WOW! My first commission

Hello WA Members, I just pass by to tell you that I´ve made my first commission here since I joined this wonderful community.

Well, after launching my first website on the 20th March, two months after, (20th May) I noticed that I have 1 ordered item, in my Amazon´s account, when I was working on new links for another post, but in the total earnings I had $0.

After some digging, I see that someone had made a purchase of $51.99, but the order wasn´t shipped yet, thats why the $0 appear in my account.

By luck, I refresh the page, and the stats were updated, and "VOILÁ" I see appear in my Total Earnings a modest commission of $2.08.

I see its not a big commission, but at least its a start, it gives us motivation to move forward.

By the way, that commission was made by a text link in my website that have send the visitor to Amazon, but the sale that I earned was not the product that I was promoting, because He/She ended up to buy a related product.

Remember that Amazon has a cookie that lasts for 24H after clicking in your link.

Finally I just want to say, that, yes its possible to achieve your goals, if you put some effort and determination...and never give up, because if the others can , we can do it too.:)

See you All.
