K guys, today is the 14th and i made an experiment which i started on October, 1st. I made over EU 14.000 this two weeks and you can read about it on my squidoo lens. (The lens is not live yet but i think it should be accessible and readable already: http://www.squidoo.com/rich_with_amazon/ I want to give back to the community and just finished my new blog on Squidoo http://www.squidoo.com/rich_with_amazon/ where i will tell what method i use to make that much money. I told everything except the specific niche/products i used. Today is the 14th and the two weeks are over and the blog-entry there is the result of my experiment: 14.000 Eurobucks in two weeks, climbing ! In short: PPC and high-priced items on amazon and an excellent niche! Cheers, Georg.
There is something fishy here, i work with amazon, and after you bypass the 1000 euro threshold, they will increase your commision at 7%. when you will pass the 10 000 euro they will increase the commision even more, or this was when i used to work with them. So, why does your commission show only 4% despite having such a high commission?
Great result . Thanks for the post and especially mentioning Amazonhunter, I just now discovered that tool thanks to your post
to avoid the EU 10limit per sale, no matter how big the sale Thats why i say: If you do sales with products $250 and up...switch to classic model. Ok, this applies to electronics only...but a must if you sell high priced electroncs ! Otherwise you're stuck with 10EU cap.
I already have an affiliate account at Amazon.com. How do I make sure my account is set to the "classic" mode, rather than the other commission structure
Very nice! Congrats on such great success!! I do have one question.. Did you have the PPC ads follow amazon to the home page or did you actually bring potential buyers right to the product page? One other question- how many different products did you promote?
Try this in the USA and your advertising costs (AdWords) will be greater or equal to your Amazon revenues. I don't speak German. Therefore, I am SOL.
That was a nice "paycheck" for just 14 days of work. I wish I would get the same and quit my day job. Good job, by the way. And how much did you spend on PPC? -Muhammad
So find a hig paying niche and use optimized adwords to drive traffic to your ads. You are giving this valuable informtion to us because you want to give something back to the community. Nice. My dump brain I thought you are telling this becuse you want some sales from Amzon Hunter as well.
normally 4% but I have got any commission so far as noone purchased through my sites, is amazon paying impressions?
I want to make money with amazon affiliate program but I don't know where I should start. You gave me inspiration.
If you use classic model then you must be selling a great deal of electronic goods . And I've been meddling in the same area as well, and this is not easy at all. Thanks fo the inspiration.
