1. The reason why amazon gets so many links is because of the traffic they create.
Well if we need to create traffic by link building but we do not have the traffic then how will we ever get a link? Well the keyword is content! Content, content content. Why does someone want to come to your site? Does your site have a purpose? Is your site interesting, fresh and offer what everyone wants on the web, Info? Even E-commerce sites should be more information than anything product. Which is the successful store, one that when you walk in a sales person helps you, shows you around and informs you? Or do you think the store where you have to wonder around fumbling onto things? People go back to the stores that they can find things easily and know that they are getting the best deal. Websites should revolved around the same concept.
2. Is your site simply optimized for the organic searches?

If your site is using keywords that when searched, have millions of other pages linked to that keyword, then maybe you need to rethink the keywords. Using keywords that give you a chance is the first place you start. If you have good content and some people can find you, your page will start to grow.
Three key things to make a successful website, does your site have it?
1. Successful websites have an appealing look and feel but also a functional navigation. Google has a nice clean look and feel that is appealing but it is very functional! The first thing that turns someone off your site is not being able to get where they want to quickly. This is a requirement for a successful website. Site also should have an easy design though. Think of websites you hate or just think, man these guys are unprofessional. The site has funky colors, its hard to read and it was put together by someone trying to do to much “design” and not enough “thought”. Rule number one, Always think about your sites design look but also the feel!
