In the last month, StoreStacker was reviewed by 3 known blogs(Chow, Zac and lastly Gyutae) in the MMO(make money online) field. I don't have a problem with that. But they only mentioned part of story.
Deindexed BANS, phpBay... StoreStacker next?
Those of us that used other scripts like BANS, phpBay... have noticed that Google will eventually deindexed many of them. They all got hit eventually. StoreStacker will be the next one and it's just a matter of time.
If you read the StoreStacker main page, it will deliver relevant articles. But this is will be duplicate content and Big G will see it as a footprint to track your site.
How to avoid getting deindexed?
Don't get me wrong, I do like the idea of having a site that auto generate like StoreStacker. But like BANS, phpBay, you will need to add original content to make the Big G happy. That's where most get into troubles and yes, including me. I, however, do take full responsibility for my deindexed sites.
If you just install the script in it's basic form, you will look like all the others that did the same. Big G will detect that and not pass visual inspection.
Too many choices
One of the common mistake webmaster do with niche stores, it's to give to many choices to visitors. The same principals for BANS will apply to StoreStacker. I already posted about this.
You want to get paid but when?
If you have just a few sites, you will need to drive a lot of targeted traffic to them if you use more than one affiliate per store. You see, if 3 buyers buy from affiliate A, B and C, your chance of meeting the minimum payout will be divided by 3. You will have to wait much longer to get paid. Since StoreStacker support more affiliates than BANS, I suggest to use one affiliate per site.
If you have a large network of sites, this won't be a real issue most don't have that luxury.
Conclusion
You may or may not agree with me but those should be taken into consideration when you build a StoreStacker to avoid being deindexed and get paid faster.
At this time, I did not own StoreStacker because I'm too busy with AuctionSiteWriter. ;)
