#11 The Japan-related Web. Part 1: What it is

Posted by Bill Belew on January 15th, 2008 in Japan | Comments Off

Of all the categories of the Japan-related web that we have scrutinised, e-commerce is one that I had qualms with. (that is mainly because these sites do not have any content).

But they have been included because Japan-related e-commerce is the fuel that feeds the J-web.

How so?

No matter what form of advertisements one uses on a Japan-related site (banners, affiliate links, etc.) the actual advertisers are likely going to be Japan-related.

Even Google AdSense will probably display ads from Japan-related advertisers (based on your website's text).

Since your advertisers are Japan-related e-commerce sites your revenue depends on them (and their revenue depends on you).

So what kinds of e-commerce sites are out there?

What affiliate programs do they have and do J-sites know how to effectively use them?
