I’m so happy for my biggest achievement so far – my First Sale on Amazon! This means that my website finally sells! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to see my first commission & I’ll immediately explain why.

Last night I got Amazon e-mail informing me about realized commission and some problem with my account mentioning possible reasons that caused the problem. I already new what has caused the “problem”. Due to my not having any result in 180day-period that Amazon gives to all affiliates… , my account became inactive, but, I kept my Amazon affiliate links on blogs/product reviews. They were working properly (I was checking them from time to time). So, Amazon e-mail showed me that someone had purchased from my site.

However, I won’t be able to enjoy my first commission… I don’t mind (actually, I mind a bit), but, what really matters is reaching my first & biggest goal so far– the FIRST Sale!

This is also a proof for me that Affiliate marketing works. Reading about others achievements gives you hope, but… everyone is waiting to have his own experience:) This 1st sale is really a Huge Step in Affiliate marketing. Your commission can be low as 1$, or 50cent - it doesn’t matter. What matters is that your site sells! And… if there’s the first sell, there would be many more…

Keep being focused and persistent. All the best!

Thank you, Vesna I did not know about the 180 days good to know.

You're welcome:)
Best regards

Well done Vesna. I've had a commission from another affiliate network but nothing from Amazon yet. Thanks for letting us know about the 180 day thing. Must keep an eye on that.

Thank you, Sue:)
Wish you the best of success!

Congratulations, the system works!

Thank you! And yes - the system works:)

Bummer you couldn't collect the commission, but congratulations on your start.

Thank you, Joe:) What's also pity - is not having any feedback
regarding that sale...
Kind regards & all the best!

Thanks. I haven't yet made a sale, but plan to get someone to make about 3 purchases for me before the 6 month period expires.

Be careful with these purchases. Amazon tracking system and rules are very strict. I've read (on Google) that Amazon can block your account if your family or friends purchase... The info is not double-checked, but... Read more regarding Amazon rules. Amazon disclaimer should be on y/r site as well...

Okay. Thanks.

Congratulations!! It all starts with the first sale :)

Thank you, Durukan!:) The first sale is really important.
Wishing you the best of success, too!

well done! Keep it up!
