Made my first sale(s) on Amazon
Three days ago I discovered that I had made my first sale on Amazon, and I've just made another sale today, which is kind of awesome as I'm finally getting a confirmation that I'm doing something right. Someone has also signed up for some kind of service at Amazon and I've gotten a fee for it, which is a massive fluke, but i'll take it.
I haven't been very active on here yet, but I just thought I'd share this, as reading about people who's making some kind of progress with their sites is what has kept me going with this.
I've been at WA for 6 months and I spent the first three months focusing mostly on taking all the certification courses, and watching a lot of Jay's great webinars. I worked on my first site for over 3 months before I decided to put it on hold and try another niche.
My new site isn't 3 months yet, and I only got about 15 posts on it and not a lot of traffic yet, but I know that it takes a bit of time before Google starts to trust it and rank it, and if I can make a small amount of money on it already, there's potential for making more in 6 -12 months time if I regularly produce quality content with good keywords.
If you're reading this and haven't made a sale yet, don't give up as it might be just around the corner, and if you're in doubt about something, rewatch the trainings and webinars and ask people here, as from my experience, they will be more than willing to help.

Well done Jonas for your hard work and making good progress, very good things ahead!
Enjoy your day.

That "fluke" you are talking about is NOT a "fluke". When you send someone to amazon for even a $2.50 product. Amazon drops a cookie and you get credit for anything they purchase for sending them there. Not just the product they clicked on. I believe the cookie lasts 24 hours ( I could be wrong). Awesome news keep it up
Thanks. I know about the cookie, just don't think people are going to keep signing up for the audible romance package after visiting my site. Or maybe that's my next niche...heh :)
That is great Jmatic.
I know what it feels like to make that first sale. Mine was almost 6 years ago when I was doing affiliate marketing the hard way. Using traffic exchanges and safelists.
It still feels great to see something for your efforts. Keep posting and staying active and those sales will grow.
Hope you much success on your journey here at WA.
