I love making money online. Back in 2002 when I had no physical products to sell, I made do with clickbank. Clickbank let me sell other people’s stuff and earn up to 50% commission. That was cool. I made an average of $1000 a month using various domains selling a single product per domain.
Then I went for Commission Junction. This didn’t do so well for me. Not only were commissions low, their product line didn’t quite match the depth and breadth of Clickbank.
Then just last year, I discovered Amazon Associates affiliate program. Heard Amazon? Hello?? They’re the biggest online bookstore in the world. Scratch that. They’re now the largest online retailer in the world. They carry not just books, but CDs, lawnmowers, Gucci and even goldfish bowls. Yep. Everything you can shake a stick at.
At first I was reluctant to sign up because Amazon offered a paltry 4% to 8% commission. I changed my mind when I realized they actually give you a whole store, fully brandable with your company, and infinitely customizable with your content.
Okay, I admit, I make only $500 a month from the Amazon program- but heck, that’s gonna change when I hurdle the Amazon Associates learning curve.
Maybe next month, it will match my clickbank earnings.
Check out Amazon. It may be your ticket to quitting that day job.
