I have been a member of the Amazon affiliates program for quite sometime now, since 2005 to be exact and during all those years I only made one referral which earned me a measly $1.25 commission.
Until approximately 2 months ago when I decided to attack the referral of shoppers to amazon from a different perspective. I review and showcase new and old electronic devices on a blog called loopygadgets.com, and after doing some random searches on amazon one day I realized that 90% of the devices I showcase on my blog daily was already listed for sale on the shopping website. Then it came to me, to add the amazon link to that product at the bottom of each article I post daily.
With amazon this isn’t a difficult task either. Once you have signed in your associates account, each product you search for on Amazon, look to the top left corner you will see the option “Link to this page“ and it as simple as that. I started doing this hoping that eventually I would start making a few dollars from Amazon but I was really surprized when I clicked on the “Your Earnings Summary“ tab and saw that I made over $400 in commission in just one day. In conclusion, this worked because readers come to my website on a daily basis to get updates on new devices, so while they are seeking information I am also giving them the option to buy the device which they have been taking obviously. You can do this also, all you need is a blog, some really great content on new released gadgets or products offered by amazon, then sign up for an Amazon Associates Account.

This is the Amazon Earnings for yesterday, to start earning on Amazon you first need the following:
1. A Website or Blog which is in the Niche of the products offered by Amazon
2. An Amazon Associates Account
3. A little time on your hands
