Hi guys,

I am still shaking here! Can't believe what i just saw ! Finally I made my first $ with my website!!

I was randomly logging in to my Amazon Affiliates Account because I needed an affiliate link for some testing on my website and I hadn't been checking Amazon for at least a month now ( because nothing ever seemed to happen down there...) and BOOM! There it was !! My first earnings from my affiliate links!

I hadn't made 1 sale but 2 sales on different days! :D

Ok, it's not a fortune but I made my first 7,21 $ ! (Quite some expensive products I sold but with a low fee of 4 and 2,5% of 163,99 $ there nothing much left) but it's A START :) and fees will get higher soon.

Funny thing is that Amazon wanted to throw me out because I hadn't make any sales yet and I got the sale the exact same day I got the message.

I needed a sign...

To be honest with you I have a bit down and discouraged the last month. Nothing seemed to go the way I wanted and I had worked so hard for 3 months that getting into the fourth without any earnings at all made me doubt myself and I was slightly loosing motivation some days (as some of my closest friends here will know).

I started to leave my website behind because I thought I was getting nowhere with it. Just watching it made me depressed some times...So I tried to focus on the training and I was looking some other ways to make money and gathering ideas for later. I never gave up, I just try to figure out other ways or maybe another website...

It will happen to you!

I am completely re-boosted now because I had the sign I was waiting for and I am going to work harder than ever to make this work!

So peeps, hold on! it took me almost 4 months to make my first sale and I remember that Kyle said he waited 3 months to get his first one .... :)

Who does the happy Dance with me?!
