Does WA Work? Here is Proof my Amazon Commission
Last Update: June 08, 2018
Some of you will know I have been re-working my website that was originally setup to promote an ebay shop I had. Now since sold.
I have been removing the links to the store and changing content to promote products on Amazon.
I have also been following Dylans Training to try and get more traffic to the website and over the last few month have been promoting my posts on Pinterest.
The first few months were slow as you'd expect then slowly but surely the traffic, CTR's and sales have been increasing.
The result a nice wee cheque arrived in the post to lodge in my account. Happy Days!
For all you newbies wondering does it work my advice, keep following the training and putting in the work and you will get results.
PS, I have another $200+ sitting on Amazon coming behind this and everything is moving in the plus direction so more cheques to follow please!

Ok that's brilliant I did it right just no sales yet and one sale had but Amazon said either me or someone I know brought something it wasn't me though so bit disappointing I did argue with them in email not argue just stood my ground but they said that so I give up on that one but will stick to the program how do I look up how much I'm earning on eBay do you know???

Yes exactly you may pick up a few sales early on but nothing consistent until you get out of the google sandbox and gain decent traffic.

Hey Jackie, Amazon do a great job in converting sales, you just need to get the traffic to them to begin with.

nice --- I have received payment for affiliate links with my old website I sold books on I used Godaddy but the WA platform is 10 to 1 better than Godaddy I just wish I had used WA before I choose Godaddy two years ago I made around 200$ a month with my affiliate programs and I would had been much further if I had choose WA.. I am here now and can not wait to see if I can turn that 200$ a month into 2,000$ a month with the WA platform I love this place Kyle and Carson made the best website builder in my opinion glad I finally made it here. Thank god for WA

The training is there so I'm sure you can make $200 go to $2000. Just keep building and training.

That is great! Nice encouragement for those working and hoping to get to the point of earning income soon. Can you not have links to your store, posted products from Amazon, as well as your Store label (along taskbar) on your site?

you can link to whatever you want on your website. He was changing things because the eBay shop he had got sold.

Exactly I wanted to get away from the problems of looking after inventory and physically posting items. Affiliate marketing takes all the stress away from that side of things although the profit margins for physical items is a lot lower. I was getting about 20% per item now its around 4% so I now have to make 5 times the sales.
RobertDoyle

But you can do some of both if you want? Also, just for clarification, which is a higher percent: physical items or affiliate?
tommo1968

Sure you can use a website to do whatever. You can sell directly on it send traffic to other selling platforms as I did with eBay or to affiliate platforms. Selling physical items on your own website you can make what you need if you can buy cheaply from Alibaba etc.
Selling on platforms will cost you fees 10% eBay 15% Amazon. Sffiliates on Amazon can expect roughly 4% but selling software on Clickbank you can make up to 75% on the product price. So as you can see there are many options.

3 weeks, wait until your 6 months before you see any real increases in traffic and that's if you put in a least 2 posts a week. It takes at least 6 months to get out of Googles sandbox. You will see traffic before it but not until they can trust your content. Keep following the training.

GOOD job my friend. WA works I have no doubt at all. I also have Amazon affiliate and doing my best at that. However I am made to understand I may be loosing commission because my ID does not appear. I leave you with my url as https://myobiba.com/ to confirm if what I am told is correct and how to rectify it. Congrats friend. I follow you now.

Excellent, I had my first 1000 day at the start of the month, was about 45 in commission. A bit lower than you but great all the same. Onwards to the 2000 day. :-)

Cool Zarina, how have you been working with Dylans approach, what ratio for info, reviews and best ofs are you doing? I'm always trying to tweak it to suit the big G.
Been looking at KGR "keyword golden ratio" this last week to see if they help me better index and rank. Although I feel low hanging fruit with Jaaxy is still a winner too.

I had mostly best of posts, but hired a writer to help me with info posts. For now it's about 15% info/how to posts, 15% individual reviews and 70% best of posts.
I will be adding more info posts to please the Google people but for now I have a lot of "money" posts. I'm making a few sales every other day (some are small, some are pretty big) but need to add more content for sure.
After our last convo on Dylan's training, seems like CTR to Amazon has increased, so that's good.

That's probably the hardest hundred bucks you're ever worked for. Not saying you haven't worked hard in your life, just this stuff is WORK!

I have measured my hours worked to the equivalent of college credit hours as well. In 3 months I have learned so much about web design, writing and video editing. When does the passive income start, this s*** is hard lol

Hey it takes a college degree 3 years of work then if your lucky you get a job to explore what you have learned. So if you can shorten that length by a few months or years so much the better.

Same as me. I am checking my analytics and Amazon account on a weekly basis (every Saturday) and for the last two weeks I have been seeing more and more progress. Hopefully it will continue tomorrow!
By the way have you ever looked at Payoneer? I use it to get paid by Amazon. Amazon pay into the Payoneer account and I transfer it to my account. Just an alternative to the cheque.
