I chose Amazon for my affiliate sales. Those sales have not materialized.

I have several blog posts with links to Amazon. What advise and direction do you have for me?

Thank you in advance for your help and suggestions.

Can`t give much help I`m afraid as am trying myself to get Amazon affiliate and finding it difficult.

Thank you for reading.
Good luck to you.

they would normally expect a sale with in six months, even if you do not achieve that you can always re-apply there are many other good affiliate programs out there to, do not worry just keep adding to your website

Thank you for the encouragement.
I will explore other options before I re-apply.

there are places such as affiliate window, some retailers have their own affiliate.. you can always check what products are you promoting

Thank you.

if you are not getting the traffic through your site then concentrate on getting a list of people interested in your niche together and giving information - still link through to sell some bits or find alternative affiliate programs who don't cut you off
but concentrate on the marketing of your material to get more visitors before applying again
good luck

Thank you.
I will concentrate on that list..

Walmart has a program you can try.

Thank you. I will look at that.

It can take a while before you get your first purchase. Sometimes there can be at least 600 clicks or more on an item, before someone purcahses something. So in all likelihod, the more traffic you get, the sale just might happen quicker.

How long do I have to wait to re-apply?

You can actually reapply right away or wait if you want to if you feel you want more traffic first. Once you reapply you'll have a new affiliate link. If you have family and friends who shop on Amazon, you can encourage them to shop via your site or link, if you're comfortable with that idea. It does not matter what they buy.

Thank you so much for the help and ideas.

Just make a new account and change all links from your posts with the new ones. I did the same. Somebody here in WA said that his Amazon account was canceled tree times till he made the first sale.

Interesting. They will allow me to use the same website and just have a new account?

I'll be facing that same problem too. I'm going to ad more popular products and reviews of those products. Bob

Yes, I will be adding more posts and additional products to boost traffic.

Jimbo mentioned some time ago that you can reapply.
If that doesn't work..
Try walmart through linkshare or
Yet wayfair through shareasale
I'm no expert but that's my suggestion of that's any good to you..

Thank you Paul for your help. I will look into those suggestions.

I have all 3 on my site, take a look at the website in my profile if you want. I'm using that site to learn the ropes so have no issue sharing it...

Drive traffic before you join an affiliate programme

I had traffic but now it has fallen off. Is there a benchmark for traffic needed before I re-apply?

I'm interested in seeing answers here. I'm about to lose my Amazon account due to no sales

We will learn together.
