Feeling a bit disappointed

Feeling a bit disappointed

I am feeling a bit frustrated and disappointed today. I have been working very hard on my website since coming back to WA in full swing last October. I have received lots of positive feedback for my blog. I am getting traffic - from WA, Facebook, and organic. However, it is not converting into sales. This morning I have woken up to an email from Amazon Affiilates to say as I haven't had a sale within 190 days I have had my account cancelled.

I have a number of posts that link to Amazon products - now they are useless so even if my traffic clicks I won't get the benefit. Just don't know what to do. They said I could apply again when I have traffic. Do I apply for the program and hope like crazy that I get conversions in the next 190 days or do I build up my traffic first? If I build up my traffic first and people follow the links then I don't get the benefit and I miss the sale. I am so conflicted as to which way to jump.
