Allow buyers to search and browse your books on your website
Using Amazon.com's new Web Services technology, WhiteOakBooks.com will create and
maintain your Amazon Marketplace book inventory on your own website for a low monthly fee.
Once setup, the book inventory portion of your website will not require maintenance on your part.
Customers will be able to browse and search your inventory... only leaving your site when they
click the 'Buy From Amazon' button; after the book has been added to their Amazon.com Shopping Cart.
No more sending your customers to Amazon's website
where they can see that there are 100 copies of the book you are trying to sell, starting
at $1.00. You invited the customer to your website... do not risk losing them another
Marketplace seller by directing them to the Amazon.com website page before the sale is made.
