About 3 months ago I made $131 from someone who decided to shop for (what seemed to be) his city. 

 

It's a great feeling. Congrats

Wow, $131! That's awesome! Laugh 

Did they buy a bunch of small items or a few expensive things?

It probably works the best when you have a specific product you are talking about.

Then listeners clicked on the Amazon links only because they wanted to help support the podcast. Besides that, I think someone bought some motor oil once. Motor oil? Amazon? What makes you come to my site and think, hmm....I should get motor oil!

I've started using Amazon for the images I add to my posts.  I get very few sales for items I actually link to, most sales are from people clicking on one of my links and then buying something else.

By the way Edward, you just became a lot cooler since you're from my state! Wink

Do you have a relative in another state whose address you can use? Colorado I'd blocked as well, but my native NJ isn't.

Hey everyone,

I just want to share our success story on Amazon Associate last month. 

Amazon shipped 36 items and we made $25.91 in referral fee! 

I know it's not much, but $25 is amazing compare to the $2 we made last year. 

Anyway, hopefully we'll be able to keep increasing our Amazon earning in the future. 

 

Tip - Add affiliate links in as many articles as you can. People click over and then they browse and buy all kind of stuff.

congrats!! Thanks for the info!!!

I got about $15 the other day from them. I know it's not much, but when I got absolutely nothing from them last year I'll take it. It was a good reminder to me to include more links to items from Amazon in my posts.
