Best way to rank an E-commerce site fast? [GOOGLE]

[InkCartridgesFast]

Does anyone have experience in ranking E-commerce sites? I'm trying to rank 1000+ subcategorys and 300+ products. All less than 1k Exacts some are just 20ish some go up to 1k. I've used Traffic Travis all keywords are ranked as [Easy] along with the tools here.

My competition have 0 backlinks to there sites. Some sites have PR1-4 (only 2-3 per SERP rest are 0 so should be quite easy.

However I'm up against Amazon and Google shopping for the products.

Anyways what would you guys recommend me do?

Same thing you do for every site. Make sure it's easily crawlable. Implement a good design. Make sure your page titles lead with your KWs. Create useful content on each page, that is better than the pages you are trying to beat (Amazon).

Trying to "rank fast" isn't always a great option. It may lead you down some paths that will cause your site harm in the future.

After your site is set-up nicely, build some links from the top down (Homepage and Top Level Categories). If the KW difficulty is low, you should be able to rank fairly quick by having a strong domain and an optimized title tag for a page with good content.

Beside great content, great domain you will need great links on great sites.

There is no real shortcut. It's not about what you lauch, it's about how people react to what you put.

As above really.  Build links by offering your products to bloggers for product reviews, this is dependent on value of your products, relevant blogs will also drive traffic and sales too.

You also want to make sure you can get most/all of your products in GoogleBase (shopping feed) to maximise your organic visibility, check our Google's Merchant Center.
