Niche Marketing – How To Understand Amazon Ratings So You Can Build a Profitable Niche Site

This factor in niche marketing especially on Amazon is probably the main factor that determines whether you’ll make a sale or not. As with any product or service, if it’s a bad review (even though this is subjective), it will affect the buyers decision making process.
On Amazon, it allows the customer to post reviews of products they have purchased and that alone can either further promote the product or completely destroy it.

It would seem obvious that as a niche marketer you would want to promote a product that has a very good rating but not just any rating will do. The rating must be very high, consistent and by many buyers.
The way Amazon rates products is by letting the user give a review and then for them to select a star rating. 1 star being the lowest and 5 being the highest. The number of reviews is also important to inspire confidence for other buyers.
10 reviews can be divided by the different star ratings, and this wouldn’t make it a desirable product to promote. As mentioned before, the product must give confidence to a prospective buyer.
The number of top reviews or with the highest rating must be more than the lower reviews combined to actually give some sort of indication that it’s a good product.
In most cases, the majority of reviews are correct and the odd few low reviews are exceptions. As long as there are more good reviews than bad ones then buyers will usually overlook this and still make a purchase.

Square Enix announces Bust-A-Move Universe for 3DS, first trailer inside

 

Ultra Bust-A-Move! Bust-A-Move Live! Bust-A-Move Revolution! It's too bad the title “Bust-A-Move 3000” already got used for the GameCube iteration of Taito's long-running Bubble Bobble spinoff: surely we've gone through close to 2,999 previous entries in the series. But hey, one's as good as another (usually), so if Taito parent Square Enix wants to put out a 3DS edition, we've got no complaints.

If we tell you that the new game, Bust-A-Move Universe, will feature loveable dinosaurs matching up three or more bubbles in a variety of game modes including Puzzle, Challenge and Nonstop, we'll trust you not to freak the eff out at such unexpected news. So if we add that, this being a 3DS title, there'll be some not-at-all-token three-dimensional goings-on (probably in the area of background-prettification,  there being no need to reinvent Bust-A-Move in full 3D just yet), we're assuming you'll be able to call the hospital and arrange your own heart-attack recovery plan.

Come on. It's Bust-A-Move! You know exactly what you're getting: it'll be plenty of fun and the box won't be the worst ever, because they've already done that.

Dead Space’s Isaac Clarke sneaks into Dragon Age 2

 

Clearly there's more than a little mutual appreciation going on between Dead Space 2 developers Visceral Games and the Dragon Age 2 crew at Bioware. Players of the latter, EA promises, will hear bards' tales recounting the exploits of demon-slaying knight Ser Isaac of Clarke. However, if that's not a cheeky enough in-joke for you, Ser Isaac's distinctly familiar-looking armor will be available to players themselves.

Dragon Age 2 players whose taste for fantasy-horror transcends any one game might well pick up Dead Space 2 as well, what with the two sequels both due for impending release. Rather than divide audiences between “dark fantasy with sword-dismemberment” and “dark sci-fi with plasma-dismemberment,” publisher EA will reward players for spreading their efforts between the two titles. Players who pick up Dead Space 2 will receive a one-time activation code to unlock Ser Isaac's armor within Dragon Age 2 as well.

We've got our doubts as to whether it'll go so far as to display your character's health within the faithfully-recreated back-panel – Dragon Age has its own HUD, after all – but hey, you offer a cool thing for free, we set to work finding its shortcomings. Welcome to the Internet!

Windows phone 7 will unleash App kill switch for the very first time

Did u hear first time ?? i know what u think when some one asked you about App kill switch.This option is in windows phone 7.Todd Biggs, speaks from Windows Phone Marketplace justified:

Samsung Flexible OLED display Hands-on

If there is one commonality that all high-end smartphones embody, it has to be none other than the fact that they're all simple pieces of slabs at their core -- and nothing more than that! However, every now and then, we are greeted with a kind of device that manages to stray from the tried and true design of today's contemporary smartphones. Even before the first official day of CES kicked off, we were able to check out Samsung's booth during Pepcom's event and witnessed something truly imaginary that makes you wonder about the endless possibilities that can grace future smartphone designs.
