We Tracked Down A Fake-News Creator In The Suburbs. Here's What We Learned

If this is just a small dentist office it's not going to get a ton of traffic anyway so no need to be concerned with speed or loading issues with WP (unless you start piling on useless plugins). If this is like most DDS offices you only need a handful of pages: About Our Office, Meet the Team...
The problem is Walmart doesn't have their own Fulfillment By Amazon (FBA) style program. They are literally 10yrs behind Amazon's sophisticated logistics network.
Not having this option means a whole list of major disadvantages compared to Amazon... third-party sellers must ship their own...
I currently have my own product on Amazon FBA (importing from China) but the Aliexpress model does interest me. The biggest downside (and this is huge) is the shipment times and dealing with customer service.
Looking at the 2 shipping options and the average shipping times stated here-...
Here are some SEMrush stats on LuciesList.com
(she said she’s making enough to fully support her family of four — in San Francisco) ... she is ranking first page for some 15,000+ big time, high value keywords. Looks like there are about 338 total pages.
Stumbled across this article that mentioned The Wirecutter and a few other affiliate sites. I know a lot of people on here request to see a couple live examples... the Lucieslist.com a great one...
Oh, and of course narrow it down to a few manufacturers and order samples from each before you settle on one. You'll get a good idea of who to work with just with the communication experience (or lack of) during the ordering of the sample process.
I've used it and had a positive experience. Just sort by ticking the boxes: Gold Supplier, Assessed Supplier, etc.
Also, take note of the year established, transaction Levels, etc.
Just like making a purchase via eBay, Amazon, etc., it's about minimizing your buying risk using the appropriate...
