    Hey Yaros,

    Something I've always wondered is how you file and deal with email with so many stores? Do you have 1 main company email with a generic name that everything goes to and then you have folders? If so, what email do you respond from, just the generic unrelated one? Looks that way from your screen grab above.

    I set up Google apps to register a standalone @mydomain.com email but starting to wonder as I scale up/out if having multiple email accounts would be hectic. I think it would be now but thought the trust from @Domain would be powerful, you've maybe proved otherwise.

    Thanks

    Hey Yaros,

    What platform are you using, Shopify? Is this a free shopify theme or a paid one?

    Yaros. I thought your sales data was in US dollars. So, sales aren't 404,00 rather, it's actually 4,040.00...good idea but that scared me ..here is was think you are making 400k a month selling Harold Potter gear...lmao.

    For each store I create an email like on cPanel (server). Then I setup redirect from these emails to my company gmail. On Gmail I create a unique label for each store to manage my emails easily.

    This is actually really great

    if you launch this plugin it would sell really nicely i know id be a buyer and if you do sell that plugin you would also be letting other people into a technique that you created

    double edged sword you got there :p

    Hi Yaros

    Im assuming you use AliPlugin? Have you tried ShopifiedApp for any of your shopify store (if any). Hows is that for a buy? The review and functionality looks impressive. Although it on the higher side for one time payment now (open thru affiliates only) - ~$900. How is Oberlo as an alternative, your thoughts?

    Hi Yaros, I'm new in the business.
    Could you help me understand very well the aliexpress plugin?
    Can I make markup on Aliexpress prices on my WP Website?
    Where the Checkout is done?
    Can I make a personal delivery address since I've an agent at Guangzhou where the vendors can drop goods and I'll make the shipping by myself?
    How to withdraw the money and by which interval of times?
    Can I hide all information about Aliexpress on my Wp Website to make people more confident in my Website?
    How to secure my Aliplugin from frauds to avoid requests of refunds from not known customers?

    Thanks for your reply.

    PS I add you on skype. My Skype Id is ayoelectronics

    AliPlugin is for building affiliate sites only. I am using another my plugin. It does not deal with Shopify, I am working with WordPress only.

    Once again, AliPlugin can be used for building affiliate sites only, it does not support a dropshipping business model.

    Hi Yaros,
    I would like to ask you few questions:
    1) In your dropshipping store, if a buyer buys multiple items, let say 7 items, how do you place the order in Aliexpress?
    If the 7 items from your stores belongs to 2 sellers on Aliexpress.
    So you just send the 7 items in 2 different packages to your buyer?

    2) I have seen your SevenKingdomMart, all the product feedbacks are real?
    Or you created them?

    Thanks in advance for answering :)

    Hi Yaros

    Do you have Amazon affiliate store sites to sell as well?

    Thanks.

    Hello Yaros,

    well done. you are very successful.

    I noticed you sell affiliate Aliexpress webstores as well with Aliplugin.

    If we order an affiliate webstore, do you also do niche research and find out what niches are profitable and not highly competitive and create categories based on the keywords and do on page SEO, just like how you do for your own affiliate webstores?

    I am not affiliate with Aliexpress yet, do i have to be their affiliate first before i order an affiliate website from you or i can apply to be an affiliate after you create my webstore?

    Thanks in advance :)

    In this case a client gets packages separately. No problems with it so far. The reviews are real.

    Yes, I provide a full service for custom affiliate sites. You can order it before applying for Ali program.

    Hi Yaros,
    Thanks for the reply!
    You said all the websites that you created just around few months time, how did you manage to get so many feedbacks?
    If you dont mind, can you please share with me,
    - How did you do your marketing?
    - How did people find your site (For example: Empire needs you) and buy from your site (leads to a successful transaction)
    - Did you spent money to do advertisement else where?

    Thank you so much!

    Marketing?) I think you should check this thread more carefully. All my strategies are described here. Feel free to contact me on skype: yarosnevsky if you have questions.

    Regarding testimonials there are many of them you can take from AliExpress.

    Sometimes instead of buying from Aliexpress I recommend checking some other marketplaces, at least ebay for getting the best deal.

    For example I am selling this product for $59.99.

    [​IMG]

    And usually order it from AliExpress seller for $34.99.

    [​IMG]

    So, my profit was $25.

    Recently I found the same product on eBay for only $12.36!

    [​IMG]

    So, my profit now is $47.63. Feel the difference.
