Yes oh bring it on US!
One of the challenges I faced when I closed my online store and changed it to a blog is that I wanted to market Amazon products - simply because they are one of the biggest online stores with the most trust...
The problem is that my online store only supplied to South Africa so most of my traffic has been from South Africa. I have been working hard for the last close on 2 years to build up my US traffic but it has been tough as can be.
While you can buy from Amazon if you are in South Africa, well technically speaking you can, but in reality I have hardly ever managed to make a purchase myself since most of the sellers just don't ship here.
I have just checked my traffic for November and it is 39% US traffic and 30% South Africa traffic. I am so chuffed and busy adding Amazon links to all my articles now!
I am affiliated with some stores in South Africa but I have my heart set on making USD and being an Amazon affiliate and it looks like I am getting closer to my goal.
I have made affiliate sales with Amazon but not enough to actually be paid out yet.
Watch this space!
