How does free shipping to the US and charging for international shipping affect rank?
I want to offer free shipping to people in the US but still charge shipping to those living internationally. How does Amazon rank a listing like this? Is it wiser to only sell to buyers in the US and charge free shipping rather than a hybrid (charge free shipping to US and charge for outside of the states)? I just don't want to lose a potential customer base by not offering products to those outside of the US.
